WHO LIVES HERE
A bachelor in his 40s
HOME A three-room resale HDB flat in Jalan Besar area
SIZE 819 sq ft
ID Joey Khu Interior Design

This 42-year-old three-room HDB flat in Jalan Besar had a dark, congested interior when the homeowner bought it. A bachelor in his mid-40s. For the flat's renovation, he engaged interior designer Joey Khu - who designed his first home and gave him free rein in the design.
Facilitating this, Joey made major alterations to the flat's layout, opening up one bedroom to create an airy, open living-dining area and adding a wardrobe, general storage, and a kitchen made entirely of dark stained elm wood and stainless steel without inserting new partitions.
