Raw and refined

Couple's textured, modern-luxe HDB flat resembles a futuristic cave

- 

Combining dark modern luxe with raw textures, stone elements and artificial plants can be challenging, especially since the decor style is usually synonymous with refinement.

But the owners of this four-room Housing Board flat in Bidadari—a married couple who work in financial consulting—knew Wolf Woof design director Carmen Tang was up to the task.

No surface of the 980 sq ft unit was left untouched. Fluted panels, mirrors, faux rock and carpets cover the walls, ceiling and floor.

The aim was to have multiple textures throughout and to juxtapose grungy elements with polished surfaces.
