Combining simplicity with elegant design accents, this three-bedroom apartment is a comfortable haven for the entire family.
With local interior design firm A.W.A Design Studio – led by Allan Wang – at the helm of this renovation, the family of five occupying the three-bedroom apartment wished for a home that was simple yet modern. From the get-go, the 1,184-square foot space shows off an air of quiet sophistication. A consistent image can be found throughout the home in the form of a cosy interior defined by luxurious wooden tones that evoke a sense of warmth. However, beyond its humble appeal, a series of smart tweaks by the design team further enhances the overall functionality of the home.
Along the entryway, electrical services like the DB box are discreetly hidden from sight by large timber panels that encompass shoe cabinets within. Not only that, the installation of a retractable cushioned settee and a narrow mid-height ledge adds to the practicality of the foyer by allowing the occupants to sit while wearing their shoes.
