The Big Renovation Project

Ever wondered how a renovation is planned and executed? SquareRooms collaborated with Gain City for the Big Renovation Project, where we are giving you an inside look at three home renovations from start to finish. The first home featured is a four-room resale BTO unit in Punggol Drive that is occupied by a bachelor. Under the purview of local interior design firm Rezt & Relax, the new home is underlined by a modern-industrial design theme and is further punctuated with natural wood tones, culminating in a timeless and elegant home.

When we choose to renovate a home, we do it because we want to reconfigure the pre-existing layout and design of the home into a carefully curated space that will be able to cater to all of our needs and wants. Things were no different for the owner of this four-room resale BTO in Punggol, who wanted his new home to accommodate his love for cooking.

With the renovation project helmed by designer Cherlyn Tan from local firm Rezt & Relax Interior, a modern-industrial theme set the tone for the design of the home. This is evident right from the home’s main door, which was designed to reflect a scissor gate that is commonly used within the industrial sectors. Meanwhile, another distinct modern-industrial feature of the home is its monochrome and wood colour palette, which is echoed throughout all the rooms.
