Gorgeous, cohesive space

2 months ago

I love how the 3 areas of functional (living, dining, kitchen) converge so seamlessly! Could you please share any info about the dining chairs?

Really appreciate all the positive comments! The concrete surface was coated with a layer of clear sealer for easy maintenance.

What do you think of a mirror for the backsplash on the kitchen? You cant see the pic here, but it faces a huge window on the other side of the room. I love the idea of grey/ dark cabinets, (with a wood coloured surface worktop) but might cost a small fortune to rework it. Will check on prices. The wallpaper idea is also really nice - much to mull through. so hard to decide! I'm thinking of replacing the dining table set with a booth + round table seating and maybe add a mirror behind it space. Not sure if i can fit a whole L booth into the dining space and still fit in a table, so might just settle for a booth on one side.

Thanks for your comments, its great to discuss with houzers! You are so right @decoenthusiaste the view is beautiful and one reason why I chose the apartment. the room is longer than it is wide, and I wanted the kitchen/bar to be included in the seating so the attached pic is how I was planning to lay it out. @cdrdesign I can't/change the table, its a gorgeous mahogany piece I had custom made and one I see keeping for some years yet! I dont plan a TV in this room, will put it in another room. This room in for living and entertaining guests. Sorry I dont have layout software, so you will have to make do with my scribbles using powerpoint! Could really do with help on choosing the light fitting in place of the central fan- what would look nice here or should I wait till the furniture gets here to choose the light to match?

HDB Interior Design that Never Go Out of Style
Q
Comments (0)
In the year 1964, the government of Singapore decreed to provide its citizens a tangible asset in the country through what they call as the “Home Ownership for the People Scheme.” The government believed that an empowered citizen with a home of their own will eventually lead to a stable nation, economically and culturally. Since then, a lot of people in Singapore have resided in homes regulated by the Housing and Development Board or commonly known as the HBD. It is the main public housing authority and statutory board under the Ministry of National Development. Their goal is to provide the citizens with quality homes and environment suitable for living. They are guided by the concept of what they call as the “cohesive communities.” As part of its strict enforcement of their regulations, the Housing and Development Board do not allow renovation of the provided homes without their approval. If an individual wants to renovate an HDB house, he or she must seek and secure an approval and permit from the government agency to be able to carry out their tasks. A renovation without permit could mean penalties and sanctions from the HDB. Despite this strictness, people are still allowed to be given freedom and leeway to design their homes. There are a lot of HDB-accredited interior design companies which provide HBD renovation packages to give your pad a fresher and more unique look. Let’s take a look at some of the most beautiful design styles for HDB homes. Earthy tones palette – Nothing goes wrong with simple black, white, and earthy tones for your HDB interior design. The natural feel of earthy colors and palette will give you warm look, sophistication and feel acceptable for a lot of people. If you want a safe and surefire design for your small pad, you may want to consider doing earthy tones for it. Industrial – Because most of HDB homes are small, designs that are stylish yet functional are most needed. Using mirrors to create an illusion of wideness are commonly used by HDB renovation packages to visually enlarge the home. White and metallic colors can be used to provide a strong edgy look for your space. Funky and cool – If you are adventurous and love to experiment, try to splash your HDB interior design with funky and cool inspirations. Try to have fun with colors and the type of furniture. What is so special about this design theme is that it breaks the monotony of home spaces. It brings out the personality of an individual. Minimalist – Of course, the minimalist theme of design will never be out on this list. Sometimes, it is best to keep things in simplicity. White, black, gray and other neutral colors will work on this type of HDB interior designs. To cut the snooze, try to have centerpieces that are eye-popping. Accentuate the floor to make it stunning.
