1. Symphony Heights by Proj. B Studio
Rather than downplaying the column between the dining and living areas, the designer cleverly used it to demarcate spaces and as the trunk of the sculptural tree whose branches function as shelves for both books and decorative items.

Although this tree may be another branch-shaped shelf, the entire space is designed as a built-up garden/park, with a swing bench and a screen of potted flowers nearby.

7. Bishan project by Lemon Concepts
Don’t want to commit to a three-dimensional, designed tree? The hand-drawn effect of the chevron patterned wall in this bedroom evokes a graphic tree effect without actually being a tree illustration; it’s the accessories such as the cage-like bedside lamps and the potted plant that give this room its Scandi-style woodsy wonderland feel.
