Designing a Space That Feels Like Home
663B Tampines St 64
The excitement and anticipation of purchasing a first home for a young couple in Singapore often start with the BTO. Each corner of the potential new space holds the promise of future memories — dinner parties, cosy nights in, and a growing sense of belonging.
Vision to Reality
The vision of transforming a house into a home starts by understanding the couple’s personalities and aspirations in order to reimagine a space that fits their needs. This journey is not just about updating a space; it’s an opportunity to imprint their personalities and aspirations onto a blank canvas. The journey begins with a spark of inspiration — a vision of how the couple wants their home to look and feel.
For a young couple that likes to host, an important requirement was to make the communal living space feel as spacious as possible, by knocking down bedroom 3 for an extended living and dining area.
They also liked having a designated foyer area to come home to, as a ritual practice of letting go of the work day as they step into the house. The foyer was designed to feel like more than just an entryway; it’s a comforting threshold, a space that marks the beginning of a personal retreat.
A separate study was also carved out in front of the bomb shelter to provide privacy, whilst still creating a space that feels connected to the rest of the room.
The house, once a blank slate, is now a reflection of our shared vision and efforts. The transformation from house to home is as much a symbol of our journey together and the future we’d love to help you build.
