Home serves as a sanctuary where families unwind and connect after the day’s activities. It is a place where memories are built through shared meals, conversations, and moments of play. This Hougang Central executive resale flat belongs to Shuqi, an Occupational Therapist, and her husband Stephen, a civil servant. Both 35 years old, they envisioned a home that prioritizes comfort, functionality, and community.
The Living Room
To enhance the living area, the couple decided to remove the original study, opening up the space for both living and play. The abundance of natural light flowing into this area also brightens the adjacent kitchen. Instead of a traditional television, a full-height bookshelf takes center stage, inviting friends and family to engage in conversation or explore a book. This layout fosters interaction while allowing adults to oversee children playing nearby.
The Kitchen Area
The kitchen underwent significant changes, with the original wall removed and repositioned to make way for a dry kitchen and an island. This redesign not only enhances functionality but also creates a central gathering point for family activities.
The distinct wet and dry kitchen areas ensure practicality, with glass doors providing separation when needed. The triangular layout of the fridge, stove, and sink optimizes workflow, making food preparation efficient. Additionally, the close proximity of the dining area simplifies serving meals, reinforcing the kitchen as a hub for family bonding.
The Bedroom
The master bedroom features a minimalist design with thoughtful touches, such as a niche for a vanity table carved from a portion of the yard. This alteration brings natural light into the room, adding to its airy and serene ambiance. Over time, the space has transformed into a true reflection of their family’s needs and lifestyle.
The renovation journey with BuildBuilt began years ago, with the couple appreciating the firm’s clear design and build process. Their interior designer, Keith, provided valuable professional advice while incorporating the family’s vision for their home. Jessica, their project manager, ensured meticulous attention to detail and tight communication throughout the project, leaving the couple confident and satisfied with the results.
