Serene Botanica: Earth and Light
This project is a masterful orchestration of natural textures, olive greens, and walnut woods. The design prioritizes spatial dissolution, sacrificing a secondary bedroom to create a massive walk-in wardrobe and master dry area. This strategic reconfiguration transforms the standard HDB/condo layout into a private, high-utility retreat focused on the homeowners' daily rituals.

The Master Bedroom: Organic Minimalism
Design Brief
Integrate substantial storage into a multifunctional sub living area without sacrificing the open, airy atmosphere or the connection to nature.
The Design Challenge
Balancing the heavy visual weight of floor-to-ceiling cabinetry with the requirement for a relaxing, uncluttered entertainment zone within a shared open-plan footprint.
The Design Solution
We implemented a custom wardrobe in a muted cream finish to minimize visual mass, featuring a recessed niche for functional depth. The adjacent media wall, finished in a signature rich olive green, provides a high-contrast backdrop for the walnut console, successfully bridging heavy storage utility with high-end aesthetic grounding.
The Master Suite & Vanity Retreat: Boutique Hotel Luxury
Design Brief
Transform the master bedroom into an expansive, self-contained suite featuring a dedicated vanity station and dressing area separate from the sleeping quarters.
The Design Challenge
Integrating a double vanity and significant wardrobe capacity without cramping the layout or disrupting the tranquil flow of the sleeping zone.
The Design Solution
A structural divider serves as a dual-purpose feature, housing the sleek double vanity on one side and wardrobe storage on the reverse. This architectural intervention creates a distinct dressing zone that preserves the flow of natural light from the balcony. The consistent use of cream joinery and walnut flooring ensures a fluid visual transition throughout the suite.
The Culinary & Utility Haven: Modern Rustic Fusion
Design Brief
An open-concept kitchen designed as a functional heart, balancing heavy-duty appliance integration with an inviting aesthetic for social entertaining.
The Design Challenge
Housing a washing machine, large refrigerator, and deep storage within a single-wall galley layout without creating a cluttered or purely utilitarian appearance.
The Design Solution
We utilized a two-tone cabinetry strategy: deep forest green base units ground the space, while warm timber upper cabinets add textural lightness. White subway tile backsplashes and quartz countertops enhance light reflectivity, while the cohesive joinery design hides laundry and cooking functions behind a sleek, unified facade.
The Botanical Shower Niche: Contemporary Nature
Design Brief
Carry the "Serene Botanica" green theme into a compact bathroom footprint to create an energizing, refreshing wet area.
The Design Challenge
Effective zoning of the shower and toilet areas in a small space without using bulky dividers that obstruct light and movement.
The Design Solution
A half-height masonry partition provides privacy for the toilet while doubling as an illuminated niche for shower essentials. We installed vertical olive-green kit-kat tiles to create a vertical focal point, drawing the eye upward to increase the perceived ceiling height against the neutral stone surroundings.
The Minimalist Wet Bath: Spa-Inspired Serenity
Design Brief
Design a wet bathroom that prioritizes raw stone textures and diffused light to evoke a "natural grotto" shower experience.
The Design Challenge
Achieving a high-end, textured aesthetic in a strictly functional wet area while ensuring long-term durability and easy maintenance against moisture.
The Design Solution
Large-format stone-effect tiles wrap the walls and floors in a cohesive grey finish, eliminating visual breaks to expand the perceived space. Minimalist chrome fixtures emphasize the tactile quality of the stone, while a white louvered door adds resort-style ventilation and airy contrast.
Mood Palette: The Luxury of Space
The material narrative of Serene Botanica is defined by the dissolution of standard HDB structures. By reallocating square footage from a secondary bedroom into a Master Dry Area and Walk-in Wardrobe, the design prioritizes high-tactility materials—fluted timber, artisanal olive tiles, and veined stone—to create a private sanctuary that values daily ritual over traditional room counts.
