When you’re in a home that hasn’t been renovated in almost two decades, there’s a lot of room to get creative. It also means that the resulting changes will be dramatic. This condominium penthouse unit, untouched for 19 years, was dramatically transformed by the design team from J Design & Build across its two levels.
The homeowner requested for the new design to lean towards a modern contemporary theme with impactful accents and meticulous detailing.
“Upon purchasing this penthouse, my focus was on its spacious 2486-square-foot size, envisioning tearing down walls and reconstructing the space to create my dream home,” says the homeowner. “Opting for a modern contemporary style, I aimed to steer clear of pastel or neutral tones, deeming them dull and dated. To infuse vibrancy, I chose darker tones, yet avoiding an overly sombre atmosphere for my child’s sake. Collaborating with designer Ang Junjie, JJ, we achieved a harmonious balance in the design, which left me completely satisfied.”

Major work was put into this project, with walls hacked to create new cosy areas, modern accents added and several features customised for a personal touch. The entire home’s flooring was replaced with vinyl; the existing marble and parquet flooring couldn’t be preserved due to the extensive wall demolition, necessitating a complete replacement.
