Seven years ago, Gwen and YC renovated their matrimonial home, brimming with excitement and a touch of inexperience. Like many first time homeowners, they faced their fair share of regrets. Recently, they had the opportunity to start over.
"After years of sharing this space, we've formed new habits, discovered new needs, and gained a deeper understanding of what truly matters," Gwen explains.
This time, the couple was captivated by the wabi-sabi theme and enlisted Edwin to translate its abstract ideals into a liveable space. With his guidance, they were able to strike a balance between their desired simplicity and the practical considerations of daily living.
"While preserving the essence of our minimalistic aspirations, he provided valuable insights on optimising the layout and incorporating smart storage solutions. The renovated layout and design solutions solved problems from the previous renovation, and cater to our current priorities," Gwen added.
The reconfiguration led to an open-concept space that suited their hosting needs and the playful antics of their beloved Pomenarian, complete with smart storage solutions to conceal the clutter of their hobbies and interests.
Smart living
The couple also took this renovation as an opportunity to create a smart home. A single app consolidates the home's devices and appliances, from the door viewer and lock system to the water heater in the bathroom.
