Designworx Interior Consultant demonstrates how large penthouses and bungalows can feel like warm and personalised spaces
A Refined Approach

Large, spacious homes fulfil the desire for more room, but can often look and feel cold. Much like how it takes specific skills for artists to paint large canvases, designing penthouses and bungalows requires an experienced and expert eye to create a warm and luxurious ambience.

Designworx Interior Consultant has built a sizeable portfolio of Good Class Bungalows (GCBs) and penthouses over the years, putting its signature stamp on these properties by turning them into personable living spaces. Led by design director Terri Tan, the interior design company is known for crafting interiors with an understated yet luxurious feel.

“When working on bungalows and other large homes, we take extra care to ensure that they do not appear like cold ‘trophy’ spaces,” says Tan. The design team pays close attention to the material palette, proposing high-quality materials and finishes, as exemplified in these two abodes: a Reflections at Keppel Bay penthouse, and a GCB at Maryland Drive.
