Stylish in appearance yet filled with comfort – contemporary-style homes often make for delightful family abodes with their spacious rooms that incorporate up-to-date decor elements, which highlight and communicate their owners’ sense of individuality. Things are no different at this striking 4-room HDB unit occupied by a young family of four.

The look of every nook and cranny in this apartment was well thought-out by Bowerman Interior Planner designer Chris Huang, who took great care in creating a varied yet complementary visual flow throughout the various rooms.

Taking things to the next level, however, is the apartment’s brand new layout, which plays an important role in giving it a neat and tidy appearance. As per the client brief for a functional and stylish abode, Chris completely transformed various parts of the home by tearing down existing structures and erecting various space-saving solutions in their place for a more open look.

One particular example would be the entertainment room that was customised to include a wall of cabinets that fully maximises vertical storage space, while cutting down on both visual and physical clutter. A similar modification was also made to the children’s bedroom, where a row of overhead cupboards was created above the sleeping zone as a convenient hideaway for personal belongings, such as books and toys.

Comfort and cosiness were also chosen as key decor themes to create a hotel-like interior, which the homeowners can retreat into following a hectic day at work.
