Mixing tradition with modernity, The Scientist transformed this regular HDB flat into a fresh and timeless picture of modern elegance
While most young homeowners hanker after the trending industrial or Scandinavian styles that are becoming a common look in HDB flats, this newly-wedded pair went off the beaten track with a modern classic theme. However, these practical folks wanted their living space to carry an enduring quality – one that could take them through different life stages. With the renovation led by Alvin Ling and Katrin Ann from The Scientist, they reveal, “This young couple aspired for a bright and cheerful home which reflected their age and personalities. It should not be limited by a certain design style or period, but rather a fusion of the important details that matter to them.”
A modern design sensibility sweeps over the living space decked in a clean-cut yet dreamy color palette of whites and pastels. Keeping things light and airy, the designers teamed these pristine shades to perfection – so much so that it conjures a spacious-looking setting. The design duo also created a large open floor plan for the communal zones and an expanded configuration for the master bedroom. This would leave more room available for future amenities and the addition of new family members.
