Long, narrow, and typically without a courtyard unlike most landed properties, the inter-terrace typology can struggle to receive sufficient ventilation and natural light. As such, Adeline and Emmanuel, owners of this 3,500sq ft inter terrace in Yishun made it a priority to optimise daylight, as well as storage space, in their brief to their designer Yeep Mei Yi of Design Zage.
The couple approached the design firm after a previous project of theirs had caught their eye. The completed project had been expressed in their ideal aesthetic, a luxury resort-inspired contemporary style, so they felt confident that the Design Zage team could bring to life the home of their dreams.
