For DESIGN REBIRTH, a beautifully harmonious relationship between form and function acts as the crux of every project.
THE DESIGN OF A HOME OR ANY HABITABLE space is a delicate balance between form and function. This principle guides all projects by Design Rebirth, and is a subject close to the hearts of its co-founders Yap Khoon Wah and Victor Loh. “Different abodes have different requirements but a home has to address the lifestyle and practical needs of the homeowners, in terms of spatial design, interior styling, furniture, furnishings and carpentry. These in turn, need to relate to an aesthetic concept that ties the overall scheme together,” says Khoon Wah.
Simple Pleasures
When the homeowner decided to move into her previously tenanted home at Hillcrest Road, she entrusted the task of doing up the interior to Design Rebirth through a friend’s referral. Her brief to Khoon Wah was to create a home with a modern luxe concept, one that is posh yet easy to maintain, practical yet cosy. Above all else, she wanted to keep things simple within the 5,000sqft abode.
