Distinct Visual Languages Demarcate The Different Zones Of This Apartment
As far as BTO flats go, one could say that owners Javin and Crys have hit the jackpot. Besides its spacious 1,200sq ft size, their new apartment, which is on a lofty 18th storey, also has an unobstructed seafront view of the Johor Strait. As luck would have it, the couple are professional creatives—Javin and Crys being creative and art directors respectively—so to have the apartment’s interiors match up to its impressive attributes was hardly a question.

The couple engaged Joey Ong of Salt Studio for his interior design expertise and project management. It is worth pointing out that Javin is architecturally trained, so the design was much influenced by his ideas, which Joey then fine-tuned for execution. In terms of the brief, the couple wanted a balance of function and aesthetics: interiors that would wow yet withstand the test of time. They conveyed their desire for a contemporary take on industrial ruggedness and a need to incorporate a workspace and studio as they planned to do photoshoots at home.
