At Yuan Interior Design, every home should reflect its owners' unique personality and lifestyle. This stunning transformation at 120A Tengah exemplifies how thoughtful design can create a harmonious sanctuary.
Project Overview
Location: 120A Tengah
Property Type: 5-room
Duration: 8 weeks
Concept: Japandi with natural “leaf” touches
What is Japandi?
Japandi is a design style that blends Japanese minimalism and Scandinavian functionality, creating a calm and harmonious aesthetic. It focuses on clean lines, natural materials like wood and stone, muted colours, and practical layouts. Rooted in simplicity, comfort, and a connection to nature, Japandi is perfect for those seeking a timeless and serene home.
Home Highlights
Entrance, Hallway, and Living Room:
The entrance sets the tone with concealed bomb shelter doors integrated seamlessly into a sleek feature wall. Linear LED lighting highlights soft wood accents, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. As you move into the living room, large windows let in ample natural light, softened by sheer curtains for an airy and tranquil vibe. A neutral palette of earthy tones, paired with a cosy curved sofa, embodies the balance of simplicity and elegance that defines Japandi living.
Kitchen and Dining Area:
The kitchen and dining area emerged as standout spaces. Softwood cabinetry, matte finishes, and a backsplash with delicate leaf motifs create a calming aesthetic. The dining space features a custom wooden table and Scandinavian-style chairs, with a modern pendant light as the focal point. Cleverly designed built-in storage ensures the kitchen remains functional and clutter-free, while soft lighting highlights the area’s elegant design.
Bathrooms:
Leaf-patterned tiles in the bathrooms tie the design together, adding an organic element to the neutral tones. Wet and dry zones are thoughtfully segregated, with built-in niches for storage, ensuring clean lines and functionality. Minimalist fixtures and soft lighting create a serene retreat for the homeowners.
Study Room:
Designed for productivity and comfort, the study room features a custom-built desk spanning the room's length. Built-in storage, overhead shelves, and integrated lighting combine to create a clean and functional workspace. Natural light streams through sheer blinds, further enhancing the calm and focused atmosphere.
Bedroom:
The master bedroom is a serene haven, blending muted tones and warm wood finishes. A built-in wardrobe offers ample storage, while a custom bedside niche with soft lighting adds comfort and functionality. A dressing area with ambient lighting complements the room’s tranquil aesthetic, making it the perfect space to unwind.
The Importance of Early Planning
The homeowners began working with Yuan Interior Design a year before receiving their keys. This early engagement allowed time to perfect every detail, from the concealed storage to the custom dining table. “YY’s ideas brought our vision to life while respecting our budget,” they shared. The result was a smooth renovation process completed within the planned eight weeks.
Homeowner Testimonial
“We had an incredible experience working with YY. She was very engaging and prompt, even before we collected our keys. Her ideas brought our vision to life without compromising our budget. YY kept us informed throughout the process and was always ready to assist, even after completion. Our new home is stunning and exactly how I envisioned it to be. I highly recommend YY to anyone seeking a reliable and talented designer who truly cares about their clients.”
