A Bachelor’s Industrial-Inspired 4-Room HDB Home With A Garden Balcony


In this week’s episode, a homeowner shares their vision for a space that brings people together. Designed with an industrial yet warm aesthetic, the home balances raw materials with thoughtful openness.
Terracotta tiles define the entryway and balcony, contrasting with concrete flooring throughout the rest of the space. Old-school window grilles add a nostalgic touch, while minimal built-ins provide flexibility.

The living area is anchored by a concrete console that doubles as storage and seating. A load-bearing column, initially seen as an obstacle, now subtly divides the living space from the workspace while maintaining openness.

An angled wall allows maximum natural light into the home, seamlessly connecting the interior to the balcony.
The balcony, a non-negotiable element, serves as a lush retreat where the homeowner unwinds.

With an emphasis on functionality, the kitchen is designed for ease of movement and efficiency, omitting overhead cabinets for a streamlined look.

Throughout the home, design choices reflect a balance of practicality and character, ensuring a comfortable and adaptable space for hosting and daily living.
