Inside A Ryokan-Inspired Japanese Minimalist HDB Home
In this week’s episode, we explore a home with a unique blend of Japanese ryokan tranquility and the laid-back ambiance of an island resort. With a minimalist Zen aesthetic, the space exudes warmth and relaxation.
Situated in SengKang, this 1,200 sqft, five-room resale HDB flat offers a welcoming entryway adorned with rustic stone pavement tiles, providing a textured feel and convenient storage for commonly worn shoes.
Homes like this are as much about the property underneath as the design on top. The right layout, block and tenure make renovations like these possible, or much harder to achieve later.
That’s often where we help readers: evaluating the property first, before committing to a big purchase.
Over time, that’s also why we decided to work with agents who shared the same data-driven and advisory-led approach behind our editorial, consultants who could help readers think through decisions more objectively, rather than simply push transactions.
Today, the team has worked with more than 2,000 clients across over $5B in property transactions.
The living room, bathed in natural light, features blinds that offer control over brightness, ensuring a comfortable atmosphere.
A modular sofa, upholstered in bush leaf fabric, invites relaxation, while a customised Zen corner provides a serene space for enjoying a cup of tea.
The living area seamlessly connects to the dining space, enhanced by a customised sinted stone table with wooden legs, perfect for gatherings.
The kitchen, designed with efficiency in mind, boasts travertine sinted stone countertops and recycled textured tiles, exuding warmth and cosiness.
French doors in the common bath contribute to space efficiency, while the master bedroom prioritises simplicity, with a customised wardrobe serving as a standing dresser and side table.
Resort-inspired washrooms feature large, smooth tiles and textured accents, creating a comforting ambiance.
Though not without challenges, the homeowners are delighted with the outcome, finding solace and joy in their revamped space, perfect for relaxation and hosting memorable gatherings.
