How A Designer Built A Perfect Sanctuary Home For Her Family


In this week’s episode, we explore a tastefully designed condo located in a serene corner of Paya Lebar, Singapore. This 1,400 sqft residence, situated within an older condominium complex, offers a glimpse into modern urban living with a touch of timeless elegance.
The condo’s layout includes a private lift, enhancing accessibility and privacy for its occupants. Inside, rounded cabinetry edges and child-safe shelving demonstrate a thoughtful approach to safety and functionality, without compromising on style.

The interior design blends subtle carpentry tones with antique furnishings and splashes of vibrant colours, creating a relaxed and inviting atmosphere throughout.

The living room features floating shelves with curved corners, complemented by sturdy black metal rods, fostering an aesthetic of openness and minimalism.

Adjacent to the living area, the kitchen is designed with practicality in mind, featuring open metal shelving to maximize natural light and storage efficiency.

The dining space, connected seamlessly to the kitchen and study room via sliding doors, encourages social gatherings and versatile use of space.


The study doubles as a guest room, offering flexibility with its sliding doors that integrate it into the main living area.

Each children’s room is customised to reflect individual preferences, with bespoke shelving and themed décor catering to their interests, such as a passion for buses and a fondness for dusty pink.


Personalisation is evident throughout the condo, with carefully curated artwork and family photographs adorning the walls. Strategic use of colours and well-placed furniture further enhances the comfortable and homely environment.
Beyond the interiors, the balcony provides a serene retreat, featuring lush plants and ironwood decking that amplify the natural ambiance of the surroundings.

The master bedroom resembles a luxurious hotel suite, complete with ample storage, a mini-fridge, and a pantry area for added convenience.

Innovative design elements extend to the bathrooms, where window slats between the bedroom and bathroom areas facilitate connectivity and enhance natural lighting, underscoring the apartment’s commitment to modern living standards.

Overall, this condo in Paya Lebar encapsulates a harmonious blend of contemporary design and functional living, tailored to meet the diverse needs of its occupants.
