In this week’s episode, explore a 4-room HDB flat in Yishun, designed with a modern interpretation of the Southern Chinese Nanyang movement.
The 980 sqft home features two bedrooms and two baths, revealing a thoughtful balance between lifestyle and spatial needs.

Beginning at the entrance, a Peranakan mosaic tile corridor provides a warm welcome, leading to a dining area with a four-to-six-seater table.

Organic-shaped pendant lamps illuminate the space, complemented by ample natural light through windows.

Moving into the living room, a minimalist TV wall and a three-seater sofa create a cosy atmosphere. A notable feature is the modern, minimalist altar area, seamlessly integrated into the home.


The kitchen, showcasing Peranakan tiles and stone countertops, offers both under-counter and over-counter storage.

The HDB’s home improvement programme updated the bathrooms, featuring an innovative hidden door. A strategically placed wall visually hides the entrance, enhancing the overall aesthetic.

The master bedroom combines a wardrobe room and a restful sleeping area, separated by an automatic curtain.


The flexible space includes a queen-size bed and side tables, providing adaptability for changing needs over time.

Special thanks to the homeowner for letting us tour their lovely home. If you’d like to get connected to their ID for the design of your own home, you can reach out to them here.
