This week, we tour a minimalist, monochromatic-themed home at Clementi Peaks.
The unit is a five-room BTO flat, and the homeowners are a couple and their five-year-old son. In total, they’ve poured $80,000 in renovations to transform their 1,184 square feet space into what it is today.
Upon entering the flat, one is welcomed by a spacious entryway. The use of monochromatic colors sets the tone for the entire home, with a matte gray glazed porcelain tile flooring that extends throughout the common areas.
Adjacent to the entryway is the living room, characterized by concrete effect wall panels. Minimalist furnishings, including a gray armchair, a two-seater sofa, a speaker, and a standing TV makes the living room feel more spacious, with round furniture pieces softening the space, and cove lighting overhead creating a seamless flow into the rest of the home.

Moving towards the dining area, an extendable six-seater concrete laminate table takes center stage. Slim furniture legs allow for an uninterrupted flow of light, enhancing the openness of the home. To store display items, the homeowners opted for a black minimalist custom floating shelf instead of a bulky console, combining symmetry and asymmetry in the design.

The kitchen underwent a complete transformation, with walls removed to create an open layout. A two-meter-long island with storage on one side, and bar stools and a wine fridge on the other serves as a multifunctional space, occasionally doubling as a standing work desk. An overhead linear pendant light makes this area focal point when other lights are turned off.

The main kitchen countertop, finished in sintered stone, is complemented by a porcelain glazed backsplash.

A utility yard, separated from the common areas by glass bi-fold doors, offers additional countertop space and accommodates a washer-dryer setup.

The first bedroom belongs to the couple’s five-year-old son and features modular furniture that can adapt to his growing needs. The design prioritizes practicality, with furniture positioned close to the ground to ensure maximum security and accessibility for the young child.

Across from the bedroom, the common bath showcases terrazzo tiles that infuse character into the space. Contrasting jet black shower fittings, a sintered stone vanity, and a porthole mirror complete the bathroom’s stylish aesthetic.

The master bedroom combines two rooms. The first has been transformed into a walk-in wardrobe and dressing area. The entrance has been replaced with reeded glass panels to allow for diffused lighting, while a combination of opaque and glass display cabinets provides storage options.

The main rest area of the master bedroom maintains a clean and linear look, with a low queen-size bed, long strip sconce lights, and minimal furniture pieces. The use of walnut-toned wooden furniture and a limited color palette of four to five shades ensures a cohesive and minimalist atmosphere.

In the master bath, cream tones dominate the space. Notable changes include the installation of a unique egg-shaped toilet set, a circular metal vanity sink, and the addition of a niche in the shower area for convenient toiletry storage.

As always, special thanks to the homeowners for allowing us to tour their beautiful home.
