Inside A Pottery Maker’s Small 786 Sqft Multi-Functional Home
In this week’s episode, a tour unfolds in an upper Serangoon three-room HDB dwelling, meticulously designed around the homeowner’s lifestyle and passions.
Hosting pottery sessions is a central theme, showcasing how the 1970s layout was reconfigured for communal creativity. This 786-square-feet HDB features one bedroom, one bath, and a spacious kitchen.
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.
Collaborating with Inside Out Studio, the homeowners transformed the space, beginning with the blush-colored front door that leads into an open expanse.
No dedicated entryway, but the immediate view captures a sizeable dining area. A 2.2-metre Jati wood dining table accommodates up to 10 people, resonating with warm and rustic charm.
Terracotta-toned windows, replaced with bi-folds, enhance natural light and cross-ventilation.
The microcement flooring creates visual continuity, allowing the two adopted dogs to roam freely.
The removal of a common bedroom expands into a living room, featuring an L-shaped sofa, indoor plants, and terracotta walls for an intimate ambiance.
Moving on to the kitchen, a large, L-shaped space integrates a bar counter and extends into the service yard, seamlessly housing laundry and doubling as a pottery area.
The bathroom, simple with white tiles, is divided into toilet and shower sections. Parquet flooring graces the comfortable master bedroom, featuring a queen-sized bed, open wardrobe, and study table.
The mix of materials, from plywood cabinetry to terracotta backsplash, creates a raw yet warm atmosphere. Explore this thoughtful transformation that balances functionality and artistic expression.
