You can tell a lot by a home account's Instagram name sometimes, and today's featureAs you can probably tell, E and XN are the sort that love to stay at home. And if you are going to be spending a lot of time at home, having a nice, comfortable, and cosy home would definitely be a big priority.
"Also, the flat's location allows us to qualify for HDB's Proximity Housing Grant as it's located within four kilometres from XN's parents' home," E added."We also love how spacious the flat feels due to its unblocked rectangular layout," she said. "This allows for a continuous flow from the kitchen to the living area, which was perfect for something we have always wanted – an open kitchen.
"We based our initial budget on the average cost to renovate a four-room BTO," she shared in retrospect, "but our flat size actually resembles that of a five-room BTO." She said that the original space was also painted in many bright colours like purple, pink, and orange, so they changed it. It gives off such calm and soothing vibes, and the little decorative pieces really help to bring a little more character as well.The original home didn't have a set dining room but just a small table tucked in the kitchen. And so, the pair also decided not to have a specific dining area.E said they don't cook or eat at home much, so they wanted their dining area to be multi-functional.
In this case, they created a decorative display rack to liven up both the service yard and the kitchen. To keep the design congruent, the pipes were painted black, which went well with the black-rimmed mirror, and bathroom fittings too. Accomplishing these monumental tasks requires an excellent ID that aligns well with the couple's vision. And they decided to choose Threehaus Works to help them in their journey.
Threehaus Works, on the other hand, was the only one who followed their brief and proposed ideas close to what the couple wanted. As for furniture, E shared that before they bought anything, they first did a mood board on what kind of design and colour scheme they would like to have. Then they set a budget on how much they are willing to spend for each piece of furniture.
The couple also did a few mock-ups of the different furniture they were interested in before buying, allowing them to have a good idea of how they would look together. Fortunately, they picked the right ID for them, who she said was responsive and responsible throughout the entire process. They didn't have to worry much about these major challenges because their ID team had settled these.
The couple learned the importance of flexibility because no matter how much they plan ahead, some things are just out of their control.
