Home And Away by Ciseern

This HDB flat received a complete overhaul from design firm Ciseern in accordance to the homeowners’ requirements. The newlyweds live in Australia for eight years, and their first home in Singapore was to be just as stylish. Ciseern’s designers used only thee colours black, white and a light timber shades and supplemented them with a generous dose of personality.

After the home renovation was completed, this five-room executive apartment look dramatic yet sophisticated. An 8.4-metre dark feature wall stretches across the living hall. Thanks to the spacious layout of the room, the designers were confident that the matt black laminates would bring a sleekness to the room without making it look dreary. Hosting dinner parties and informal gatherings is now possible after the designer opened up the kitchen and installed an island counter.

Subdued glamour is key in the dining room. The designers achieved this with wood grain vinyl floors, a sleek wooden dining table and strong patterns on the upholstered dining chairs and settee.
