Open routine – by MET Interior

Designed for a young professional with a demanding schedule, this two-bedder condo is reworked to feel open, calm and efficient, balancing storage, flow and moments of quiet retreat.

The layout was reimagined from a long, narrow plan to improve openness and flow, with integrated storage reducing visual weight across the home. In the study, a raised tatami platform was introduced to create a flexible nook for rest. As designer Pei Yin from MET Interior explains, “We wanted the space to feel open and effortless, with storage integrated so it never feels heavy.”

The kitchen, living and dining are organised around a continuous run of half-height cabinetry that extends into a narrow dining ledge, maintaining visual flow across the footprint. Positioned by the window, the built-in dining surface features a cylindrical base that incorporates a tree, introducing a subtle Japanese zen element while framing views of the lush greenery beyond.

The bedroom is defined by a stone-textured feature wall and limewash-effect finishes that soften the space visually. These layered surfaces catch light gently, adding depth through subtle shifts in texture and tone. The room supports rest while maintaining continuity with the home’s overall material palette and warm atmosphere.
