This executive HDB flat was given a minimalist makeover with a traditional spin and plenty of breathing room for the family of five.

Minimalism is not easy to achieve when you have a large family, but these homeowners dreamed big when they engaged Zach Lim from Lush Interior Design for their renovation.

They weren’t let down either—the designer achieved a spacious layout with an airy, predominantly white palette, classic accents to break up any monotony and plenty of storage space to keep clutter out of sight.

He even managed to carve out an entertainment room and an open-concept kitchen, ticking the family’s every box.

Overall view

This area exemplifies the meeting of modern minimalism and traditional styles, a large, classic leather sofa from Bless Brothers placed in an open-concept living room and fronting a decidedly modern feature wall with a fluted texture.

Kitchen

A specific request from the family, the white rattan door ended up inspiring the design for the entire flat, striking a balance between traditional and contemporary.

Around the kitchen, the walls were knocked down to open up the space and let in plenty of light, further accentuated by the all-white colour palette and marbled backsplash from Cosentino. Finally, wooden accents were introduced to lend the kitchen some visual intrigue.

Bathroom

Being a material that’s characteristically retro yet also highly contemporary, terrazzo was the perfect choice for this bathroom, applied here in the form of sturdy tiles from Hafary.

The fixtures and accessories were kept simple, instantly drawing the eye with a deep black finish that doesn’t risk getting lost in the pattern.
