4 Room HDB Apartment at Alkaff CourtView

Theme: Downtown Manhattan



This sophisticated 900 sq feet apartment at Bidadari brings us back to the stylish Manhattan metropolis and its' fast-paced buzzy lifestyle.



One of the main correlations isdue to the smaller sizes of Manhattan apartments, resulting in an emphasis on open space planning and an urbane lifestyle.



In order to fully open up the apartment, we installed full length blinds which instantly elongates the space and is one of the first things you notice about the proportion of the space upon entering. A carefully crafted ceiling with precise cuts and lines maps out the living spaces with the highlight being a curved portion which becomes the dining area.



A bold playful take on the floor tiles was done with two contrasting types of floor finishes, and the long horizontal lines it achieved adds depth and illusion of space.



One of the finishing touches we enjoyed was the backstage lights installed in the bathrooms adding glamour and an artsy vibe to the place.



It is unbelievable that this is a 900 sq feet apartment at first glance. However,a house tour reveals the kitchen area that was deliberately reduced to increase the size of the living/dining area. It's all part of the client’s brief, as they do not intend to utilise the cooking space and prefer a larger living area to entertain guests.
