1) $50,000 renovation for this Scandi-inspired five-room HDB home in Bukit Panjang

Designed by Joy Loo of Waff, this five-bedroom HDB flat in Bukit Panjang has Nordic blue hues; this deep, soothing shade greets the eyes when you step into the home.

The desk and shelves in the study are clad in white laminate with plywood finishes. An existing niche in the home has been cleverly turned into a bookshelf.

The master bedroom has grey as the dominant colour for a minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired vibe.

2) Five-room executive condo apartment in a chic colonial-tropical style

Mr Clarence Chua and Ms Candice Li were so inspired by their honeymoon in Africa two years ago that they decided to decorate their five-room executive condominium in Bukit Panjang in the tropical- colonial style. The living and dining areas of the 1,050 sq ft apartment are filled with lush potted plants that tower above a person of average height and antique-looking wooden furniture.

Themed chess sets that the couple collected as travel souvenirs dot a wall in the guest room. Black-and-white bamboo blinds are installed at the windows.
