Industrial design HDB living room
The living room sets the stage with an industrial design scheme featuring concrete screed floors, exposed brick walls, and crate-like shelving units. However, it's the splashes of color and quirky decor from the owners' toy figurine collection that really makes the space stand out. An artistic arrangement of mirrors in one corner adds further visual interest.
A painting of Roy Lichtenstein's "Girl With Hair Ribbon" infuses the dining space with a dramatic feel.
Pop-art interior design
Through the open dining room, the exposed brick motif continues in bold red-orange hues. Rugged hanging wire lamps dangle overhead for an edgy, unfinished industrial vibe. But the showstopper is undoubtedly the colorful pop-art painting of Roy Lichtenstein's iconic 'Girl With Hair Ribbon' which infuses a playful, graphic punch.
The slim study table in the master bedroom affords enough desk space for two, yet doesn’t dominate.
Colourful industrial interior design
While not as overtly pop-art inspired as the common areas, this HDB master bedroom still weaves in cheerful pops of color amidst its soothing, industrial design foundation.
A cozy geometric patterned carpet, vibrant accent pillows, and bright artworks give the space just the right amount of lively contrast against the neutral palette. The clean-lined wooden bed frame and slim, space-saving double desk both exemplify understated industrial design.
The bathroom walls’ frosted sticker panels are easier to maintain than real frosted glass, yet provide the same level of privacy.
Modern industrial bathroom
Even this HDB bathroom incorporates the industrial design aesthetic through frosted glass walls and sleek, minimalistic finishes. An edgy combination of black fixtures against concrete screed creates urban sophistication.
With its brilliant blend of industrial design with whimsical pop-art accents, this unconventional HDB flat renovation is certainly a showstopper. The homeowners successfully made the space their own through bold design choices and decorative touches showcasing their unique personalities.
