Home Tour: $45,000 Classical Victorian-style renovation for this 5-room HDB flat in the Pinnacle @ Duxton
Bright, bold, and classical Victorian? What a house we saw in 2016!
A couple with their two young children live in this classical style 5-room HDB flat at the Pinnacle @ Duxton. Step into their vibrant home and you'll be swept away by the perfect fusion of classical design and bold, modern colours.
The homeowners wanted to create a happy, flamboyant space that brings life to their living quarters. With the help of interior designer Raymond Zhang from Vegas Interior Design, they achieved a stunning modern Baroque look on a $45,000 budget.
Classical style HDB interior
The classical style HDB interior incorporates timeless Baroque elements like Chippendale legs on the furniture pieces. However, contemporary touches of silver and black keep the design from feeling dated, lending an edgy, modern vibe.
One standout piece is the striking black chandelier that catches the eye as soon as you enter. "We first saw it at a lighting shop for $6,000!" says the delighted wife. "Thankfully, Raymond was able to source it directly from the supplier at half the price."
Bold splashes of colour
What really makes this classical style HDB flat sing are the bold splashes of colour throughout. Flamingo pink and rich plum shades delineate the living and dining areas, adding an energetic punch.
In the living room, the wife's collection of designer Barbie dolls doubles as smart storage for books and magazines while making for a fun conversation starter.
Classic red accents with gold
The master bedroom leans more towards traditional Baroque style with an ornate vanity set and headboard in elegant gold and ivory hues. However, red velvet stool upholstery maintain that signature injection of vivid colours. By combining classical architectural details like ornate furniture with modern elements like the black chandelier, this home achieves a delightful balanced look.
Vintage yet modern
The bright pops of colour throughout, from the flamingo pink living room to the plum dining area to the red and gold bedroom accents, give the classical style HDB a youthful, energetic vibe. It's a masterful blend of timeless design with vivid, of-the-moment colours. By blending classical details with modern touches and vibrant colours, this couple has created a one-of-a-kind living space that is both timeless and energetically fresh.
Overall, this five-room classical style HDB flat is a true celebration of design versatility. The homeowners have created an envy-inducing, unique living space that expertly melds traditional baroque elegance with contemporary edginess. With its perfect mix of vintage details, modern touches, and bright, bold colours, this home is sure to leave visitors in awe of the impeccable yet vibrant style. It's a space that balances elegant sophistication with a fun, youthful flair.
