This quirky 4-bedroom Telok Kurau penthouse has been transformed into a personalized home brimming with charm thanks to striking hand-painted wall murals throughout. Interior designer Alex Kwan of Museum Homes masterminded the whimsical interiors of this Telok Kurau penthouse.
Victorian style furniture
The living spaces exude a playful twist on classic Victorian style with graphic wall-painted frills and white cornice-trimmed cabinets.

But the true showstoppers are the breathtaking customized wall murals that amplify the old-world flair while making this Telok Kurau penthouse incomparably unique. Museum Home's talented in-house artist Andre Tan personally hand-painted an exquisite mural on the wardrobe doors using bold black markers and paint, sealed with a protective varnish coat.
Wall mural on wallpaper
By ingeniously layering traditional wallpaper with mural artistry, Kwan has achieved a dynamic fresh look in even the most compact rooms. The striking black mural drawings seemingly leap off the walls against vivid, judiciously chosen color pops.
Flower wall mural
In the cozy bedroom, overscale hand-painted graphic green flower petals sweep across the feature wall mural. The designer's clever trick to create lovely depth? Layering varying rich shades of verdant green.

Another bedroom hosts a delightfully whimsical focal point - a spectacular hand-painted tree mural in soft shades of pink. This painted arboreal fantasy backs an ornate Victorian-style carved wood bed frame, further enhanced by clustered painted flowers and cheerful perched birds.
Functional and pretty
In a brilliant melding of form and function, the mural's branches cleverly double as hooks for hanging handbags and accessories.
