Southeast Asian artworks are not the only found-around-the-region element in this 3,500sqf inter-terrace house in Bedok. Family heirlooms such as grandparents’ wooden trunks and vintage floor tiles all celebrate the Asian heritage.
Inspired by the colonial-style tiles at PS Café, the owner asked her architect to source these patterned versions for her floor.
This humble dark wood chest was the trunk the owner’s grandfather came to Singapore with when he settled here.
The art piece on the brick wall was “discovered” on a shopping trip to Chatuchak Market in Bangkok.
The ‘cherry’ that tops off the home renovation is the modern chandelier by Nemo from Proof Living.
The interior designer painted the walls in robin egg blue to make the white pieces stand out. The colour is feminine, but far from girly.
The monochromatic-looking wallpaper in the master bedroom comprises darker stripes with a flocked finish, and lighter stripes that channel a tightly woven fabric.
