A downside of high-rise living is the small apartment unit you get. However, these homeowners got around that by purchasing two adjacent units (lucky them!) and, with the help of their talented interior designer, combined them to create a spacious family home that offers both comfort and style. This innovative approach to urban living demonstrates how creative solutions can transform limited square footage into an expansive dream residence that meets the needs of a growing family.

The living and dining areas are kept open and airy, using only a slight shift in floor levels to demarcate them. This clever design technique maintains visual continuity while subtly defining separate functional zones within the open-concept layout. 

Elegant decals that match the modern luxe wallpaper tie the transitioning spaces together, creating a cohesive aesthetic throughout the combined units. 

Floor-to-ceiling glass doors not only contribute to the expansive feel but also allow natural light to flood the interior, enhancing the sense of spaciousness and connecting the indoor living spaces with the spectacular city views beyond.

The spacious kitchen has become the heart of this transformed home, featuring a stunning 4m-long island so the kids can hang out there while their mum prepares meals. This multifunctional space combines premium appliances with thoughtful storage solutions, allowing for both serious cooking and casual family gatherings. 

The extended island serves as a natural congregation point, providing ample room for meal prep, casual dining, homework sessions, and social interaction - truly embodying the concept of a modern family kitchen in an urban setting.

The kids’ den has been designed with a darker, more intimate ambience to accommodate the family’s treasured chinois furniture pieces. The rich tones and sophisticated lighting create a cozy retreat within the larger home. 

“This is also the homework and tuition room,” their mum says with pride. How cool is that? 

This versatile space showcases how thoughtful interior design can seamlessly blend functionality with personal style, creating rooms that adapt to the changing needs of family life while preserving cherished heirlooms and cultural elements.
