Home Tour: Industrial-style 4-room HDB in Punggol with a sloping roof
A daring Punggol 4-room HDB flat transforms industrial design into a bold personal narrative in 2017.
By Home & Decor -
Some homes whisper their stories; this Punggol 4-room HDB flat roars its interior design narrative with unapologetic confidence. When the homeowners connected with interior designer Kelvin Teo from Space Sense Studio, they shared a clear vision: an industrial-style interior design that would break free from cookie-cutter expectations. What emerged was far more than a renovation – it was a radical reimagining of how a living space can challenge, inspire, and transform.
HDB with Sloping Roof
The most striking element of this Punggol 4-room HDB transformation emerges immediately: a bold, sloping wall feature that defies traditional flat layouts. This architectural intervention becomes more than a mere design choice – it’s a statement of intent, a declaration that this home will not conform to expected norms. From the moment one enters, the space speaks of creativity, of design that thinks beyond boundaries.
The ceiling becomes a canvas of industrial poetry. Crossed rods and beams that artfully conceal light tracks create a visual narrative that speaks to the home’s industrial style interior design. These are not just structural elements, but deliberate design choices that transform the mundane into the extraordinary. Each line, each intersection tells a story of intentional design.
Brick Wallpaper
Where traditional industrial spaces might rely on harsh red or white brick, this Punggol HDB takes a more nuanced approach. A printed brick-look wallpaper introduces texture and depth without the heaviness of actual bricks. A recycled oil barrel console stands as a functional art piece, its edgy presence a subtle nod to the industrial aesthetic that pulses through the home.
Main Door Privacy Screen
Customization becomes the home’s defining characteristic. The divider between the living room and entrance is a masterpiece of multipurpose design – providing privacy while simultaneously serving as a display space for cherished knick-knacks. A mirror that doubles as a door becomes a clever hiding place for a shoe cabinet, each element working in harmony to create a space that is both beautiful and functional.
Industrial Interior Design with Wood
Warmth softens the industrial edges. Interior designer Kelvin introduces cosiness through carefully selected elements – warm lighting that caresses the space, timber vinyl flooring that overlays the original surface, and wood furniture that adds organic softness to the industrial framework. These choices transform what could be a cold, impersonal space into a welcoming home.
Master Bedroom
The bedroom becomes a study in purposeful design. Two rooms combined create a luxurious canvas – a wall-to-wall wardrobe that speaks to the homeowners’ desire for ample storage, a closet island that adds both function and style, and a study area that seamlessly integrates into the industrial aesthetic.
Track lights, a custom wooden bed frame, and wardrobe handles made from industrial pipes complete the narrative.
Black Framed Bathroom Door
Even the bathroom door becomes a design statement. A black-framed glass door adds a final touch of industrial elegance, a punctuation mark to the home’s interior design language.
