House Tour: Scandinavian-style three-bedroom condominium apartment that's bright and spacious
Achieving Scandinavian-style interiors may sound effortless in theory, but it is much more challenging in reality. As a result, the homeowners (a newlywed couple) of the apartment featured here engaged interior design firm Free Space Intent, armed with ideas gleaned from social media platforms like Pinterest and Instagram.
To fulfil the couple's requests for a bright and spacious interior with a touch of nature, designer Raymond Seow went with a neutral colour palette comprising white, light wood as well as green accents.
Natural lighting is one of the most crucial factors in Scandinavian-style interiors. So, in order to illuminate the space, Raymond installed glass partitions and sliding doors, letting in an ample amount of sunlight.
Sheer drapes that frame the large sliding doors were used to bring a soft touch to the living room. Meanwhile, the wooden Danish furniture pieces feature clean lines and gentle curves that are easy on the eye.
Raymond also strategically injected natural elements, by placing plants and tropical-print cushions throughout the home.
After a long day at work, the homeowners can unwind and read a book in their cosy daybed by the window in the study.
Numerous drawers, which are seamlessly integrated into the study area, serve as extra storage space.
The renovation of this apartment, which included hacking, tiling, electrical and ceiling works, as well as plumbing, carpentry, painting, and the installation of glass partitions and doors, cost approximately $68,000.
