Inside A Dark Minimalist 5 Room HDB With A Truly Unusual Layout

This week, we visit a 5room BTO unit at Tampines GreenVerge. Homeowners Terrence and Roxanne knew they wanted a dark theme, as they wanted something different from their previous home. The 5room unit on paper was 1, 216 square feet, but to them, it somehow felt smaller than their old 4room flat. As a result, it required a lot of creative adjustments to configure the space for their living needs. First, they decided to go without a console and coffee table because of their young kid, and installed a project instead. Because Roxanne was able to work from home, they also created a glasswalled study, office carved out from the living room space. For the dining, it was smaller than they liked so they opted to cut down the size of their sons room to allow the dining space to be bigger. As a result, they were able to fit a 2m dining table in the end. They also hacked down the kitchen wall to created an open kitchen layout and kitchen island. Special thanks to Terrence and Roxanne for taking
