After living in Singapore for over 30 years, the owners of this apartment at TwentyOne Angullia Park desired a home that could showcase the unique furniture and art pieces they had amassed over time.
Interior designer Joann Ang of Designed Design Associates referenced key furniture pieces and built the look around it.
Natural light
In contrast to landed property, window access for condominium units tend to be limited to a few exterior walls.
As such, DDA worked within the existing constraints of the apartment layout to introduce as much light as possible into the space.
Full length windows
Featuring full-length windows, the dining room offers a panoramic view of Singapore’s skyline.
The dining table and chairs boast an East-meets-West mix of cherry wood and glass.
Dining room light
The pendant light above the dining area was customised and handcrafted by a local lighting designer.
With its locally-sourced origins, this pendant light not only adds a personal touch to the home but also supports local artisans and their craft, enhancing its value and significance.
This bespoke creation represents the perfect fusion of aesthetics and functionality, casting a warm and inviting glow over the dining area while serving as a striking conversation piece that reflects the homeowner’s appreciation for the artisanal and the extraordinary.
Contemporary kitchen
The kitchen takes on a more contemporary look with a muted colour palette and a pop of red.
The kitchen’s shift toward a more contemporary aesthetic, characterized by the subdued color palette and the unexpected pop of red, is a compelling design choice that strikes a harmonious balance between modern elegance and vibrant energy.
Rosewood Furniture
In the master bedroom, treasured bedside tables – drawn from the couple’s existing furniture collection – made from rare Huanghuali wood (a variant of rosewood) are complemented by a headboard design inspired by traditional Chinese motifs.
Bathroom storage
In the master bathroom, which initially lacked storage space, DDA removed an odd-shaped bath tub to make room for a storage and display shelf built into the bay window area.
