About A Residences Residential Apartment
A Residences is the interior design of a 93 square meter residential apartment in Singapore. The wall between the living room and a bedroom was removed to enlarge the living and dining area. The cabinets have fine groove lines that hide the openings and follow the ceiling strip design. Green vinyl is combined with wood-like flooring for a warm effect. Cove lighting at the beam height conceals the beam and makes the ceiling appear higher. Full-height windows bring the outside greenery into the home.

Interviews
Design Interview
What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?
Home owner would like to returning to cozy home after a daylong working hour at office. They enjoy staying at home during non-working day. Usually they enjoy Cafe hopping and cooking at home. Hence we design to bring cafe vibes to the home and plan the kitchen layout within this limited space to meet their everyday needs.
What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?
Playing with light and line is the focus for designing this work, yet we does not want to see wires running around the ceiling. By using the line on ceiling is also part of the design details yet can also hide the wiring without doing a false ceiling to lower down the ceiling height.
What are your future plans for this award winning design?
We does not want to stop here and we will continue and making improvement to our next projects.
