Drawing inspiration from Singapore’s vibrant history, 2nd Edition was tasked to design interiors for a series of show flats ranging from one- to four-bedroom apartments. “The client wanted the design to embrace the theme of ‘past, present, future’ for the show units by incorporating the historical and cultural highlights of eastern Singapore with a modern twist,” says design director Hilary Loh on the creative brief.
With this in mind, Loh and design associate Yang J-Lyn first focused on creating a homely, laidback space for the one- and two-bedroom apartments that are equally stylish and functional; this included a mix of dark wood, black furnishings, and spritely accents of blue.
The three- and four-bedroom apartments offer a more adventurous design approach as the duo looked to reference travel and multicultural heritage to create luxurious homes for modern families or potential holiday homes for overseas buyers. Touches of rattan, jungle print, and a fusion of European and Asian design elements abound in the three-bedroom unit that lends a more tropical feel and a “twist of whimsical fun.” In comparison, the four-bedroom apartment offers a modern interpretation of historic colonial-era bungalows by the sea that was previously a usual sight in the East Coast area. These interiors showcase expansive wall-to-floor windows and plush fabrics in soothing grey, cool tones, and metallic accents.
