We know that starting your home renovation journey is not an easy one. The first thing you have to do is research. Look at the beautiful homes created by professionals to have an idea of what is possible and what is not. Here are 15 HDB homes that don’t quite look like your typical HDB flat. Bask in these glorious homes and draw inspiration for your own humble abode.

1. An Industrial Flair

Doesn’t the colour brown almost always makes you feel warm and cosy? This industrial – scandinavian themed house has the perfect amount of neutral elements to appear spacious, inviting and cosy, all at the same time!

4. Pop of Colours

Some people are afraid to play with colours but not this household. Subtle additions of colours through the furniture and doors make the whole house pop and though there are more than 3 colours at play, it still is pleasing to the eye.

5. Elegantly Contemporary 

 

Running the electrial wires along the wall to become an interesting feature adds the modern aspect to this design. Mounting lights onto a wall feature and having hanging lights above the dining area are great unique ways to light up your home and to make it appear a tad bit, dare I say, futuristic.

There are elements of colour in this design through feature walls and doors making it modern and the placement and choice of furniture adds the vintage aspect of this design. The dining area is a perfect epitome of the theme, industrial.

7. White Spaces 

You simply can’t go wrong with a minimalistic look to your home. White walls and neutral-coloured furniture are great assets to achieve the minimalistic look that has become so increasingly popular. This is definitely a warm and cosy home to come back to after a long day.

8. Brown is the new black 

We can see the total effect of having brown elements in a home come to live in this apartment. And you know what, we are loving it! From the dark brown cupboards to the lighter shades of brown tables, the apartment has a cosy woody feel to it.

9.  Modern Chic 

Using strong black lines on shelves and along the ceiling to hold lights creates a stylish and modern look to the entire apartment. These design additions may not seem a lot but they affect the vibe of the house significantly.

10. Vacation right at Home 

Adopting a resort theme, this apartment is designed to be like a vacation right at home. The colour scheme and the design of the feature walls add to the resort theme. The dual purpose feature that serves as a television set and the backdrop to a study area in the bedroom is simply a genius way of utilising space!

11. Grey Galore 

Alright, grey galore might a tad bit too much to describe this apartment but that’s how significant the touches of grey are to this design. This design gives a bachelor pad’s vibe with its industrial elements – wires on wall, grey furniture, dimly lit living area etc. It has an upscale and modern chic vibe which is quite irresistably charming.

13. To Japan, anyone? 

This muji-themed apartment just screams Japan, doesn’t it? The light wood textures and colours create a minimalistic look for the entire home. One of the unique features in this home is the table that is suspended mid-air. This feature not only serves as a modern element but also emphasises the muji theme.

14. Aye Aye Captain

Thematic houses are always a win. This pirate themed house is not only creative quirky but it is a great conversation starter for guests at your home. The theme can be easily achieved with subtle elements as seen in this apartment. You don’t need to have a pirate ship to create such a theme.

15. Raw Rusticity 

The half brick wall is definitely the highlight in this apartment. There also is a feature wall that doubles up as a chalkboard. Creative or what? The placement of furniture and the white flooring creates a huge space in the living room making it both spacious and cosy.
