Kitchen & Bathroom Issue

Habitus 63 is arguably the most aspirational issue of the year with Kitchens & Bathrooms to dream about. Whether a family hub, an entertainer’s paradise or somewhere to grad a quick meal, how we live in and spend time in the kitchen is a very personal question that requires thought and an abundance of resources. Always the aspirational eye candy of design, we have some truly lovely kitchens from Greg Natale, YSG, Splinter Society, Sally Caroline and Studio Johnston. Bathrooms are just as important with Greg Natale, Studio Tate, YSG and Those Architects sharing some fabulous insights

Optimising Spatial Impact In A Singaporean Apartment

Singapore

In face of a multitude of architectural challenges such as structural columns and waterproofing problems, this Singaporean apartment has been completely transformed by D.D.I.


“The unit itself was very old and in its original condition,” says Project Consultant Alex Poh. To make way for the updated design features, D.D.I had to tear almost everything down. The kitchen layout was completely altered to create an open-concept plan, and was then merged with the dining area. For the finishing touches, it has been decked in a palette of navy blue and white, which brings on a fresh and clean-lined appeal.

To fit a modern Victorian theme, D.D.I designed a feature wall with a unique fireplace concept for the living area. “The fireplace serves as the TV console,” the designers say. “For the details, we used Craftstone to create a backdrop for the console area, rather than traditional wallpaper or cabinets.” This multi-texture material palette of plywood, laminates, aluminium and glass was built to complement the heart of the home: the open-concept kitchen.

To optimise space in the master bedroom, the designers installed a divider to separate the sleeping area from the wardrobe space. Say the designers: “With this feature, the homeowners have a changing area right outside the bathroom and more privacy for their bedroom.”
