Inside A Japanese Zakka-Inspired HDB Home That Is Comfortably Lived-In | Stacked HDB Tour

[@StackedHomes]

We’re really impressed with how much thought went into Herman’s Zakka-inspired home - even down to the details like the typography displayed around the house! One thing that really strikes us was how lived-in the flat looks - yet somehow it’s still very aesthetically pleasing and does not look cluttered at all. Would you consider a Zakka design style?

What a great home that exudes personality. That's what I always enjoy when I see homes of its own unique characters, here. Well done.

[@StackedHomes]

🙌 Well said! Thank you for watching!

[@hannahbatrisyiaadha4022]

He was my lecturer and I remember searching up for an article about his home as he told us that it was featured on one HAHAHA Glad to be able to see more of it on here!

[@StackedHomes]

Haha he is really proud of his home 😀 Thanks for sharing your story!

[@threestonesandadeck689]

A lot of people feel a need to conform to a specific style i.e midcentury, minimalist, etc. But I really like this style of “just putting together things that I like”!

[@StackedHomes]

True! Making it really unique for him 🙌

[@ashw00tz]

Gorgeous! Finally a feature on an eclectic house 🏠 with loads of personality ❤️

[@StackedHomes]

Glad you like it ❤️

[@nschweiz4248]

To the owner of the home, thank you for agreeing to share your home to the outside world. You never know who you have inspired. I find your place very charming!

[@StackedHomes]

Thank you for your kind words!!

[@hilmir]

love this space. a good balance of mindful curation and owner's personality. literally every shot is interesting to look at. it is almost bordering on clutter, but there is a simple unpretentious charm to it! I am only disappointed we did not get to see the bedroom.

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! Yes it's a really good balance - one that took about a year to achieve, slowly adding on inspirations through time. It's certainly not for everyone but we love showcasing what makes a "home" for different people - whether they're living alone or have multiple children 😀

[@hilmir]

@@StackedHomes yes I read past publications and media on the same space, and the owner really did it in stages, letting it stay empty for a while to get a sense of the space. it created a very organic end result that is true to both his personality and needs. 👍🏽

[@nickvsarch]

The Zakka concept is really intriguing, I love how every part of the flat is interwoven together ❤

[@StackedHomes]

Glad you love it! Thank you for watching!

[@cm7809]

He looks very comfy and relaxed at home. I think this design works for him and that’s good enough. 👍🏼

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts Catherine! Yes it's not for everyone, but that's what motivates us to do our Living In series - showcasing what makes a home for everyone 😀

[@byWingYee]

A very decorated home, with lots of interesting details with much thoughts put into every corner..I love how homely and relaxed this house is.

[@StackedHomes]

Yes a lot of thought went into the home over a long period of time. Really happy that you feel that way about it! Thanks for watching!

[@AnnHelle]

I would love to attend his lectures. Finally, an interior done by a trained design professional with actual expertise in the field, and it shows. It takes so much more than just an 'interest in interior decor' and a pinterest board to put together a well designed interior. Glad this was showcased here.

[@StackedHomes]

Well said Morrison! These days everyone who has some form of renovation experience or Pinterest board could think they're interior experts 😂 But it does take a lot more than that!

[@matamin8602]

Inspiring. He really made the space his own!

[@StackedHomes]

He really did! We love how lived-in it looks yet still remains so aesthetically gorgeous ❤️

[@myownlilbubble]

Nice! A chilled, laidback homey feel.

[@StackedHomes]

Glad you like it! 🙌

[@parodoxppp]

I love this place so much! Herman is a genius with an eye for design! I love all the random objects and the typography design..naming the bath and toilet Splash & Flush is as cute and interesting too. Can see his love for the 'authentic' Japanese vibe and not just everything Muji (that can become plain til boring) Although there's only one person here, it has the 100% warmth of a home with lots of love and I'm sure many other people will love to live in a home like this!

[@StackedHomes]

Totally agree! This home is really lived-in but truly stylish. Herman really has an eye for design as you've said 😎 Not just following a design template 😂 It's really rare to find a home like Herman's and we're so proud to have the honour to feature his home!

[@superlynnie]

This is one of the nicest interpretation of this style, and in so an effective manner! Bravo!

[@StackedHomes]

Well said! Thanks for watching!

[@hongng3963]

Cozy and carefree feel ! Lots of nice ideas

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks so much for your kind words!

[@annyaty5408]

So eclectic, breezy, bright and green, loveee it!

[@StackedHomes]

Glad you love it! ❤️

[@spicenpans]

Well done, Heage!

[@StackedHomes]

🙌

[@MrKenken2346]

House is tasteful, personable and has stress relieving vibes cuz of the greenery! Great that you are enjoying it and not selling it!

[@StackedHomes]

Well said James! Thanks for watching!

[@yoyoheads]

Super nice. Love the magazine nook. I would love a comic nook like that myself. Minamalism is nice, but I much prefer these kind of designs where there is a more organised mess that feels more lived in and homey.

[@StackedHomes]

Totally agreed! Looks like there's so much personality in the home. Thank you for watching!

[@gera.w]

beautiful ! I really like the stencil designs it personalised the space and showcased your individuality too !

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for sharing 😄

[@jjjo6224]

I love the greenery plants around the house. Great for homely feeling. Nice to b home👍

[@StackedHomes]

The greenery really makes the home super cosy 😀 Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[@ordinaryobserver897]

Brilliant tying together all the different assortments to make a nice place. Always look forward to your videos. Dont know why KZbin recommended the new videos so late and kept proposing very old videos.

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for watching! We're just grateful it recommends us 😂

[@ijusthappenedtonotlikecorn8086]

I love the vibes from his unit. Proud that he's currently my leaturer for photography module😆.

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for sharing your kind words!

[@lsamoa]

Very nice home that feels like a cozy and inviting café. Love it!

[@StackedHomes]

It really is! Their home does really exude an inviting and cozy vibe! 💯

[@nmk633]

This place has it own characteristics, which is nice as reflected the owner’s taste & feel. Especially the doors w frosted glass. Nice 👍🏻

[@StackedHomes]

Well said Natasha. I think you perfectly captured it with "own characteristics". Herman has really made the home his - it's unique, and if one tries to replicate it, it would probably come off as "Herman's home" more than "Japanese-style" 😂

[@mangotango7647]

Thank you for featuring diff concept/themed homes. Always love eclectic ones coz it's so versatile. First time seeing Zakka inspired home

[@StackedHomes]

[@easterangie]

It feels like the Airbnb I live in Japan...

[@StackedHomes]

Wow what a compliment 😀

[@xksmdksmndjsj7408]

It is really pretty awesom and look convnient,just not sure..how abt the HDB 3room flat,with 2kids n 2 teengers +parents itself..is it got spacing enough/not..🤔🤔😍👍💕

[@StackedHomes]

Cool idea - but wow 3-room flat to fit 6 people! That could be a real squeeze 😂

[@nightowl4121]

Did you knock down the wall of a bedroom? I was tempted to do so, but my guest won't be able to stay over if I do so.

[@StackedHomes]

Knocking down the wall is a big decision, we think it's always better to retain it since having more rooms makes it more practical 👌

[@vannessaasteria615]

amazing

[@StackedHomes]

Glad you think so! 🙌🙌🙌

[@kcspslayer]

sick house

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for your kind words!

[@wilsup18]

I believe this is one of the closest that you can see and compare to a typical apt in Japan; down-to-earth, non-pretentious, true to itself. Unlike the other mass market Japandi crap that you see nowadays designed by IDs who have no idea what a legit Japan home is. It makes total sense when he says a home is always in a constant growing phase. You don't "in-built" the whole house to look like a certain theme and expect it to last forever and not get sick of it.

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[@ezekielk.3629]

the 4 dislike are likely jealous condo homeowner

[@StackedHomes]

😂😂😂

[@wangjinwen7708]

I wonder will go crazy living alone like that till i die.. words on the toilet, words on the shelf, words on the wall. Ownself talk to ownself. I better get a life

[@StackedHomes]

Different folks different strokes 🤷‍♂️😂

[@yundizhang779]

哈哈屋主很像关锦鹏~

[@savethebees2506]

U like zakka. I like wabisabi. 😄

[@StackedHomes]

😂😂😂

[@chingching3946]

Abit too cluttered here and there to my liking ...... Liked the photo framed plants though

[@StackedHomes]

😂 It's not to everyone's taste! Glad you found something of interest though!

[@Gurugurustan]

のんびりまったり⇨スゴイ言葉!ｗ

[@tonylim7405]

Really need alot alot times do cleaning. sweat!

[@StackedHomes]

😂😂😂

[@tricialow217]

Chic cluttered home

[@StackedHomes]

😂😂😂 That's one way to put it!

[@cchan4739]

Unique and rather tasteful but a little over-the-top bordering on unkempt for me.

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this C Chan!

[@musico3415]

I find this home cluttered.

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[@maypong2007]

Not for minimalist

[@StackedHomes]

Haha completely agreed!

[@reeeyou]

Zakka, yes. Izakaya? No. Dont put words you dont understand.

[@carlsonxiu4439]

They meant that the kitchen is inspired from Izakayas found in Japan. Besides it's just interior, why so critical 😜
