Inside An Amazing Transformation Of A Old 30 Year HDB To Modern Home + Office

[@StackedHomes]

With the current work from home situation, this could be the best home + office setup we’ve seen so far. We love the 6 metre ceiling and usage of vertical space for a cosy sleeping area.

Wow, finally something that isn’t centred on aesthetics/ ID themes but designed w function in mind. I like the closing comment by the designer about how a good design instigates change! Best vid to date. Keep up the great work introducing such gems to us!

[@StackedHomes]

Good point! We really liked the smart and functional planning of the space. You can see the amount of thought that went into the planning - something an architect would think about as opposed to actual homeowners, so it's really interesting to get their insight on how they planned their space 😀

[@tarepandaval483]

WOW this one blew me away!!!! brilliantly designed!!

[@StackedHomes]

Glad you like it!!

[@blilasg8956]

the colour scheme is so soothing.

[@StackedHomes]

It is 🙌 Excellent source of inspiration!

[@mindtwister1984]

Great that our Architects are breathing fresh ideas to old spaces.

[@StackedHomes]

That's an interesting perspective 😄

[@ShubyDuby]

I love this! ❤️ Esp the soothing colour palette, neat demarcation of the 2 diff types of spaces, smart use of space to fit all in a 3 room flat as well as the tall ceiling height 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@StackedHomes]

Glad you love it! It's a really smartly designed space - not just aesthetically, but practical too to function as both an office and a home. The best part is that it made full use of the space, especially the loft, despite being just a 3-room flat! 😀

[@lsamoa]

I really like this space, it's very cleverly designed and seemed super functional. I also love the art on the walls and how it has been professionally framed. Especially the one with the tree shadow on the building that is nicely asymetrically framed. I look forward to seeing more work from this duo, please feature them often!

[@StackedHomes]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@petrinastephalicia2613]

This is my favourite video by far! Very innovative & effective use of the 6m high ceiling! It gives the home a feeling of being more exclusive and not a hdb.

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks Petrina! Glad that it's your favourite video - and yes we absolutely love the usage of the 6m high ceiling 😀

[@widyay]

really interesting the way the spaces are planned out. awesome work!

[@StackedHomes]

Yes it's really really thoughtful! Thanks for watching 😃

[@ryanyoutube7315]

I love how this video is presented. In an architectural space planning use. It's not the normal interior design approach. ;). Interesting to see concepts applied on hdb units where it's usually limited with what you can do. This is good!!

[@StackedHomes]

Glad you liked it! We really love their thought process behind the space, and like you, it's uniquely designed for their use and not just any other interior design concept slapped on a unit 😂

[@threestonesandadeck689]

Love the framing of this video, it captured the key points of the home beautifully. ✨

[@StackedHomes]

So glad you love it! Thank you for the kind words 🙏

[@samanthachia1491]

More like an office with a pantry and recreational area. Under the radar of HDB but these guys are smart.

[@StackedHomes]

Very smart 😂👀

[@odechan9659]

Brilliant... worth hiring an architect for this outcome! Please do another detailed tour, include cost if possible 😆😄

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for your feedback and for watching!! Actually they are the architects themselves in this case 😀

[@odechan9659]

@@StackedHomes yup I know! I mean, if hiring an architect for HDB project can have such mind blowing outcome, is worth engaging one instead of the usual interior designer haha...

[@BalboaBaggins]

I don't get why these "artworks" on the wall are so popular. Who wants to live in a museum.

[@StackedHomes]

Thanks for sharing!

[@nmk633]

Is it legal to mezzanine within HDB? interesting layout.. ☺️

[@StackedHomes]

Hey! A lot of these would require HDBs approval 👌

[@mspeiyun]

wow! where is this located? its rare to find 6m high ceiling.

[@blinkblink6768]

Serangoon central

Is the mezzanine floor even allow by HDB for high ceiling like this?

[@StackedHomes]

Hey! All of this is subject to discretion and approval 👌

[@spamcollector9606]

​@@StackedHomes Please lah. say until like HDB will approve. Your video has their names and occupation. HDB want to find very easy to find.

[@spamcollector9606]

Confirm is cannot. All secretly installed one for HDB. $5000 fine if caught. They put their name and occupation in the video. Very soon HDB will call them up already.

[@soulsessions4219]

Wow this is amazing!

[@StackedHomes]

Glad you think so 😃

[@j00ne]

I’ve a high ceiling as well so this has given me some great ideas to do up my flat!

Perfect! Glad you got some inspiration from this 😀

What is psychological space?

[@StackedHomes]

Hey! According to practicalpie.com - Psychological Space is the idea that our perception of the world affects our internal thoughts and beliefs. If we live in a messy place, our mind may be messy; if we live in a clean place, our mind will be clean 👌

[@imocha67]

How come HDB got such high ceiling?

[@StackedHomes]

Hey! Yes there are, like those with slanted roofs that you see - these are special units. There're also units built specifically with high ceilings such as the loft units in Punggol or in Queenstown.

[@ManpreetSingh-vt3gf]

It invokes a deep sense of homogenous austerity, where function completely takes over and youre left feeling like you are living in a petri dish.

[@StackedHomes]

👀 poetic!

[@Iendleasereit]

A-m-a-z-ing 😮😵

[@StackedHomes]

We think so too 😄

[@MrRovoLova]

Since when did HDBs have two floors? Besides Maisonettes

[@StackedHomes]

Hey! This is actually a high ceiling, so it's not 2 floors 👌

[@humectanianha8261]

Impressive, the right environment will set u into a ‘work mode’ and also the ‘home-feel sanctuary’. The convenience of ‘shifting’ will definitely enhance the productivity of those living in it. Be it work related or even biologically. Lol

[@StackedHomes]

Exactly! 😃

[@kuaqimai]

Interesting 6m height tat mean can make into 2 floor?

[@StackedHomes]

Hey there! It's a sloping roof, so it can't be 2 complete floors - just a small amount of space can be utilised 👌

[@myeongwol]

Hdb can used as office?

[@StackedHomes]

Hi! Yes it is possible. You may refer to HDB's home office scheme here: www.hdb.gov.sg/residential/living-in-an-hdb-flat/home-business/home-office-scheme

mezzanine level approve in HDB?

[@StackedHomes]

Hi, this one doesn't require approval 👌

[@iamabookworm93]

Wow. Didn't know this kind of flat exists.

[@StackedHomes]

Old and hidden gems are hard to find because online search portals don't have filters for such niche things - but they do exist!

[@zincheong8456]

Is this a jumbo flat where two 3 room flats are joint together?

[@StackedHomes]

Hey! Thanks for watching! No it's just a 3-room flat 👌

[@shingapore]

3rm flat is not the same as 3-bedroom

[@StackedHomes]

Hey! Thanks for pointing that out, yes it was a slip of the tongue 😅

[@edenassos]

I personally think they should design facades to be retrofitted on slightly older HDBs because most of them are ugly as hell. Totally destroys the Singapore landscape for me.

[@StackedHomes]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

[@johnchew7132]

Are Architects this broke ?

[@telracs23]

John, it depends on how u measure wealth .....

[@StackedHomes]

Hey John! Thanks for dropping by! There's nothing wrong with buying a 3-room resale and configuring the space to make it work for you 😅

[@Victor-rt3fx]

I am not sure why an architect is needed for a HDB renovation works which can be easily done by an in-house interior designer in a HDB-licensed renovation company, this is an overkill. Are they registered with The Board of Architects? Or the owner(s) have spare cash with nowhere to spend?

[@shopgirl6183]

Urm, they are architects by training who also do interior and exterior? Plus this is their home slash office and therefore they can design it themselves? Did you actually watch the video? 😂
