WELCOME TO DESIGN SEED!
This episode we will be sharing with you a double storey corner terrace house that has been transformed into a unique spacious home that caters for this young family.
A property spatial quality should not be dictated by the number of rooms, you may have more bedrooms but could potentially be feeling cooped up within constrain spaces.
This project is a perfect example of opening up spaces, connecting them into functional yet meaningful spaces that compliments their lifestyle.

The concept of light not only focuses on illuminating, but is another element that reinforces creativity. The architects did not only study the amount of light that enters, but also did so creatively 🥰

[@geraldbaria]

Wow that master's bedroom transformation was amazing! Please do more of these small space projects that makes them look away more than the simple default.

[@Eagle-gl7bq]

I love the idea of moving master bedroom, which makes spacious bedroom, bathroom and work space, and the spacious island in the kitchen. I love big space with good air ventilation and natural lighting, and this project has achieve them all! Great job 👏🏻 👍🏻

[@minghengtan]

still brilliant despite watching it for the second time… creative, imaginative and innovative 👍

[@changw4683]

My favourite channel on YT. THANKS DESIGN SEED and Alex Lee!!

[@braderbest3740]

It took guts to the owner, to compromised and letting go for some rooms in the house. And the end product is just another amazing floorplan that anyone would dream of.

[@dannyyong75]

Can i suggest to also include the average cost for such renovation? That will help future customers in estimating our budgets.

[@yamtze]

Seems like people who can afford it, wouldn't be bothered by the price

[@joeymangkok]

Nu infinity is not a "budget" ID cmpny. They are great premium high end designers

[@sil93]

I myself is renovating my home. it will be about 50% of the price of the house assuming it is a new build. (not a super old house)

[@kianlow6855]

@@yamtze why not? If I have 2M budget, for example, I want to know if I should buy 1M property so I can set aside the balance 1M to achieve the same design standard. Financial factor can help inform and achieve good design mentality among Malaysians. Some people straight buy 2M house and no money left for design budget

[@the.prttyone]

Since they feature the owners, it's only ethical that they do not disclose the cost as that's somehow going over the finances of the owners. They are here only to showcase design. Also, as they are a luxury design company, prices are not to be discussed. Similar to how Chanel bags doesn't have a price tag attached on their boutique stores.

[@andrewzzzzzz3453]

Good work Alex, love your natural light and open space designs

[@dxelson]

I think this is the best house showcase yet!

[@djeibo]

Very nice! Good job in doing the re-layout of the property!

[@itr2510]

i love the back kitchen, spacious lots light

[@tongkieal1960]

Fresh and amazing design!

[@darkreeze]

Thank you so much for the encouragement. We thank you for subscribing and thats exactly the type of support that we need to sustain the growth of this channel. Do share the word, we hope in time our channels vision would be able to spread to a much larger community. Cheers! Thanks again!

[@jbenz2681]

Agreed. But.. What to do? This is not AGT or American Idols lorhh

[@emuhammad90]

Really like to explore more on kitchen design that using concept of natural lighting like this one.

[@alins157]

Excellent space planning!

[@tonnysilaen2578]

More maintanance for the glass.. easily dirty, stains and spots, mold and leaves and objects on it

[@jbenz2681]

Yup. Tree house? GO GREEN! Haha

[@naderelshafei]

Very nice dear Alex, i really enjoyed the thinking and the effort behind the design to match the needs of the owners, Bravo))))))).Love to you from Cairo.

[@mahendrannadarajah277]

Interesting design and layouts with quality workmanship. Will be thinking getting u guys onboard my new home soon..

[@daddyraffles7083]

Awesome 👍 Terbaik 👍

[@GhostedStories]

Stunning!

[@designseedstudio]

Thank you!

[@gem50b5]

I find it great!

[@focusinterior.architecture]

love industrial design

[@leekokchoy7255]

Nice job. Great design and out of the box design to completely change the house around. Like the brick wall to cover off the backyard n to add a pleasant design for the owners to look out to. Wouldn't mind engaging your firm's services if i need to redo my house. CHEERS.

[@HaygenKong]

having many glass is nice.. unless the gated and guarded community is top notch, I would wonder whether the owner will compel to fortify it with grills later on...

[@raynerdandot9673]

can't imagine the cleaning/maintenance required for the dry kitchen with such height.

[@rad1euro]

wow! very cool n nicee👍🏻

[@ahmadelkattan9141]

i love it..

[@RagulCJ]

This is amazing

[@contrast3dvisual]

Wooowwww!!!!!

[@TheVincentism]

The solid materials will transmit heat faster than hollowed materials. I see them built it with solid brick. Usually a double-layers brick wall with air in between is better heatproof. One more thing that I'm concerned is the heat expansion of steel is much different than brick. So if they build brick walls with steel trusses and collumns. What is the method to keep the wall not having cracks at the contracted line between these 2 materials? Even a small crack will let the water leaked in.

[@sw2444]

Lovely. A little warm to cook lunch in the wet kitchen?

[@alexabad7827]

Very beautiful home! Can I live there?😂😂😂

[@kingchen8223]

Less is more. Thx for this good work.

[@MrAbklee]

Will the thief breaks in easily? And what about bird droppings or dust and dirt which will stain the glass and wouldn't it be difficult to wash?

[@Judygohck]

What tree is that...its so beautiful

[@siyabongahlela5485]

Well the design is beautiful 😍 ❤ ,especially the kitchen. Can I have the background music playlist please

[@kobadaa.952]

Wow never seen this type of building development in Singapore

[@mz2433]

seems like its in Malaysia

[@badex3301]

does the humidity in the region allow for this kind of layout?

[@harperwelch5147]

Even this remodel can't overcome the location in a series of very dull multi-house units. It's overwhelmed by its surroundings. I like the design by itself but in a different location.

[@esteee4143]

Love all the designs in this channel. But just wondering why are there bears deco in every property 😅😅

[@Fromkin1]

What’s the brand name of the couch? Looks really nice.

[@nuttdvm]

Nice house! But.. What will really happen in the house is waiting for the couple.. when a child is born …. Haha Anyway, this is so nice for a new couple.

[@MH-no8hy]

You do renovation in ipoh area?

[@charitoluna2192]

👍🏻❤️👍🏻

[@azmiamar3431]

Do you do this kinda reno in Penang?

[@victorlee8606]

I like this one. Wont it be hot in the afternoon in the working space? How many aircond needed to cool down the downstair since its open area?

[@infinity2u208]

If there r more plants 🌱, it should be more cooling.

[@tristankoh3358]

Good job on only using the word tastefully once. Keep it up!!!

[@jeslynlee2105]

So much attention paid haha

[@designseedstudio]

@@jeslynlee2105 thank you!!

Yup. TQ But he using the word Alex twice.. Haha

What are those gigant mice in all the design feed videos?

[@PROJEKRSX]

hi..can i know the name of the tree?

[@BearBearCammy]

With this similar design, do Nu Infinity offer more budget (medium range) on material cost? Or all have to be atas material?

[@maddyiii1]

Hi Alex, I have a challenging triangular home structure 1.5 BHK studio apartment with open kitchen can you check and let me know what interior will go best for this type of apartment.

[@hendriantohalim]

try to copy the kitchen high ceiling concept to my house. thanks Alex

[@mnm5037]

Overlooking a brick wall wile doin work? Water features fr the top would create better view & sight

[@tuanlam1314]

is it not hot in the noon n evening?

[@alvin83100]

Just a curious question, how will the extension brick wall block out afternoon sun, it looks like just moving d wall further out. Won't it absorb more heat with d darker colour n glass

[@TheVincentism]

You're right. The solid materials will transmit heat faster than hollowed materials. I see them built it with solid brick. Usually a wall built of 2 layers of bricks with air in between is better heatproof. One more thing that I'm concerned is the heat expansion of steel is much different than brick.

[@mingmeng5349]

All about duit. Cash is King.🐔🐓

[@jimdavid7710]

Gr8 for the owners inside but a big brick & steel wall for all outside is hardly a positive social thing for the sunburn & community. What gets me throughout Asia, which is both good and somewhat bad, is that you can build right-up to the curtilage of the property basically build a massive separation wall with your neighbors on the perimeter, it’s quite impacting. So you’re the neighbor & “boom” you’ve got a massive wall beside you on your border, no air flow anymore, no nature strip or side path, think of that. Your clients have big $ to achieve these extraordinary nice homes.

[@daryllim4826]

The owner need better guidelines in his cycling posture. It looklike his entire upper body weight is supported by his arm... this not only cause sore arm n shoulder pain, in long run will cause some chronic issue

[@ahchongt]

Amazing environmental friendly with holistic approach and space optimisation May I ask you how you what treatment (products)applied to overcome waterseepage, pollutants and staining of brick work. Common challenges for those who are using fair face brick wall, most of shy away. Tq for your sharing 🤩

[@jbenz2681]

Yup. Funfact / Ironically, the owner just started cycling hobby since this year MCO only. Syhhh... Haha

Hi, is this legal? Does it complies to the building law?

How big is the land size for the home...?

[@designseedstudio]

Hi there its a standard 22x70 2 storey terrace house. We had the luxury to extend another 7feet on the side and 6ft at the rear.

[@dyenitare28]

hello design seed. where do you get your shirts?

[@designseedstudio]

I get them from a Malaysian Fashion Designer called Cassey Gan. You could check out their website to place your order www.casseygan.com

[@brookieboydabom]

I love your videos but I find the narration just a bit too verbose. Just my opinion but a more modest narration might allow viewers to draw their own conclusions and engage more with the stunning visual content. Keep up the good work!

[@viewyview]

Me too. Compelling compelling compelling….

[@kamalali1150]

love this, but too much open space for natural lighting. Malaysia is so hot hahahaha

[@blazerlegion4669]

I suggest include cost in future videos

What is the location???

Hurmm.. Where or what?! LOL

300-500k maybe. I'd be surprised if it costed more

How do you keep those who tall glass windows clean 😂

[@thepochade5992]

She mention her baby? I didn't see a childs bedroom anywhere??

[@rosmannordin807]

I like your out of box construction work & industrial minimalist design. However, isnt the glass wall at the kitchen area may be see through from outside at night as well as it may expose to safety issues? Nevertheless.. overall it is one of your best art work.

[@simlowsb]

Isn't that side extension illegal under building codes?

[@jujtan5412]

With so many walls to hack. Am I right to say this should cost 500k +-?

[@BearBearCammy]

Most likely or above.

[@stac]

that staircase hand rail is an eye sore. how the hell did you guys missed that?

[@infinity2u208]

Where’s the storage for the working area?

[@michaelso8281]

Hi Alex, do you have office in sg ? fyi, the design in sg all sucks

[@jbenz2681]

LOL Not really.. No money no talk maaa Haha

[@oot007]

looks good but reducing a 3 bed townhouse to a 2 bed would reduce it's market value particularly with asian buyers.

[@jbenz2681]

Yup. But no worries. Since this.. their 3rd house. Haha

[@dingsinyee]

There's a different between sharing good design concepts and Show Off ...

[@thehspace]

Hi Alex, as with everyone, love the videos. But please stop with the overly "creative" shoehorning of English words into your descriptions. It sounds very jarring, as weird as randomly exposed wiring.

[@Wak1ez]

Is this even legal? Where’s the offset?

[@dantist32]

I foresee an issue if they need to have an overnight guest or accidentally have a second child...

[@emilyverone3011]

Nice but not really practical.. looks hot throughout the kitchen area..

[@designseedstudio]

Hi Emily, if u notice how the layout is planned, the red brick wall does not just function as an aesthetic feature but it also plays a role to block out the afternoon sun from beaming in directly into the property. The tree also shades out the direct sunlight from the wet kitchen. When we design for each and every property, the site analysis is crucial, thats where we put our expertise to the test. Studying sun orientation, how to create ever changing shadows for the interior, wind orientation for better flow and ventilation, and most importantly, space planning to improve the spatial quality. We hope this reply clears the clouds to give you a clearer understanding of our design intentions. After all, the intention of this channel is to boost and educate the purpose of Design. Cheers, and thank you Emily!

[@jeslynlee2105]

Owners are happy with the house while you 'see' its hot to you..wow..
