After checking out our friends' newly renovated places and scrolling through many lovely home accounts, we have gathered a list of popular interior design trends and features! 🔥 These trends generally focus on maximizing space, enhancing functionality, and adding a touch of personal style. We can’t wait to bring some of these ideas into our own place! 😍
Among the popular trends, we have seen couples DIY-ing their own limewash walls and adding indoor greenery, open-concept layouts that make spaces feel bigger 🫧 Curved furniture serves both aesthetics and function (bump-proof)! 💯
Personalised touches like collectibles, decorative, photo frames, and unique patterns and textures are giving homes their own character 🪴
On the practical side, robot cleaners, water purifiers/dispenser units, and stacked washer/dryer setups have become must-haves in younger family homes, with automated laundry racks replacing HDB’s manual pulley-style laundry rack.
Clever use of space with hidden bomb shelters with lots of storage, cove lighting for that soft glow, fluted panels to bring texture to plain walls, and larger tiles to minimize grout lines (less cleaning, yay!). Not forgetting personalised smart home systems and sustainability features like window solar film and retractable insect screens.
Convertible furniture like expandable dining tables for larger gatherings, small corner ceiling fans in the kitchen for ventilation, adjustable PC tables, cozy coffee tables, and well-organized kitchens with pull-out drawers are all about making the most of limited space 👍
Although some trends might come and go, it’s hard to ignore how cleverly they address the challenges of small Singaporean homes. Many of these features seem to be more than just a passing fad, they are practical solutions that could stand the test of time 🕰️🌷 Even if some trends aren’t your style, discussing and supporting each other’s choices is what matters. Ultimately, it’s about what works for you and your partner 🤗
