“Where do I store this?” This Bishan BTO had an answer for every room.
This BTO belongs to a couple raising two young children, and the brief called for a home that was timeless, low maintenance, and built to hold everything family life accumulates. The TV console rests directly on the floor rather than floating, a deliberate choice that lets it bear the weight of heavier items while keeping its profile clean.
Beside the kitchen, a dry pantry expands the space available for everyday essentials, freeing the counters for use rather than storage.
Their daughter's room settles into a soft green, while their son's takes on a deep blue, drawn from his fondness for Totoro. Beneath the colour, both rooms follow the same principle as the rest of the home: storage maximised, a study area built in, and enough room left over for each child to grow into their space.
Even the small things had an answer. A niche was carved into the wall just past the entrance, catching keys, wallets, and everyday items the moment they walk in, rather than letting them pile up on a countertop. Above the bed, the headboard is lined with a soft strip of LED lighting, casting a warm, ambient glow that softens the room at the end of the day.
