Loft living in HDB
Living Room
Loft living and HDB living is 2 distinctly different style of living. One conjures images of community living while the other proposes a more stylish and cool lifestyle. The interior design for the HDB apartment located in the Central district challenges the notion that low cost housing built for the masses by the Housing and Development Board in Singapore is not exciting and dark in nature.
The designer of this 1200 sq. ft apartment (Amir Sultan) has engaged the Zen of HDB living and Loft living simply by a process of exclusion and inclusion. The strong vertical and horizontal structural elements were included, chaos of urban living, next to a busy highway excluded : with the use high frosted glass windows and domestic order maintained by clever detailing and concealed storage spaces.
Light and Space of the new apartment is celebrated with open planning and indirect lighting. Natural materials and architecturally flushed details were used to achieve a sense of lightness and elevation. The structural element of the existing apartment is juxtapositioned into the sequential space of loft living to give the design, a both intellectual and spiritual feel.
