In this week’s episode, we delve into James' journey of renovating his apartment in the vibrant neighbourhood of Tiong Bahru. With a vision to fuse modern sophistication with traditional charm, James embarked on a meticulous design process to transform his living space into a reflection of his personal style and the rich heritage of the locale.
At the core of James's design inspiration was the desire to cultivate a masculine, urban ambience infused with hints of Bali's serene vibes. Central to this vision was the preservation of the apartment's original elements, a homage to its history and character.
As visitors step into the home, they are greeted by an entryway adorned with a corten rusty steel door, reminiscent of the wrought iron gates that are ubiquitous in Tiong Bahru.
The living area serves as the focal point of James's apartment, designed to be open and fluid, conducive to both relaxation and socializing. Custom-made furniture and shelving, inspired by the scaffolding commonly seen in urban landscapes, lend a contemporary edge to the space, while a swivel TV adds an element of versatility, allowing James to enjoy his favorite shows from multiple angles.
In the kitchen and dining area, James opted for an open-concept layout, fostering a sense of connectivity and conviviality. A custom-made travertine table and island anchor the space, providing a focal point for gatherings and culinary adventures.
The balcony, with its original mosaic tiles and Scandinavian-designed wooden chairs, serves as a tranquil oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of city life. Here, James has created a sanctuary where he can unwind amidst lush greenery, reconnecting with nature in the heart of the urban jungle.
Even the bathroom has undergone a transformation, featuring a micro-cement sink countertop for an industrial aesthetic and hidden storage cleverly concealed behind the mirror. Every detail has been meticulously curated to enhance functionality without compromising on style, resulting in a space that is as practical as it is aesthetically pleasing.
Through his renovation journey, he has succeeded in creating a living space that transcends the ordinary, offering a captivating fusion of modern luxury and timeless elegance.
As always, special thanks to the homeowners opening up their home to us.

I've watched countless videos of renovations, but this one might be the best I've ever seen. An amazing marriage of beauty and livability in such a small space. He mentioned the design detail of vertical dowels to add texture to a couple of doors, but he didn't point out that the vertical striations actually form a theme throughout the home, and even appear by chance on the concrete wall he exposed in the living room. I wonder if he took his cue from that. I was struck by his clever design of the bathroom sink for two people. (The only detail that seemed rather confining was the niche for the stove top.) This should win awards.
Wow, your attention to detail is incredible! It's amazing how every aspect of the design seems to tell a story. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and insights! 😊
Sometimes old unit design way more cooler than new design. This person got a very nice taste, he preserved the old house history well...
There's something special about preserving the history and charm of older units.
Now THIS is how you renovate an apartment. Masculine and warm, the open kitchen, living, patio with natural lught and plants is Superb! Well narrated by the owner too. Bravo!
Yes 😊They absolutely nailed it!
Easily one of the best apartments on stacked. 100% catched the vibed. I wouldn‘t change one thing!
It's fantastic to hear that the apartment caught the vibe perfectly. 😊
The rotating TV is one of the most creative things I've seen. What a beautifully styled house.
Such a genius move to do that 💯
I love all the restored elements, and styles of furniture, but the large wall art, plants and sculptures are really resonating in me. This is truly a beautiful home!
Thank you! We're thrilled the details resonate with you. 😊
⭐⭐⭐⭐ The home exudes an understated elegance and sophistication, without sacrificing comfort or function.
We're delighted you appreciate the balance between elegance and comfort in the design! 😁
it's unreal how well masculine style blends with elegance.i love the soft light and comfort without the opulence that makes you say "i'm home". so..i think you're a hopeless romantic.
The blend of masculine style and elegance is truly remarkable.
Much nicer than others… very good taste of the owner in design.
The owner's taste in design shines through beautifully. 😊
As a interior design aficionado, I’m blown away by the design of your home! The balance and harmony of your space is incredible and amazing. So well executed and carefully crafted…you are gifted and talented…thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us…I wish you many happy moments in your life and home! Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭 Zurich
Your words are so kind and uplifting! Thank you for your warm wishes from Switzerland! 😊
I've watched hundreds of similar videos by various channels over many years, and this particular apartment is one the best I've ever seen. As a Feng Shui consultant for many years, an oddly shaped floor plan can be a nightmare, but the way this is organised is superb. Attention to detail and the organisation of each area of the space is excellent, and beautifully executed. I would be happy to live in such an apartment myself.
It's fantastic to hear your perspective, especially as a Feng Shui consultant. Thanks for sharing your insights! 🌟
Love this space!! One of the best homes on stack
Glad you love it! It's definitely a stand out 😊
❤ This is the perfect curated juxtaposition of contrasting textures, clean lines, the old, the new and impressive use of lighting to emphasize the said elements!
This is one of the most beautiful apartments I’ve ever seen. You should be in interior design. The amount of thought that went into every inch of the design is amazing.
Every detail was carefully considered, and I'm thrilled you appreciate it.
i dont think i've seen a better renovation than this, ever! its so unique, so functional. the design language flows throughout the home! im blown away.
Wow, what a compliment! We're thrilled you love the renovation so much. 😊
Stunningly stylish and warm. I’m totally blown away by the transformation , watched the video in full without fast forwarding . 😅
You wouldn't want to miss a single detail 😊
So many beautiful and clever features of this home - the front door, the door in the master bedroom that fits perfectly in a "niche" when fully opened, the gorgeous shelf that runs from the hallway to the living room, the open bar, the TV that swivels, the stunning island/dining table, the accessibility of bathroom/powder room amd how beautiful the entire space is, the folding mirror in the masterbath that's also for privacy, and that study room that converts into a guest bedroom. I also love that the owner chose a Murphy bed that is minimalist and "clean". One can sense that even a simplistic Murphy bed was well thought of. Really stunning design 👏👏👏
It's a stunning design that deserves all the applause! 👏
Extremely well thought out and beautiful !
Every aspect of this space is absolutely stunning!!! It definitely isn’t sterile but, rather, it has so much warmth and dimension because of the materials used, as well as the minimal styling. It’s obvious that every aspect of this project was extremely well thought-out. It’s just exquisite.
Your appreciation truly means a lot to us! 😊
What a perfectly formed, stunning renovation !
Absolutely stunning! Thanks for admiring the transformation! 💯
This is one of the best thought-out renovations I have ever seen! Your Architect/Designer, or both should be super proud of themselves. I know that this is a masculine space, but this old girl really loves the warmth of the wood and the life of the greenery juxtaposed against the endurance of the stone. I would live there in a heartbeat❣️❣️🇨🇦
The attention to detail is outstanding. Glad you appreciate the harmony of elements. 🤗
Stunning!!
Anyone notice how the painting in the master bedroom reflects the exact colors of the bedsheets and blanket
Everything blends perfectly 😊 Such attention to detail 😊
This is absolutely perfect and gorgeous!
Thrilled you think so! It's perfection personified.
Congratulations to the proud home owners on this beautiful home!
Kudos to the homeowner for creating such a stunning space. 🎉

Indeed! The attention to detail is impressive 😊
Absolutely stunning wow
Thank you! 😊
최고네요~ 전체적인 구조가 서로 유기적으로 이어지다 문 하나로 차단되기도. 클로짓의 상단 간살도 굿 아이디어~🎉
The attention to detail in this apartment is inspirational. It's a beautiful complex to begin with, but the owner has modernised this home very tastefully. Love the use of timber and iron throughout the home as it blends perfectly with the softer, greenery elements.
The attention to detail is truly inspiring. A masterpiece! 😊
I've loved the whole design, and that wooden frame for TV is just amazing, an elegant, solid protection, as well as an integrated design element
Absolutely! The wooden frame for the TV is both elegant and functional, seamlessly integrating into the design.
The result of your vision to plan, critque this home for your own style is superb. I feel every part of your home as an absolute sanctuary.
Thank you! It means a lot that you see it as a sanctuary. 😊

This is absolutely stunning. The esthetic is so modern and clean. Its beautiful
The modern and clean aesthetic is truly stunning.
No me imagino cómo debe ser limpiar el panel que rodea a la vitrocerámica 😅….. siempre me sorprende ver la imaginación de la gente para crear espacios 👏🏼
What a well-designed, liveable and beautiful apartment. It may be considered 'masculine', but as a woman I find it ideal. I think the use of patinated stone, plaster and concrete together with the warming wood and greenery makes it calming, warm and cocooning. I like the very well considered storage and flow. Bravo.
It's all about that perfect balance. Glad you appreciate its charm and functionality. Bravo indeed!
this project is filled with so many creative ideas. thanks for sharing this!!
Glad you enjoyed the creative ideas. Thanks for tuning in! 😊

Such a beautiful well thought design space and very cozy yet modern at the same times and the best part kept some of the elements of traditional Singapore unit design. Good job !
Thrilled you appreciate the blend of modernity and tradition!
Very classy, well done.
Classy indeed!
Wow, you have exquisite taste. This is so lovely!
Thank you! It's truly a testament to their exceptional taste.
This is such a amazing home with greatly thought out details.Nice!
Thank you so much! We're thrilled you appreciate the details.
Absolutely stunning but i will say this: feels like a hotel room. Even the art is just like random color blobs. I wish people with great taste for decor weren't afraid of adding some personality into the space.
Thanks for your honest feedback! Adding personality can definitely enhance a space. It's all about finding the right balance.
I agree. Feels like the decor was chosen just for a ‘look’. None of the ‘inherited from my dad’, present from a friend’, bought this on a holiday’ stuff. Some colour wouldn’t detract from the overall. But I also love this space and would happily live here.
I absolutely love that there are two entrance and exit, front and back stairs of this home. I love homes with a secondary back exit, not just a primary front entrance. The new layout / redesign is actually practical and pretty.
Practicality at its finest! Glad you appreciate the thoughtful design.
What a great apartment. Probably my favorite that this channel has featured. I particularly love how they worked around the master bathroom and wardrobe facing the neighbors directly with the mirror, and the accompanying sink is such a great detail.
The way they tackled the challenges with creativity and attention to detail is truly impressive.
Incredibly beautiful. The designer is super talented
The designer's talent shines through brilliantly. Matched with the homeowner's amazing taste 😊
Love this place!
Glad you do! It's truly lovable.💯
I love the apt home, it is beautifully done and functional with lots of storage that is hidden. Love the plants and where they are.
Functional and stylish, with a touch of greenery. Thanks for the appreciation!
Very beautiful, calming, and timeless design. Well done.
Absolutely timeless! Thanks for the appreciation 😊

The renovation overall is truly exceptional.
Love the entrance door! And the dining table/prep space combo…Beautiful!
Glad you enjoyed those features! 💯
Beautiful home

Really nice house, feels spacious & bright. Likes the pottery & dash of greenery too. Pre-war houses always give off a mystical vibe. Only thing cannot wok hei.

One of the nicest designs in this channel. Kudos to the designer!
The design stands out, and credit also goes to the talented designer behind it! 😊
Wow, I'm absolutely blown away by this video! Every detail of this apartment is just breathtaking - from the carefully chosen materials to the stunning lighting and the seamless integration of nature. What truly sets it apart is the perfect balance between functionality and preserving the building's history. I mean, did you see how the door effortlessly fits into its space when opened? That gave me goosebumps! Honestly, if anyone ever asks me about my dream apartment, I'm just going to show them this video.
The attention to detail is remarkable. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 🤗
