David Loh literally broke down some walls to create an apartment unit that is breezy, cosy, and infused with South-East Asian influences.

“This unit is 25 years old and still had the old designs of plaster ceiling and raised platforms in the bedrooms when we bought it. But we wanted an open concept with maximum ceiling height and breeze passing through the unit. All over his house, one can spot various plants like staghorns, philodendrons, Boston ferns and even a thriving Neem tree!
“We wanted a cosy home with wood, garden and warm lighting to make it a place of rest and where you can invite friends over to chill. We have hosted up to 40 guests for a dinner party and it is great to see them congregate in different parts of the house. The home has a warm setting with generous use of hardwood and complementary wicker furniture. Rustic Persian carpets as well as Loh’s photo prints on walls add personality to the space.
