Interior designer Cheryl Gay revamped this two-storey flat to suit the needs of her sister's family.
SINGAPORE – Designing for a family of five with three school-going teenagers, who each need their own space, is no mean feat.
This 1,550 sq ft executive maisonette in Woodlands Drive belongs to her sister and brother-in-law, and it was in almost original condition. Ms Gay says: “When they are entertaining bigger groups, this area can fit an extra table to accommodate additional guests.” Built-in carpentry was installed for the cabinets, drawers, countertop, sink and display areas, as well as space for the refrigerator and oven.
A similar approach was taken for the common bathroom on the second storey. The basin is perched above a long vanity counter. Dual bath and WC compartments are designed for simultaneous usage.Two of the bedrooms upstairs were reconfigured to accommodate the three teenagers’ needs. The two daughters share one room, but each gets her own private space within the room.
