Finding New Space and Purpose for HDB Apartment in Singapore: Office and Home
Space is a precious commodity in most big cities across the globe and in places like London, Melbourne, New York City or Singapore, the urban landscape only offers limited square footage; a space that you need to pay a premium for. That is why the many HDB apartments in Singapore are still so very popular and accommodate for a majority of the urban population. But PROJECT#13 designed by Studio Wills + Architects in the city is one that revamps these spaces of the past and gives them a whole new purpose with smart design that maximizes the limited area without creating a sense of clutter.

The brief for the architects was to bring privacy to these uber-small units and to transform one into both an office space and living zones; one flowing into the next in a seamless manner. With a white and wood color scheme on the inside, the units feel refreshing and light-filled and the loft level sleeping area ensures that there is ample room underneath for the living and kitchen areas. With a reception and lounge on one side and meeting and dining spaces on the other, there is still plenty of room for everyone to interact with ease.
