Apartment renovation with two-color scheme

Located in Singapore. This old two-storey apartment was renovated into a luxury house with a sophisticated two-color scheme: Blue and Black.

According to the architects: The original pared-down interior stood in stark contrast with a context consisting of an eclectic mix of shophouses adorned with multiple colours, materials, textures and ornaments: There was a strong division between the interior and the external environment.

The interior design took elements found within the context, distilled and contained them within 2 ‘BOXES’: one BLUE and the other BLACK, and strategically inserted them within the original interior. One wonders if the new experience which oscillates between the original pared-down interior and the new ‘insertions’, abstracted from the eclectic external environment, will result in the illusion of a larger space: An interior that expands beyond its own spatial and physical limits into the external environment and the City.
