Ardmore Park

Condominium, Singapore
3,466 sq ft
The Brief

When the owners acquired this landed property in Ardmore Park, they had a vision: the spaces felt compartmentalized and dated.

The challenge was creating a unified aesthetic across multiple zones. It wasn't about decoration—it was about building a home that felt intentional and refined across every detail.

Our Thinking

A landed property gives you architectural flexibility that condos don't have. We started by asking: How do materials tell a story across different zones?

This meant thinking about how marble and wood could work together. Every material choice was made with longevity in mind—not trends, but finishes that develop character over years.

Living + Dining

This is the primary gathering space, and where the design philosophy becomes most visible.

The Space

Proportions were carefully considered to balance openness with intimacy.

Material Strategy

The flooring shifts between warmer wood tones in the dining area, creating subtle zoning while maintaining visual continuity. The choice to contrast light and dark woods reflects a design philosophy: materials should have presence, not apology.

Seating & Proportion

Furniture scale was chosen to respect the room's proportions.

Art & Accent

Brass or copper accents provide warmth throughout. These elements aren't decoration—they're intentional details that reflect the design's sophistication.

Lighting Strategy

Evening lighting emphasizes warm tones through brass/copper fixtures.

Kitchen

Flooring Transition

The marble island countertop is a dramatic statement—veining that draws the eye. Brass fixtures provide warmth against cool stone surfaces.

These choices will develop over time—marble will show use gracefully, brass will warm with patina, wood will deepen.

Foyer

Entry

The foyer makes an immediate statement with [material]. This isn't a hallway—it's an intentional arrival experience.

Master Bedroom + Bathroom

The Bedroom

The master suite is designed as a private retreat from the more theatrical public spaces.

The material palette shifts here to dark headwall with warm lighting, creating an intimate counterpoint to the dramatic living areas. Ambient warm lighting runs behind the headboard.

The Bathroom

The ensuite is a spa-like retreat with marble as the primary material.

Lighting is warm and ambient—this is a space for ritual, not just function, The fixtures are strategically positioned to not compete with the marble.

Bedroom

Consistency

Material palette is lighter than the master, but references the same design language.

Common Toilet

Rigor

Even in this compact space, materials don't compromise—marble walls, refined fixtures, warm lighting.

The Result

Walking through Ardmore Park, the design philosophy is clear: every zone has character but feels cohesive.

The owners use the space for both formal gatherings and quiet daily moments.

Living With It

Three years in, the home has developed beautifully. The marble shows subtle wear patterns in high-traffic areas

The material choices have proven themselves—durability meets beauty.
