SPARK has completed the conversion of a 132 sqm 3-bedroom apartment located in a Brutalist tower into a colourful, light-filled home, a canvas for the owners’ creative self-expression. Formerly compartmentalised spaces connected by a dark corridor is now arranged “enfilade” sequential open living spaces focussed towards the verdant panoramic views.

The existing entrance was modified to create a striking and spacious threshold which frames the interior gallery. The previously solid utility space is now a daylight filtering glass block wall flooding the kitchen with light. The space transforms into a soft glowing ‘lantern’ in the evening. The living space is anchored by a porcelain tiled island which acts as a buffer to the kitchen. Two storage volumes provide symmetry, balance, and proportion to the plan and sectional form of the living space.

Loose furniture and rugs are favoured over traditional sofas and ‘typical’ living space arrangements for flexibility and constant adjustments, consistent with the owners’ view that a home is a space for creative self-expression and freedom.

Line, circle and colour block motifs are animated by the shifting daylight and shadow cast by venetian blinds. Playful visual procession draws you through the spaces. Views are framed by colour portals, scenography is created by layered colour walls and objects placed in perspective, drawing you through the connected spaces.

Colour blocked ‘gallery walls’ slide to conceal the television and reveal artworks, the walls separate the living space from the study, bedroom, bathrooms and dressing room. The movable elements support the alternative the patterns of domestic liveability.

Coloured laminates are used extensively to colour block the entrance, kitchen, study and dressing room. Vinyl sheet flooring provides a seamless floor surface making the spaces appear larger and fluid.

The design of the entrance doors with circular motifs is mirrored in interior doors. Circular vision panels with textured frosted glass glow at different intensities with changing light conditions.

The apartment is a mirror of the owner’s love of colour and design, the apartment is a bright canvas for art and delightful objects and furnishings.

SPARK has achieved a lyrical and romantic space that combines craftsmanship with an imaginative use of space a negotiation between the ideals of Singapore’s residential modernism and the demands of contemporary life.
