Sujonohun creates an ode to the slow life with a soothing minimalist interior in Singapore house
Home should be a place of sanctuary and a space that provides comfort, safety, and feelings of peace in equal measure. Even as one desires a simple design scheme, there is much to be done to make this effortless mix work.
When homegrown firm Sujonohun was tasked to give a detached house in Singapore a complete interior makeover, the design team was clear that they needed to achieve these qualities and more within the 12,000 sq ft house. The abode is home to a family of six: a couple, their children and the husband’s parents. And one of the key challenges of this project was the need to reconfigure the floor plan to provide more privacy for the family.

One of the notable changes is seen in the entryway, where an elongated foyer puts sufficient distance between the interior and the main road. A row of trees provides shade and adds a verdant layer to this area. This long passage also helps to create a sense of arrival, as the owners start to relax and wind down as they make their way back home.
The living and dining areas look out towards this tranquil scene, which is beautifully framed by a pair of picture windows on the open-plan ground floor.
