This week, we visit Kelly's cosy 2-room BTO flat in Bukit Batok. As an architect who founded Studio Oasis Architects, this 505 square feet apartment is a perfect example of how a small space can be transformed into a comfortable home. The first thing Kelly did was to remove the internal drywall partition, creating an open concept living space.
Kelly's kitchen is a highlight of the apartment, featuring custom carpentry and a beautiful pastel pink color scheme along with a quartz countertop. She chose to retain some of the existing finishes of the unit, which inspired her choice of color.
While it is an open concept space, she did incorporate a sliding panel that can be used to segregate the different spaces when needed.
Storage is not an issue in this apartment as Kelly cleverly hid a full-height wardrobe system behind a flushed panel.
The main feature of the house is the platform bed that extends towards the study, creating a seating area as well. A screen was installed at the bed for privacy, and the design language carries on behind the bed and sliding panel, creating interesting light patterns on the floor.
For the dining, Kelly opted for a low dining table to create a cosy atmosphere, similar to a sofa set. There is no sofa or TV wall in the living area, but instead, Kelly has open shelving where she keeps her books.

The dining/reading area is so cozy, like something you'd find in a manga cafe. And finally a home owner that doesn't shy away from bold colored walls.
Thanks for your kind words!
As more people opt to buy smaller flats like the above, it is a delight to see how creative one is to transform the nondescript space to something interesting. More of these please, Stacked Homes!
Thank you, Sandra! 🥰
If you like seeing how people design smaller homes, you might also like the account 'NEVER TOO SMALL'. I've been watching their videos for almost a year now and they've really inspired me to start designing my own small space more efficiently :)
Her explanation clearly articulates her design thoughts and priorities. ❤ Very cosy unit for her.
Definitely!
Kelly’s work is a hug of warmth and comfort. Isn’t that what we all want in a home.😸
Thank you!
That kitchen and bathroom had me so impressed. It feels bigger than a 47sqm space! It doesn't feel cramped but it also doesn't feel sterile like many small spaces designed by architects.
Glad you liked it! 😁
Not easy to shoot a 2-room flat due to small spaces. But this turns out very well to showcase that even small spaces have their purpose and unique design. Bravo Stacked Homes! Hope to see more of such small flats more.
Thanks! Glad you like it!
Adorable love the pink kitchen it’s not a loud or soft pink it balances out very unique 👏🏾 congratulations to her 😄
Agreed! Thanks for watching!
luv the pastel pink, 10 out of 10. Though
at 1:55 , the black window frame provides too much of a contrast in my book .
Wow nice! Thks for showcasing more 2 room bto.....❤️......warm and awesome feeling home....one of the best so far I hv seen
Thank you so much 🙌🏻
I ❤this space! Home owner has done wonders for this tiny space! Functional and looks so cozy. Best one I have seen so far. Lovely!
Thank you so much!
appartement tout en charme , douceur et fluidité
Really good design. One of the few I've really liked that truly take into consideration how people feel in the space and not just purely based on technical rules. Everything kind of flows nicely.
Thank you for watching! 😍
If I lived in this apartment, I would never leave. So cozy!! Such a dangerous apartment for a homebody like me
Glad you like it!
Well done! Finally … someone who shares my thoughts on 2rm hdb flat design. HACK that wall that separates the bedroom and “living room”. So silly to keep that wall…end up with 2 dinky (unattractively small) rooms instead of 1 large room with endless design possibilities. I would even go as far as installing a Murphy bed. Anyways … love everything … down to that romantic colour on the accent wall.
Haven’t been that excited about a stacked home since that shop house in Joo chiat with the indoor palm trees. 😊😊😊
Each to his/her own. Not all 2room flats owner are singles.

agreed...
not all people like the open concept.
some rather have designated area for work and rest.
with work in their line of sight, some people cant sleep easy.
its like a form of agoraphobia, they like cosy spaces to relax...like a baby being swaddled
but it doesnt mean they want cramped spaces like hong kong.
Thank you Andy! 😄
Well thought out small space that full of exquisite detail.
I would have never thought this was a tiny HDB flat.
🤔😲
Wow, I love this place! such a nice use of space, it is stylish and still looks very comfortable. Great work!
Thanks so much! 😊
Love the outlay, optimise of space, ingenious crartion🎉
Thank you so much!
love the design - not the usual "hdb block" feeling, 💖💖
Thank you! 😊
Cosy, simple and functional.
Thank you for watching, Wendy 😍
What a beautiful space.
A beautiful space indeed! 🤩
Exudes comfort and ease. Apartment seems to have high ceilings, very lucky
Glad you like it!
I absolutely love this space, really cosy and so many possibilities to improvise as time goes by, not restricted to stagnant built in furniture that can get boring over time. Cant wait to collect my keys hopefully no further delays.
Thanks for sharing!
This is by far the nicest and best flat I've seen. The layout is so clean and surreal, very relaxing to the eyes.
Really lie this. The kitchen is such a joy. 💗
It really is!
She is dam talented. And this is akin to a nice studio
Yes!
This is beautiful. It feels like you can really breathe deep in this space.
Lovely cosy flat. HDB should really open up the 2rm BTO to those who are younger, say 30 or even 25 so they can live a stress-free life within their means and not spend their life financing the house loan.
Last thing govt wants is to allow people of that age to live a stress free life. Boosting the economy requires young adults to work hard and grit through
Government have open up to all married couples. What are you talking about?
@@zhen86as in open to younger singles
@@zhen86 I think bummers meant young singles
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 😁
Beautiful and calming. If you don't own a bunch of stuff and keep it simple, you can open up a small space. I love the wood design. Thanks for sharing!
Yes! Thank you!
Stunning ! I want to engage Kelly for my new place after I firm up on it !
Thanks for your encouraging words!
Very smart architect with unusual taste for the apart and sense for „warmth and cosiness“... Good job! 👍
Thank you for your kind words!
Very well designed at a reasonable cost! 👍
Absolutely!
how much does it cost? 😮😊
This apartment is compact but comfy. Kudos to the owner/ architect of this place for designing such a great place for her.
Thank you for watching, Tammy! 😁
How amazing that the red wall fits into the “cozy” so well.
It does!
I absolutely LOVE the pink kitchen! Such a unique idea, but it’s perfect in this apartment.
Glad you like it! 🤩
The house is really really nice and tastefully done!! Don’t look like a 2 room flat at all!!
Thanks for your kind words!
i'm obsessed with all the round organic shapes omg what a dream!!!
🙌
Love the layout that break boundaries and creating new spaces!
Thank you!
very elegant looking space. I like the usage of wood and especially the rounded corners like in the BR.
We totally agree! Thanks for watching, Gail 😁
Love the small place ... beautifully designed
It really is!
Really well thought and executed. Congratulations to the Architect
Exactly our thoughts too!
Love the tutu kueh cushion!
🙌
Great design.. i lived in Singapore before and this is not a typical hdb flat.. salute..
Thanks for your kind words!
This is very very nice!!
Glad you like it!
taking so many notes. LOVE THIS
Glad to help!
very comfy, nice and practical design
Glad you like it!
love the layout, white beige instead of wood color would have been amazing.
Glad you love it!
wow!! very nice totally different!
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful! Love from Germany
Thank you! 😊
Perfect I love it 😻 ! But how do you access the space at both ends of the wardrobe?
Near the bathroom there is a floor to ceiling storage wall unit. I LOVE the rounded corner it’s very smooth creating visual interest while remaining unobtrusive. Where can I get this?
Hello! You can check with the ID!
Nice and cozy house!
Glad you like it!
Like the design... like the wood screen and the sitting area
Thanks!
Simple and beautiful 😍
Thank you! 😊
Almost thought I clicked into Never Too Small
🤔

Thank you for watching!

Really amazing and inspiring 😊

Beautiful design thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
what a lovely home
Thank you!
this is so smart! i love it ❤️
Thank you, Shana! 😍
Best layout
Thank you!
not sure about the bed plataform, it looks a little chunky and the screen is almost not working as space divider, but love the rest of the apt, very simple and well designed!
Thank you!
Very nice
Thanks!
Beautiful~
Glad you think so!
Only fine art
Thanks for watching!
4 thumbs up!!! including my toes!!!
Thank you for watching! 🤣
wow. incredible aesthetic. i couldnt tell it's a 2 bedroom flat
Glad you like it 😊
Amazing ❤❤
Thanks 😄
So pretty!
Thank you for watching! 🤩
Love it!
🥰
Platform bed not that elder friendly; a renovation cost of $45k is a bit steep for 2rm BTO, I think my 4Rm replacement flat (previous 3Rm was enbloc) is about that amount (include built in kitchen table with hob & kitchen cabinet with hood)
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
excellent
🙏
Lovely cosy kitchen! May i know name of laminate colour? Thx!
So lovely
It is!
i need her coffee set up so badly
🤩☕️
Amazing.
Thanks!🙌
The coffee corner sold it for me. Now I want my own 500-600 sqft place :(
😂 It is a really well-designed home!
Really like this one, especially the curves being part of the design. I like the open woodwork and sensible layout. Does the bed open into more storage? I think a hidden access door under the mattress would be a good addition.
Thank you for watching 😁
inspiring design 👍🏻
Glad you think so! 🥰
So much music I cant hear her sometimes.
Thank you for your feedback.
Money solves all renovation problems.
🤔
What does 2-room flat mean? I was waiting for the other room to be featured but this is all I got. I am just used to hearing 2-bedroom condo (in Canada) that means 2 bedrooms. So anyone please help me out. Thank you.
In this case it refers to 1 bedroom + 1 living room.
3-room usually means living room + 2 bedrooms.
😁
Your wardrobe sliding doors have no handles. How do you open?
How much for this whole renovation and design
👌
Thank you for watching :)
Beautiful. I wish I could live in a place like that. What is a household shelter? Greetings from Canada.
Thank you, Cheryl! 🇨🇦
HDB Household Shelter is a Bomb Shelter.
Neat
Thanks!
where is that dining set from!!
😁
I'm a little curious, is there storage under the bed?
If there is she will have said it.
🤔
It's a bit like New York City, with a view into other people's windows, except that the outdoor actives of the arts like ballet or the opera or like the Met Museum is sorely lacking.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
I thought those walls shown as bold lines are retaining walls & can’t be hacked?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Nice. She must be quite minimalistic. Not much storage space and no TV.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
