Making Your HDB Flats Beautiful

Most of us have a terrible misconception that HDB flats in Singapore are ugly. HDB flats may be the most affordable option for most people, but that does not mean homes can't be gorgeous. In fact, some of the loveliest homes are HDB flats. Therefore, it ultimately comes down to what you make of your home. Scroll down for few examples. 
1. Studio Apartment Style

2. The Minimalist 

This minimalist design is enhanced by the uneven-toned cement screed floor, which provides an edgy feel to the place. Sometimes, it may be good to keep things simple.

3. Swedish Inspired 

You don't need walls to demarcate the spaces - changing the colors of the flooring will do. Don't hide the water pipes, make it part of the design instead. Add in a quirky bookshelf. You'll get yourself a stylish home.

4. Open Dining Concept
This open dining concept certainly creates an airy and carefree atmosphere. It can make a tiny space seem bigger than it really is.

5. Dare to be Different

Your walls don't have to be plain old boring colours. 
Add your personal flavour to it, do something fun.

6. Modern Minimalist-Industrialist
The design is simple, but it makes for a chic and cozy home.

7. Monochrome
Go black-and-white. Styling your home in monochrome can also exude simplicity and elegance.

8. Go Green
Those with a green thumb, why not consider having a garden in your place?

9. Open Concept
This absolutely gorgeous home has the living area replaced by the kitchen, which gives it the advantage of better air and light flow.
