This week is a special episode, as we get to tour Kelly Latimer’s shophouse home in Joo Chiat that has been perfectly designed to fit the needs of her family.

All the walls inside the home has been gutted out, and the result is an open and expansive living and dining area. The traditional TV console has been done away with, and in its place, a concrete bench to allow people to sit and converse freely (plus the ever popular Samsung Frame TV).

She likes to cook and entertain, so the kitchen was designed specifically for her. From the height of the console, to the accessibility of the spice racks and cabinets. She also made storage spaces for her kitchen equipment so as to be able to hide them away neatly when not in use, but yet be able to access them easily.

The dining area is equally open, and made unique by the special Mother and Daughter windows, which is a great way to frame the space, and is a cool, quirky touch (her son wasn’t born at that point!). Even the hanging lamp above the dining space is different, as it’s made out of recycled felt that is designed to absorb the sounds around in order to have a clearer conversation at the dinner table.

The space has been specially separated into two, one named the public space, and the other as a private living space for the family.

The kid’s bedroom is tucked away at the back so that they can entertain friends and family in peace without disturbing their children’s sleep. The room is extremely customisable, it can be opened up as well as split into two with a divider when the kid’s want some privacy.

The master bedroom features a red-brick feature wall, and tons of storage. But the coolest part has to be the smart glass installed. With a clap of the hands, it reveals to see the front of the house, where she can keep tabs on her children, as well as the front door.

Special thanks to Kelly for being such a wonderful host, and for showing us around her lovely family home. For more, please visit: https://www.instagram.com/kellylatimer/?hl=en
