Blending architectural heritage with thoughtful interior renewal, this home reflects both cultural depth and modern-day living
Set within the verdant heritage enclave of Goodwood Hill, this project reinterprets a conserved black & white bungalow into a sophisticated family home that balances historical integrity with modern-day comfort. The design embraces the stately charm of colonial architecture while layering in the warmth and textures of Nanyang heritage alongside contemporary sensibilities.
Talk to Ray Yuen about Goodwood Hill
With conservation guidelines limiting structural changes, the transformation focused on the interiors, enhancing spatial flow, functionality, and atmosphere to meet the evolving needs of a young family. The result is a home that feels both timeless and personal, where tradition, craftsmanship, and modern living exist in seamless harmony.
The design narrative honours the architectural legacy of the site while creating an environment that encourages connection, creativity, and calm. Each space was thoughtfully reimagined from areas for gathering and play to quiet moments of retreat, ensuring a meaningful balance between elegance and livability.
Materiality and detailing were approached with care, curating a palette and selection that reflect cultural depth, refined simplicity, and artisanal character. The interiors are layered with subtle nods to heritage, yet remain distinctly contemporary in tone and experience.
Goodwood Hill is a testament to sensitive and context-driven design. It reflects a respectful evolution of place where past and present are held in conversation, and where everyday living is elevated through intentional, enduring design.
