The Brief:
This home was remodeled for a family of four who wanted to update old fixtures and bring more warmth into their space. The goal was to create a home that felt fresh, comfortable, and better suited to their everyday life.
About The Remodel
This renovation was for a family of four who wanted to update old fixtures and bring a warmer feel to their home. They like the style of farmhouse-style furniture but were drawn to minimalist finishes and needed help finding the right balance.
We supported with design and planning, focusing on smart storage, improved lighting, and a better HVAC setup. The entryway saw one of the biggest upgrades, setting a fresh tone for the rest of the home.

Living Room & Kitchen
In the living room and kitchen, we removed the old-style moulding and introduced more contemporary finishes for a cleaner look.
Bulky light fixtures were replaced with warm-toned, inlaid lighting that feels softer and more modern, no longer crowding the ceiling space.
The newly renovated kitchen now includes plenty of storage, with a pantry tucked behind large wooden doors. The overall layout flows more intuitively, making the space feel more easygoing.
Bedrooms
Both the master and kids’ rooms were renovated with a more modernized take, creating warm, welcoming spaces that act as blank slates for the family’s own furniture.
Off the primary bedroom, a small dressing area adds function, while an enclosed balcony offers a quiet spot to enjoy the sun or settle in with a book.
The children currently have two rooms, one for sleeping and one for play. As they grow and no longer share a room, the playroom can easily transition into a second bedroom.
“Our goal isn’t just to renovate or update a space; it’s to solve everyday problems in a way that feels natural. When a home works well, you don’t even really think about it.”
Aaron Chin- CEO, Hong Kong
Entryway
The entryway was redesigned to create a clear separation between the entrance and the rest of the home.
A glass door with minimalist metalwork forms a soft arch, adding character while keeping the space open.
We included a built-in bench for putting on and removing shoes, durable tile flooring for easy cleaning, and plenty of shoe storage to keep things tidy.
