The Colchester Grove
SERANGOON GARDENS, SINGAPORE
NARRATIVE
multi-gen family rooted in unspoken rhythm style
The Colchester Grove house was made a reality through meticulous planning, thoughtful design and creative iterations as a response to the client’s brief.
Working within a 2-storey+attic building height constraint, we aimed to maximise the gross floor area (GFA) without compromising on ceiling heights. The final result is a unique split-level layout that connects all levels of the new-build in a visually stunning manner, while still allowing for seamless transitions that flow throughout different areas of the house.

SPATIAL PRECISION
Structural DNA
The home is envisioned as a retreat within the city, where architecture transforms the limitations of the urban terrace into a sequence of light-filled spaces designed for gathering, reflection, and family life.
A meticulously engineered framework supports expansive volumes, visual continuity, and the seamless integration of contemporary living requirements.
ENCLOSURE
LAYERED PRIVACY
The architectural envelope carefully orchestrates light, views, and screening to create a sense of openness while preserving intimacy within a dense urban context.
HVAC
CLIMATIC HARMONY
Environmental strategies are discreetly embedded throughout the home, harnessing natural ventilation, daylight, and thermal comfort to enrich daily living.
FINISHES
TIMELESS CRAFTSMANSHIP
Authentic materials, bespoke detailing, and enduring finishes are selected for their tactile richness, elegance, and ability to mature gracefully with time.
