Special Thanks:

Firstly, congratulations on securing your Parc Woods @ Tengah 3 Room unit! 

Now the real challenge begins: renovating your home without regrets! 

We've reviewed over 1500+ renovated BTO homes — We've seen both good and bad. In this article, we’re sharing 'straight to the point' + 'no-fluff' layout ideas and hacks to help you maximise your home.

Navigate:

1. Plan for Storage

Bedrooms often become cluttered with clothes and personal items if there isn’t enough storage. 

To combat this, we suggest ensuring you have adequate storage solutions in place. 

Pro-Tip: Future-proof your home by planning for more storage than you think you need e.g. having kids, elderly parents moving in etc.

For Example: Consider under-bed storage boxes for seasonal clothing or shoes you don’t wear frequently. 

Built-in wardrobes can also maximise space while keeping everything organised and out of sight.

2. Maximise Your Bedroom Space

In bedrooms, especially those shared by siblings or guests, consider using bunk beds or lofted beds to maximise space.

Bunk beds allow for 2 sleeping areas without taking up additional floor space. Alternatively, lofted beds create space underneath for a desk or storage solutions.

This approach not only optimises the layout but also adds a fun element to the room. We suggest you ensure that safety features are in place if children are using the upper bunk.

3. Incorporate Natural Light

Natural light can make any space feel more open and airy

For Example: Choose sheer curtains that allow light to filter through while maintaining privacy.

We also recommend arranging seating and other furniture to create open pathways that encourage light to move through the space.

4. Opt for Multi-Functional Furniture

In a smaller space, every piece of furniture counts.

We recommend investing in multi-functional furniture that serves more than one purpose.

For Example: A sofa bed can double as a guest bed when friends or family visit.

This way, you can maximise your 3 Room BTO without compromising on comfort.

5. Use Your Vertical Space

Storage is crucial in any home design, especially in a 3 Room HDB with limited space. To keep your home tidy, use vertical space for storage.

By taking advantage of the height of your rooms, you can create more storage without sacrificing valuable floor space.
