ELPIS Interior Design

I was first recommended to Elpis by a friend because I was skeptical about finding IDs who are trustworthy. I was first introduced to both Frederick and Zhiqi and I am so thankful that they are really patient with us throughout the whole design and renovation process. I would say that time is really tight on our hands as we got to move out and make sure that the renovation works are done within a stipulated timing. Both of them have really helped my family and I a great deal, from commencing the hacking works early to making sure that we can at least shift in comfortably according to the timing we had. Zhiqi has proven to be a great senior designer, who accommodates to our design requests, mainly to maximise storage space yet to keep the house looking spacious and minimalist. Frederick on the other hand helped us a lot in time management, selecting of the right tiles based on practicality and solving the issues we have on hand. They have both gone the extra mile throughout the renovation journey. Besides that, both of them have strong relational/communication skills. They have built such great rapport with my family and I am truly thankful for their sincerity. They still do keep in contact with us as well and I really appreciate them for that. We truly love our home design and would really highly recommend them for anyone who is looking for genuine, reliable and capable IDs!

We worked with Stepher and Audrey to renovate our 5-room BTO. It was a really pleasant and smooth experience throughout the process, from our first meet up to the final hand over of the flat. They provided multiple revisions in the renders and were extremely helpful in giving us precious advice through their own experience. They prioritized practicality while still maintain the aesthetics of our house. We love their work ethics and efficiency above all else and were completely at ease with them looking over our renovation. The whole renovation process took slightly less than 2 months and we are very happy with the after service provided by them too! They are very prompt in their replies and very professional and amicable throughout our correspondence! We'd highly recommend their service to all!

My wife and I approached Elpis Interior Design in Jan 2022 to enquire about renovations for our 2 bedroom condo unit. Frederick and Zhiqi were the IDs assigned to us. Renovations took place from Oct-Dec 2022. Frederick and Zhiqi were patient and met with us a couple of times before we committed to run through their proposals & give an indicative quotation after reading through our brief. We appreciated their sincerity and their ideas for renovation. They offered many good ideas for the placement of built-in fixtures and the general layout to help maximise space (our unit has no store room/bomb shelter). They were also able to work within the budget we had, and I personally think they are one of the more reasonably priced IDs out there, having made similar enquiries with other IDs. Throughout the various meetings and renderings, Frederick’s experience in the industry really showed, and he was knowledgable about the different renovation materials (eg. hinges, drawer tracks) and advised us on our various options, on their durability etc. Outside of the meetings, we liaised with Zhiqi more regularly and she was always responsive and on hand to discuss/explain things to us. It was our first time doing home renovations, and the process was a smooth one, with all the key aspects including liaising with the MCST handled by our IDs. Where certain aspects of the design/function didn’t align with our vision for our new home, they would offer new ideas and amend the renderings according to our requests. The timelines were quite tight because the unit would be tenanted until shortly before we needed to move in after our wedding, and the window of time for renovation was a bit tight. We emphasised this during our meetings and while Frederick and Zhiqi gave the usual caveats, we’re grateful that they finished work ahead of schedule and well within the time we had allocated. I like that they didn’t overpromise and did their utmost best like arranging for the parquet floor tile layers (which we understood would be the main bottleneck in terms of time) well ahead of time. The build quality is good, and where things fell short of our expectations - there were really not many but one in particular was the parquet flooring in our master bedroom being quite rough in some areas – they arranged for the issue to be rectified timeously, until we were satisfied with the final product. The cabinets and hinges/drawer hinges feel smooth and sturdy, and the laminate finishings are refined and uniform (eg. no jagged edges or uneven tones). We’re also quite happy and proud of the aesthetic outcome – everything fit well together just like the renderings and the advice on accompanying furniture was also on point. On the whole, we are very happy with the renovations done and would recommend Elpis Interior Design, and IDs Frederick and Zhiqi. We are very grateful to the both of them for helping us to realise our dream home!
