Both my husband and I would like to express our gratitude towards our Interior Designer Mr. Enzo from The Design Practice. As both of us are having businesses in both Singapore and Malaysia, we’re residing in both countries as well. Basically we are only staying in Singapore maximum 7 days a month. Enzo from The Design Practice and few other IDs from different companies contacted me after I registered my account in Qantas. We met one ID from another firm initially. She wasted our $2000 and almost two months time waiting for the 3D drawings. I then got in touch with Enzo and arranged for a meet up and discussion. Both my hubby and I are so pleased and glad that we had Enzo to take care of our 5rm HDB renovation works. We were in Malaysia and overseas for business trips throughout the whole renovation period. We had never ever step into our HDB to monitor the work progress as Enzo would take care of everything for us. Enzo is a very helpful, kind, articulate, knowledgeable person. He would respond to our WhatsApp enquiries typically within an hour. Enzo took every small details into considerations and would recommend the best material based on our budget. Enzo took pride in his work and gave us his 100% attention to all our concerns. Enzo helped me with all my furnitures and fitting selections and even helped me to arrange for electrical appliances deliveries and also installation of my digital lock on the grille and wooden door. Oh yes, not to forget that he actually took the extra miles to help me to purchase nice chandelier and dinning light from Johor Bahru. He helped me to look for curtain vendor from JB too. He’s a very resourceful person and would always do his best to help his clients to save cost. I would strongly recommend The Design Practice and Mr. Enzo as your ID if you want a stress free renovation experience. Never heard of anyone having stress free renovation? You should try them out. I am sure that this would be the best choice for your renovation journey.

One of the reasons we picked The design practice because Enzo was very prompt in his response. We met up many times to discuss the design. Enzo had been very patient when we wanted to change something and he gave good suggestions and advice. Workmanship is also good, however there were some small areas that were not well done but he followed up and fixed them. We love the design of the house and i dont think there is any part of the design that we do not love.

Alex and his Boss, Raymond provided us with excellent, out-of-the-box idea for the construction of our loft. Our Condo is small with a 4.5m ceiling height living room and hence the location of staircase is of paramount importance. We went through ideas with numerous ID companies but Raymond's idea suit our requirements the most and the final product proved that it really worked. We worked with Alex on all the detailing and selection of materials and colour schemes. He is practical and patient to explain all the colour suggestions and accomodated to our constant changing of colour. He even bought the materials to our home for our re-selection in the late evening upon our request. The company has a team of regular subcontractors that work amiably with each other and communicate well which is very important for an ID Contractor. After sales service is also excellent. Alex continues to attend to our request to do touching up work even after handing over.

I engaged Enzo of The Design Practice for renovation works in my kitchen (wet and dry) and roof deck. He also managed the painting works. Through the process, I was impressed with Enzo’s professionalism. He was responsive, competent, creative and a great problem solver. I was most grateful when he eased the inconvenience of the renovation process for my family and I by staging the works such that it would cause minimal disruptions to our daily lives - specifically, minimising downtime inside the house by deploying max number of workers; also ensuring that various jobs take place concurrently, in different areas of the house. I was most pleasantly surprised that he was able to find ways for cost savings by refurbishing my kitchen doors, and sourcing for materials at a good price. I’ve frequently been told to be wary of contractors who are unscrupulous or tardy, but Im very glad that my experience with The Design Practice was entirely the opposite - Enzo was sincere, and delivered his work in a timely manner. What’s even better was that charges were very reasonable too!
