We are extremely happy with our ID Andy. He was very detailed in managing the project job site, always one step ahead to rectify small mistakes that otherwise would have delayed the timeline. The drawings provided were also very intricate and we are always kept updated on the progress of the renovation. Even though it is currently a peak-period for home renovations, Andy was also one step ahead and pre-planned to book manpower in advance so that I got my house in the timeframe that he promised. Overall, we are very satisfied to finally have our dream home so quickly and effortlessly, hope to work with D'Brain Studio again!

This is our second time working with Jack for our new home. He was also the ID for our previous home and did an excellent job. For this new home, we were looking for extra storage solutions to solve the limited space each room had, we wanted a tatami platform but were concerned that it would turn out to make the room too cramped. However, Jack was able to come up with a design that exceeded our expectations, solving both our storage solutions while still keeping the design in line with the theme we were going for. We are very happy with the outcome and look forward to working with Jack again in the future!

This company wasted our time! Gave them more than 2 months to finish work but we had to keep chasing them. In the end some of the work we had to get another company to do it. Avoid at all cost. They must have alousy boss too. Hopeless! Initially qlll sweet talks, assured with can be done before we moved. After we made 2 payments, they delay schedule and did not update us. Cannot even give us the design on time!
Hi Yane,
We regret to hear that your experience with us was less than satisfactory. We take every feedback seriously to ensure our clients are satisfied with our service. We’ve checked internally and would like to provide some facts for a clearer understanding of the situation:
The COVID situation has caused a lot of disruption to our industry due to manpower shortage. Although this should not be the reason for a flexible timeline, we have explained and continue to seek your understanding on this as there were also additional work orders requested midway through the project which required additional carpentry work that needed more time to fabricate. In normal circumstances, we would not delay works without valid reasons given to our clients.
We respect your decision to seek an alternative source and will make every effort to resolve your concerns accurately.
We would however advise you to refrain from any personal defamatory comments. The company takes such remarks very seriously and we would prefer to resolve this amicably or legally rather than for you to tarnish our boss’s reputation online.
Regards, D’Brain Studio

We highly recommend DBrain Studio’s Mr Henry and Heng! They were very accomodating, very patient and they went the extra mile to make sure we get the renovation we want. The original layout of our home was extremely cramped and the materials used for the kitchen were badly damaged, so Heng was able to design a space the needs of the entire family. My kids love their new bedrooms and I especially adore the new kitchen and toilets!

Ever since our memorable honeymoon in England, my husband and I have made it a yearly affair to travel back. We fondly remember the breathtaking sights and heartwarming food, our home away from home. When the pandemic hit, causing our travel plans to be cancelled, we decided to bring the joy of our travels into our new home by blending parts of the Victorian era with bits of modern day design. The final result is simply breathtaking! Thank you D’Brain Studio.

Extremely thankful to have engaged Winn to create our dream home we can proudly call our own! We sourced through 6 different Interior Design firms for our home renovation and Winn was the only designer that was both agreeable and accommodating to our requests. He helped to open up many possibilities with different space planning concepts and gave us many choices for design. Communication throughout the project was frequent, which we appreciate and workmanship was ideal, only with minor touch ups needed afterwards. Extremely thankful to have engaged Winn to create our dream home we can proudly call our own!

I wanted a chillax bar theme and I chose D'Brain Studio because of the nice designs on their Instagram and Facebook page. They were also reasonably priced and managed to keep my renovation within my budget. I really like what they did to my kitchen, the design matched what I had in mind and the overall project ran very smoothly. Plus, Winn was very patient and accommodating to his clients.

Out of 8 ID firms, we shortlisted 3 firms including D'Brain Studio. D'Brain was able to match our budget without cutting our requirements. Besides that, Kin and Heng volunteered to bring us to the actual project site to take a closer look at their workmanship and materials used. This is a plus point for us and hence D'Brain was our chosen ID. Our house is small, only 1000sqft but all our needs have been 'squeezed in' in this small space. Every corner is designed in accordance with our preferences. We were happy working with the assigned interior designer, Heng, who was patient, accommodating, and helpful! Although there was a slight delay with the project but we are satisfied with the overall outcome.

A reliable designer team - very energetic, young, creative and knowledgeable. Had a great working relationship with the ID. Love that they update me frequently on the progress of the renovation. Follow up services after project completion helps a lot! Did my kitchen, toilets and living room extensively and they all turned out great! Will definitely recommend them to my family and friends. Worth it!

Grace and the team were very attentive and professional. I received comprehensive consultation for design, layouts, materials, etc. Even asked for multiple revisions and they always delivered. Received great advice and recommendations - very knowledgeable and prevented me from high costs by stopping me from making wrong decisions. I am very happy with how my home looks now. Thank you so much for the hard work!

Had a great experience with this ID! Thanks Mona for the professionalism by assisting me to create such a modern and beautiful home. Process was smooth right from the start. The design perfectly suits my taste and practical for my everyday lifestyle! Didn't know how so many storage spaces can fit into our small flat. Am totally impressed and my family enjoys being at home a lot! Comfortable yet stylish home. Great job team!
