Interior Designer Reviews

A huge thank you to Stanley and Dylan from Empyrean Design Studio for turning a house into a reality "Home" of my very own style 🥳 Thank God everything ended smoothly within the targeted timeline of 3 months. There were definitely few challenges and unexpected issues, or hiccups along the way as human nothing is 100% perfect. However, they did their very best to solve it as smooth as possible. Best and truly appreciated was every single details were highlighted and updated constantly with no hidden cost. Everything were well discussed before making any decisions no matter how small were the issues. They shared their opinions and helped making good decisions together along the way making it a smooth experience indeed. Love max the kitchen, masterbed room and master bathroom. Everything came into reality from the 3D designs and planning. Overall, thank God it worked out great 👍🏻 Having understanding and professional good relationship to make a "Home" a reality is Important 💖 Thank you guys 💖

Hi everyone, I would like to share some feedback as we are now at the final stage of my renovation. I want to express my appreciation to Vincent for his support and professionalism throughout the entire renovation process. From planning to execution, he has been responsible, responsive, and patient in addressing our questions and design adjustments. He also coordinated well with the contractors and kept us updated proactively at each stage, ensuring the progress and workmanship were well managed. We are very satisfied with the overall outcome. Thank you Vincent for the hard work and dedication. Highly recommended! 🙏😊

I engaged Kelvin to design my 4-room HDB and the experience has been excellent from day one. He has been extremely flexible and accommodating to all my requests, even when I changed my mind a few times along the way. His responsiveness is impressive — he replies quickly and always provides practical, well-thought-out solutions to any issue I raise. On top of that, Kelvin has a very good design sense; he knows how to balance aesthetics with functionality, and it really shows in the proposals he created for my home. I’m very happy to be working with him and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and talented designer.

Cecilia is the most efficient and creative ID! We had quite a number of unconventional requests and she managed to deliver with speed and precision. We will definitely recommend her to our friends for their renovation journeys!

My renovation is about 80-90% done at this point. We originally engaged Katelyn for her design and we are comfortable explaining to her our ideas. Her design sense resonated well with us and we would seek her opinion on other stuff like furniture selection etc. Like any renovation, mine had its share of hiccups. As new home owners, there are areas that we are not familiar. This led to some shortcomings during the project, but Katelyn did put in the effort to resolve issues timely for the project. She also adapted the schedule to accommodate our travel plans. Part and parcel of the renovation journey. Happy with the carpentry workmanship. I am looking forward to the final outcome.

The atmosphere I want to express for Comuna Interior is rooted in a distinctly Singaporean sense of minimalism: calm, clean, modern, and deeply intentional. It is the kind of environment where simplicity is not emptiness, but clarity; where every material, every texture, and every line is chosen with purpose. The feeling should be one of quiet refinement, the type of space that naturally slows the mind, encourages ease, and supports a lifestyle grounded in balance and intentional living. Nothing should feel excessive or ornamental. Instead, the beauty comes from restraint — the soft harmony created by well-chosen materials and thoughtful spatial flow. The palette is gentle and contemporary, leaning into warm neutrals and subtle natural tones that feel at home in Singapore’s tropical light. Think soft beige, warm sand, muted taupe, white with warmth rather than starkness, and light grey that feels airy instead of cold. These tones are complemented by occasional accents in charcoal, matte black, or soft sage, used sparingly to add depth and rhythm. The goal is a palette that invites calmness and feels cohesive across different rooms, creating a seamless sense of continuity. Materials play a critical role in shaping this minimalist identity. Natural woods with light or medium tones, smooth stone-like surfaces, textured fabrics, and matte finishes form the foundation. Oak, ash, birch, bamboo, and muted walnut tones blend effortlessly with micro-cement textures, woven textiles, and soft fabric upholstery. The tactile feeling should be comforting, grounded, and subtly luxurious. Everything should feel pleasant to the touch — not glossy or overly polished, but warm, matte, and refined. This approach reflects the quiet sophistication found in modern Singapore apartments, condominiums, and landed homes where space is optimized, clutter is controlled, and everything has a place. Lighting is one of the most important emotional elements. The mood should be soft and layered rather than bright and harsh. Warm lighting temperatures, recessed lighting lines, hidden LED strips, diffused glows behind panels, and gentle wall washes all contribute to a serene atmosphere. Natural light should be embraced: sheer curtains that allow sunlight to filter in softly, reflective surfaces that subtly brighten the room without overpowering it, and layouts that encourage open flow. The lighting design should feel calm, never clinical, and always supportive of relaxation and clarity. The emotional experience is one of quiet luxury — understated, peaceful, and timeless. It is a space where you instinctively feel lighter, clearer, and more grounded. The layout should prioritize openness and effortless movement. Storage should be invisible, integrated, and clean. Decorative elements should be minimal but meaningful. Spaces should evoke clarity rather than emptiness, comfort rather than complexity. This Singaporean minimalism isn’t about less for the sake of less; it is about creating a home or environment that feels breathable, intentional, and mentally freeing. It is simplicity with soul, calmness with character, and minimalism with warmth — the essence of refined modern living in Singapore.

Katelyn has been very patient with our requests and consistently acts on them promptly whenever something is raised. She provides professional aesthetic advice without being pushy, which makes discussions feel very comfortable. We also feel comfortable speaking with her which is something that gives us a strong sense of security. Overall, we appreciate her responsiveness and the assurance she brings as the project progresses.

I engaged Benny and Alvan for my home reno, and they are IDs who know their craft. Throughout the entire process, they offered practical recommendations that I wouldn’t have known on my own. They were able to propose solutions that made sense. They were always willing to accommodate my requests and went the extra mile to make things happen just the way I envisioned. Overall, I’m satisfied with the results and grateful for their hard work.

We are happy with the outcome of our renovation project with Mac. His patient and accommodating demeanor was a major plus point throughout the project, transforming what we have thought to be a typically stressful experience into a smoother one by ensuring we felt comfortable with every decision. We appreciate his fast response time to our communications. Furthermore, Mac has helped with coordinating and dealing with the various contractors, managing schedules, overseeing work, and engaging us in resolving any issues that arose. We appreciate all his efforts in the process and delivering the completed project.

Engaging Earth interior design was a huge mistake , lacking of discipline and coordination throughout the whole process. This revamp of my two bathroom project was taken noting that we are staying in the house and the mass amount of debris , equipments, water pails , big pile up of cement and tiles were scattered everywhere like a manufacturing factory .The designers are dressed very sloppily with T slippers and were seldom on site with supervision responsibilities. Anyways, it would not make any differences with a punch card attitude which I realised later on .. the plumbers refused to lay protection gear so we ended up with a faulty door with scratches and unable to close . There are hints of low quality job like constant dragging of job completion time frame , undelivered 3D design , scarce communication job requirements with their plumbing and tiling foreign workers which we thought it is just hiccups along the way . The decision to end the project despite incomplete renovations was when we entrusted them with our house , the door was left open and the tiler decided to raise a big , ugly , outdated shower kerb to his liking . The whole thing was a add on disaster when the “hulk @ Lloyd came into this project with directive commands to his team to stop all works threatening to leave all the debris , equipment and others in my house defending the grave mistakes. The poor workmanship of cracking and uneven tiles on the bathroom , poor plumbing works was a far sight of what we saw at the showroom .. up to now , my two bathrooms are incomplete and the same way as it is but we are glad to end this devastating experience.

E&S Contracts (ID Raymond Delon) delivered our reno project on-time, above scope and within our budget. Time was of essence to us as we need to move back to our house after the reno within 2.5 months as were renting out a co-living space which was very expensive. Raymond kept to his promise and delivered the project to our liking and stringent timeline with his team, and a total makeover of our house which closely resembles to his proposed 3D design with no let-up on material quality and durability. He's very meticulous in his project planning and has eye for detail and has a good acumen on design and concepts imbued with good engineering skills - not many IDs that we know has multi-faceted skills and knowledge like Raymond. We have moved in to our house and we are extremely delighted with the outcome of the reno by E&S Contracts and with their continued support. The emphasis on customer relationship, quality of work and after-sales service is something that owners can count on E&S Contract. Definitely have to rate them a 5/5 for their service.

My hairdresser recommended this company to me. I was at a loss as the carpenter recommended by my sister assigned an inexperienced person to me (most likely because my project is a small one). Nurul was assigned to me. Renovation is a stressful process with things potentially going wrong at every turn so I am fortunate to have had such a patient and kind ID assigned to me. Nurul always tried her best to accede to my requests. I am especially grateful to her for expediting the hacking of my flooring. If she had not done that, I would have had to move my furniture into a storage facility and stay with my parents. I would definitely recommend this company to others.
