Interior Designer Reviews

Selecting the right partner to bring our vision to life was a critical first step. After meeting with several designers across different firms, Brian Sio from SHE Interior stood out effortlessly. What truly set Brian apart was his sincerity and candor—offering honest, grounded guidance on what would practically elevate our space rather than simply agreeing to every request. His patient, approachable demeanor and deep empathy toward the spatial requirements my wife and I had for optimizing a compact footprint made him the clear choice to helm our project. Together with Brian, we set out to transform our apartment, perched high on the 53rd floor, into our personal *"haven in the sky"*—a serene sanctuary floating far above the urban bustle, where Japanese minimalism and contemporary luxury effortlessly converge. An intentional entrance & smart kitchen design Upon stepping through the front door, a tranquil foyer establishes an immediate sense of calm and arrival, anchored by ambient architectural lighting and a tactile, hand-textured feature wall on the right that gently delineates the space. Directly adjacent lies the reconfigured kitchen, engineered around strict fengshui principles and uncompromising storage solutions. Brian executed an efficient galley layout framed by rich, dark timber cabinetry juxtaposed against clean white countertops with safety-conscious, soft-curved profiles. Dual parallel ceiling coves and concealed under-cabinet task lighting illuminate the prep surface and undermount stainless steel sink with a soft, glare-free luminescence.  The dining statement & bespoke mini-pantry Positioned high above the city, establishing a distinct yet highly functional dining zone was our paramount spatial requirement. We needed seamless integration for a wine chiller and expansive storage, while ensuring the dining hub served as a striking visual centerpiece. Brian translated these requirements into an exquisite, bespoke reality. At the heart of the space is a custom 5-seater island-style dining table topped with solid granite. Suspended directly overhead is an organic, cloud-like pendant light—specially imported from overseas to anchor the Japandi aesthetic. Integrated beneath the granite top are two spacious cutlery drawers, a tailored niche housing a 30-bottle wine fridge, two ergonomic dining chairs, and a space-saving bench with built-in storage.  Extending fluidly from the entryway to the dining table, Brian installed a matching granite mini-pantry counter. Serving as our all-day beverage hub, this surface accommodates our coffee machines and Bluetooth speaker. Floating above is a golden-bronze glass display cabinet with integrated lighting to showcase our travel mementos, curated collectibles, and fine spirits. Beneath the pantry top, Brian ingeniously concealed a multi-tier pullout shoe rack facing the entrance, alongside an open storage niche facing the dining table for effortless access to our favorite bottles.  A continuous feature wall & sky-lounge ambiance Transitioning into the main living zone, the interior maintains a clean, continuous architectural line through clever concealment. The guest bathroom door is seamlessly flush with the hallway wall, creating an unbroken plane that extends effortlessly into the living area—where the study door is similarly integrated flush before terminating cleanly at the TV feature wall. A refined vertical light channel subtly accentuates the study doorway boundary, transforming a structural transition into an artistic detail.  In the evenings, dimming the primary lighting transforms the space into an executive sky lounge. Warm architectural cove lighting reflects softly off the high-gloss dark marble flooring, imbuing the room with an ethereal, cloud-like ambiance.  The bespoke TV feature wall Anchoring the living room, the TV feature wall serves as a masterclass in custom joinery and spatial proportion. The television is mounted against a layered, floating white panel backlit with warm, continuous LED illumination, balanced at the top-left by a subtle fluted timber accent. To the right, Brian integrated soft-lit, rounded display alcoves to house curated decor. Below, a floating white media console with dark-tinted flip-down cabinet fronts hovers above the polished marble floor, neatly concealing hardware and cabling while casting a soft halo of light underneath.  A completely transformed study Stepping through the flush door into the study reveals a tranquil, dedicated focus zone grounded by rich, warm timber parquet flooring. The original wardrobe was demolished and replaced with a full-height, wall-to-wall cabinetry system, maximizing storage utility while eliminating visual clutter. Nestled within the bay window framing panoramic sky vistas is a custom daybed bench featuring integrated storage drawers underneath. Layered lighting concealed within architectural niches allows us to effortlessly dial in the perfect lighting scheme to suit deep focus or evening relaxation.  A serene master bedroom sanctuary The master bedroom extends the Japandi Lux motif into an intimate, cloud-like retreat. Warm timber flooring underfoot pairs with a soothing neutral palette to evoke immediate restfulness. The focal point of the room is a custom cantilevered floating bed frame anchored against a rich timber headboard wall with concealed perimeter lighting. Beneath the bed, an intelligent motion-sensored lighting system activates the moment a foot touches the floor at night, casting a gentle, low-level illumination to guide the way to the bathroom without disrupting a restful state. Floor-to-ceiling sheer and blackout drapery are recessed into an illuminated ceiling cove, allowing us to frame the sky views by day or block out light completely for restorative sleep.  Perched high on the 53rd floor, every detail—from fengshui alignment and hidden storage to bespoke granite craftsmanship, smart motion-activated lighting, and custom floating joinery—harmonizes to create a tranquil, elevated sanctuary that my wife and I love coming home to every single day.  Looking back across this entire design journey, my wife and I wish to express our deepest, most heartfelt gratitude to Brian. Throughout the entire process—across every design iteration and technical detail—Brian guided us with unwavering patience, genuine understanding, and without a single complaint. Navigating a comprehensive home renovation can be demanding, but standing in our completed home today, it truly feels like finding the rainbow at the end of the storm—and it was worth every single moment.

I had a really great experience with Jayden from Kabi Studio during my ID search. Although I ultimately decided to proceed with another ID, I still felt that Jayden deserved a review because of how much effort and thought he put into my home proposal 🥹 Out of all the IDs I met, Jayden was definitely one of the most creative and invested in understanding the kind of home I wanted. I really appreciated that his ideas didn’t feel generic or like something that was simply copied and pasted from another project. He took the time to understand my preferences and came up with thoughtful design ideas that gave the space its own character. He was also very patient with my many questions, changes and budget considerations, and I never felt rushed or pressured into making a decision. Even when I eventually told him that I had chosen another ID, he was incredibly gracious and professional about it, which I really appreciated. It was honestly such a difficult decision because I genuinely loved Jayden’s design direction and could really see myself living in the home he envisioned for me. In the end, my decision came down mainly to my own renovation budget and having to be practical with what I could comfortably spend. If budget hadn’t been a consideration, I would have definitely chosen Jayden 🥹 While I can’t comment on the renovation execution as I didn’t proceed with Kabi Studio in the end, I can definitely say that my consultation and design experience with Jayden was a very positive one. Thank you again, Jayden, for all the time, effort and creativity you put into my proposal. I genuinely appreciate it and would definitely recommend speaking to him if you’re looking for an ID who is creative, thoughtful and genuinely invested in designing a home around you 🤍

I had a very disappointing experience with this renovation contractor. Throughout the project, he repeatedly failed to keep his promises and continuously gave false deadlines, causing significant delays to my renovation. At one point, my house was left completely empty for three weeks with no workers on site and no progress made. Despite collecting almost 90% of the payment, the renovation was not even 50% completed. He also promised to bear half of my STORHUB storage fees due to the delay but eventually refused to honour his commitment. When I requested a refund, he refused, claiming that he had already paid deposits to his workers and that they were busy with other projects. After collecting our 90% payment, we can see a delay in his response and replies to us. He started to give late replies or ignore us. The lack of accountability, poor project management, and broken promises caused my family a great deal of stress and inconvenience. I hope future homeowners exercise caution and ensure they have proper payment schedules and written commitments before engaging other contractors. Most importantly, do not engage this contractor.

It was a pleasant 1st discussion meeting on 13/12/2025. We have been following up with Alexa regarding the revised quotation for many times, but she always has reason for the delaying until the end she no more reply. 1st follow up on 8/1/2026, 8.06am- She replied on 9/1/2026, 12.01pm saying that she was oversea & will update me on Monday. 2nd follow up on 13/1/2026, 9.45am- No respond from her 3rd follow up on 15/1/2026, 9.39am- She replied on 17/1/2026, 1.28pm saying that she was in hospitalized from food poisoning & will revert us ASAP. 4th follow up on 30/1/2026, 8.46am- She replied on 31/1/2026, 3.02pm saying that she caught the viral flu after her hospitalized. She said she was rushing all her backlog & will revert to us ASAP. 5th follow up on 23/2/2026, 9.27am- No respond from anymore

We’ve had a great experience with ✨ Natalie ✨ . Her professionalism, ownership and calmness throughout the process was exceptional. She takes tremendous care in building our home, almost as though it were her own, and never takes shortcuts. She often catches details that we completely miss during our site visits - e.g. she noticed that our door 🚪 knobs were installed too high and took the initiative to send them back for correction. We didn’t even notice it! This type of ID where to find 🤣 When one of our chosen dark wood laminates went out of stock, instead of taking the easy route and simply suggesting an alternative, she guided us through the matching process again, considering our other laminate, wall and floor colours. 🌈 There’s also a lot of behind-the-scenes work — measurements, material selection, proposals and coordinating with different vendors — and she took the bulk of that off our shoulders. Her design taste is excellent as well, and we’ve never had an instance where we second-guessed her recommendations. 💪 We’re approaching the end of this “not so straightforward” reno and are happy with seeing our dream home come to life. ❤️ Seriously dont look any further if you want a great experience for your reno!

Joshua is a very professional ID who plans everything well and communicates efficiently throughout the renovation process. He made the entire renovation journey smooth and hassle-free. I would definitely recommend Joshua and Messing to my friends and family when they need renovation services. Thank you so much, Joshua and Messing, for making my renovation an easy and enjoyable experience. Kudos to the team! 👍

Thank you for the awesome renovation work done! Everything was on time and I managed to get my house ready even much earlier. Will definitely recommend it to my friends! Good pricing and Aldrick was prompt in responding to my queries! He is really helpful and will provide me with value-added services... He did some of my minor stuff without charging me additional cost too! Thank you so much once again~ 🙏

It was our second time engaging Cindy Teong to design our new home. Previously we had engaged her to work on our first condo and the end results were marvellous, even our buyer chose to buy our unit because of the design after viewing several other units in the development. This time round, she did not disappoint us again with the end results, giving us precious and feasible ideas during the renovation process. She’s not pushy and understands the needs of our family, providing us with the best cost-effective solutions for our home. I have also recommended her to my family and friends before and they are equally happy with her service. I would highly recommend Cindy as a well-rounded and experienced ID for everyone looking to have a smooth and enjoyable renovation process and results! A big thank you to Cindy once again!!

We met Natalie at an ID fair by Qanvast, and she stood out to us from the start. During the pitching phase, she provided the most visuals, which really helped us picture what our home could look like. We also felt that her design style matched our preferences the most, so choosing to work with her felt quite natural. Throughout the renovation, Natalie has been really helpful and responsive whenever we had questions or feedback. She was always quick to get back to us and kept us updated on the progress of the renovation, which gave us a lot of reassurance along the way. She also helped us stay on track with the renovation timeline and was always on top of things. We genuinely enjoyed working with Natalie and really appreciated how attentive and involved she was throughout the whole process. We’re very happy with how everything came together and are glad we had Natalie as our ID for our home.

We recently completed our home renovation with Renologist, with Rebecca as our interior designer, and overall it has been a very meaningful journey for us as first-time homeowners. From the initial discussions and design planning to material selections and the actual renovation works, Rebecca was patient in listening to our ideas, preferences and concerns, while providing practical suggestions along the way. As with any renovation, there were definitely some hiccups and adjustments throughout the process, but what we appreciated was Rebecca’s responsiveness and willingness to work through the issues with us. Whenever we raised concerns or spotted areas that required rectification, she was open to discussing them and coordinating with her team to find a solution. Throughout the renovation, we were quite hands-on and took an active role in managing many of the details, selections and decisions ourselves. While the process required us to be more hands-on in certain areas, Rebecca was always receptive to our inputs and worked with us to accommodate the direction and preferences we envisioned for our home. Ultimately, it was a collaborative process that required significant involvement from both sides to bring the renovation to completion. Seeing everything gradually come together and finally being able to move into a space that feels like our own has been very fulfilling. Thank you Rebecca and the Renologist team for accompanying us through this renovation journey and for all the coordination and effort behind the scenes. We’re excited to finally enjoy our new home and appreciate everything that went into making it happen!
