HDB Interior Design SingaporeThoughtful HDB interiors for everyday living.
Homenex helps HDB homeowners shape warm, practical interiors through space planning, material direction, storage design and careful renovation coordination.
Designed for how Singapore HDB homes are lived in.
A good HDB interior is not only about style. It needs to support storage, movement, cooking, rest, family routines and the feeling of coming home every day.
We begin by understanding how you live, then shape the design around clarity, comfort and practical decisions.
Design priorities
What matters most in an HDB renovation.
Storage & Carpentry
Built-ins are planned to support real use, from entry storage and kitchen organisation to wardrobes and display areas.
Kitchen & Dining Flow
We consider cooking habits, appliance placement, lighting, work surfaces and the connection between kitchen and dining.
Bathroom Comfort
Bathroom design balances materials, lighting, fittings and practical maintenance so the space feels calm and durable.
Material Direction
Wood tones, laminates, tiles, stone textures, paint colours and lighting mood are aligned into one coherent home.
For BTO, resale and compact HDB homes.
Each HDB home has a different starting point. The design process should respond to the home you have, not force every layout into the same formula.
BTO Homes
A new home gives you a clean starting point. We help shape layout, storage and material direction before renovation begins.
Resale HDB Homes
Resale homes often need more planning around existing conditions, layout changes, storage, finishes and long-term comfort.
Compact HDB Layouts
Smaller homes benefit from clear space planning, lighter materials, flexible storage and careful visual balance.
Clear planning before renovation begins.
HDB renovations can involve many small decisions: layout, cabinetry, materials, kitchen needs, bathroom fittings, lighting, timeline and budget. We help organise these decisions before work begins, so the renovation journey feels easier to understand.

HDB renovation questions homeowners often ask.
Do I need a floor plan before starting an HDB renovation conversation?
A floor plan is helpful, but it is not required for the first conversation. You can first share your home type, ideas, lifestyle needs, budget range and preferred timeline.
Can Homenex help with BTO and resale HDB homes?
Yes. Homenex supports both BTO and resale HDB homeowners with design direction, space planning, material selection, carpentry planning and renovation coordination.
How much does an HDB renovation cost with Homenex?
Typically S$45,000 – S$60,000 for a 4-room BTO, S$55,000 – S$80,000 for a 4-room resale flat, S$60,000 – S$75,000 for a 5-room BTO and S$70,000 – S$95,000 for a 5-room resale flat, including carpentry and design fee. The HDB cost guide has 3-room and executive flats too.
Can I use my own design inspiration?
Yes. You can share reference images, preferred styles or ideas. We help translate inspiration into a practical design direction that fits your home and daily living.
Do I need an HDB permit for my renovation?
For some works, yes. Under HDB's rules, demolishing or hacking walls and replacing hard floor or internal wall finishes need a permit, and bathroom finishes in a new flat can only be replaced after the first 3 years. All work must be done by a contractor in HDB's Directory of Renovation Contractors, and Homenex uses DRC-listed contractors.
How long does an HDB renovation take?
With Homenex, a full renovation of a resale HDB flat typically takes about 3 months from key collection to move-in: about 2 weeks of design and planning, then 8 – 12 weeks on site. A smaller scope takes less time.
