HomeRenoGuru:
Did you have a clear vision in mind when you embarked on your renovation?
Syahirah:
Yes,our home renovation journey began with a clear vision in mind.
Basically, from our travels to other countries we stayed at a lot of nice hotels and were inspired by the décor. We wanted a home that was classy and timeless, yet cosy at the same time.
A neutral colour scheme and mirrors enhance the impression of space
HomeRenoGuru:
Were you happy with the service from U-Home?
Syahirah:
We were very happy with the service provided by U-Home. They listened carefully to what we wanted, and were very helpful in suggesting materials. They showed us a lot of samples in their showroom, which really saved us a lot of time, as almost the entire selection of colours and materials was done in one location.
HomeRenoGuru:
Were there any unpleasant surprises along the way?
Nazri:
Naturally, there will always be some things that don’t go according to plan, but U-Home was very quick to rectify them. They were very prompt and responsive whenever any concerns arose.
HomeRenoGuru:
What do you love most about your renovated home?
Nazri:
We love our balcony, especially the high ceiling that gives an airy feel. My wife and I like to sit out here in the evening and drink tea.
The balcony features an airy double volume ceiling
Nazri:
We also love our marble feature wall, which we insisted on even though there are much cheaper materials available. It makes our home truly unique. And my wife really appreciates the kitchen, for the practical and spacious layout.
The spacious kitchen is distinguished by Peranakan-inspired tiles in a neutral palette
Syahirah:
We especially like the tiles, which are distinctive yet quite subtle and neutral. They are inspired by Peranakan tiles.
Nazri:
We also love our bathrooms, which give a luxurious and hotel-like feel.
Nazri and Syahirah love their hotel-like bathrooms
HomeRenoGuru:

Yes, most definitely.
Syahirah:
Thanks to U-Home, we are now proud owners of our dream home.
