Japanese Inspired: Urban Small House Design in Singapore/ Nhakien House

Immerse yourself in the tranquil allure of Japanese simplicity within the bustling streets of Singapore. This urban small house design harmoniously blends modernity with timeless Japanese aesthetics, offering a serene oasis amidst the city's hustle and bustle. Explore how minimalist architecture, cascading courtyards, and carefully curated green spaces seamlessly integrate indoor and outdoor living, creating a peaceful retreat in the heart of the urban landscape.
Privacy is paramount in this design, with vertical timber screens providing a shield from the outside world, particularly for the upper-level bedrooms facing the street. Upon entering the home, guests are greeted by a serene ambiance, accentuated by a cascading water feature and lush greenery, setting the tone for the Japanese-inspired interior.
