Natural wood decking needs a good varnish every year to maintain it in tip-top condition. This is especially true for Singapore’s weather. The hot sunny weather coupled with sudden rain can mean that the decking is subject to a lot of expansion and contraction within a short period of time. But what if you’ve neglected […]
We all yearn for a life beyond four bare walls. These artificial green walls, or vertical garden walls, that we created and installed for a condominium showroom recently satisfies this desire perfectly.

A well-designed outdoor roof terrace can easily become your favourite part of the house because it brings us closer to nature, and gives a much needed sense of space in our dense, urban living conditions in Singapore.
