Landbay Condo by D'Marvel Scale

D’Marvel Scale reimagines a 1,000‑square‑foot, two‑bedroom condominium into a calm, contemporary home shaped by spatial clarity, concealed utility and finely tuned material choices.

Designed for easy daily living and effortless entertaining, the 25‑year‑old unit has been reconfigured from top to bottom to prioritise generous circulation, an expanded master suite and a cohesive open living domain.

Based in Singapore, D’Marvel Scale is an interior practice focused on tailoring layouts to client lifestyles through precise reconfiguration, functional flow and custom carpentry. The studio’s work privileges visual cleanliness, multifunctional zones and seamless detailing that enhances both aesthetics and day‑to‑day use. Landbay Condo articulates this philosophy with concealed thresholds, integrated storage and adaptable furniture that make every square foot work intelligently.

The original compartmentalised plan is replaced with an expansive, connected arrangement that privileges movement and sightlines. Hidden doors discreetly absorb the bedroom corridor and a powder room, maintaining a continuous wall plane and a calm, uninterrupted visual field. From entry to living and kitchen zones, transitions are legible yet understated, supported by a consistent floor finish that links spaces while preserving distinct functions.

A custom feature wall near the entry offers partial transparency and a subtle sense of arrival. Facing into the lounge, it also houses the TV console, performing as both divider and joinery to organise the main volume without bulk.

The living area is anchored by a neutral sofa, round coffee table and soft rug, creating a relaxed centre for conversation and viewing. Adjacent, the island operates as a social fulcrum: a concealed table system extends to accommodate formal dining, then tucks away to restore generous circulation. The dry kitchen fronts the island with a modern sink and ample prep surface, encouraging casual meals and everyday workflow.

Behind a fluted‑glass sliding door, the wet kitchen handles primary cooking. Light grey, handleless cabinetry, a dark sink, and a marble‑effect backsplash establish a quiet, utilitarian elegance. Under‑cabinet lighting supports task work, while a black range hood becomes a crisp graphic note. The separation keeps odours and splatter contained, preserving the calm character of the open living zone.

A restrained palette underpins the home’s clarity. Large‑format tiles run through the living spaces and powder area to create a seamless, easy‑care surface. Bedrooms and study adopt vinyl flooring for warmth, comfort and noise control. Joinery and wall panels in light timber tones bring cohesion, while quartz countertops and splashbacks add durability with a refined finish. Metallic accents, including a bronze‑toned faucet, bring a subtle layer of polish.

Tactility arrives through fluted glass, upholstered seating, textile rugs and softly grained cabinetry. Lighting is quietly architectural: warm perimeter strips and under‑cabinet lines wash surfaces, while recessed spots provide general illumination. The overall effect is calm and legible, with shadows and highlights lending depth to an otherwise minimal composition.

Conceived as a tranquil retreat, the master bedroom expands to accommodate a full‑height wardrobe wall with minimalist flat‑panel doors and black hardware. A powder corner integrates a built‑in vanity that can double as a compact work surface, framed by muted grey‑brown cabinetry with open niches for display. Soft grey and white bedding, sheer drapery and a slightly deepened wall tone establish a gentle focal plane. A round ottoman placed centrally offers an easy perch and a touch of softness.

Light grey marble‑effect tiles wrap walls and floors for a unified, elevated feel. The main bathroom features a wall‑mounted toilet, a white vanity with generous closed storage and a mirrored cabinet to expand light and sightlines. Black fixtures introduce crisp contrast, while the glass‑enclosed shower includes a built‑in bench and recessed shelves for toiletries. A circular wall light within a niche adds warmth and a crafted highlight. A secondary vanity—likely connected to a powder area—echoes the material language with a tall pill‑shaped mirror, white basin and grey joinery.

Landbay Condo demonstrates D’Marvel Scale’s commitment to space efficiency, concealed detail and purposeful calm. Through disciplined planning, adaptable joinery and a considered material language, the apartment supports contemporary living with clarity, comfort and quiet sophistication.
