In a world where Singaporeans rank among the most sleep-deprived globally, standing third out of 43 cities in a recent report—the quest for restorative sleep has never been more critical.

To address this pressing insight, the Studio embarked on a self-commissioned project set within a petite 10.64 square meters, transcending resource constraints to craft an indulgent resting quarters. The design direction centers on geometric purity, with interior elements meticulously aligned along perpendicular axes.

At the heart of this intimate space, a pair of elevated wardrobes frames the bed, which rests on a raised platform. Beneath, a minimalist garden of desert plants and small boulders introduces a touch of nature’s tranquility. A continuous Douglas fir ledge, seamlessly integrated with Himalayan green onyx, spans across the room, expressing a refined visual transition.

The bed is cocooned in intricate details, illuminated with subtle lamps by Le Corbusier, set against a backdrop of a delicately fluted light onyx. On the opposite, a Venetian plastered artwork juxtaposes with a stone-textured wall, evoking a serene proximity to nature and reflecting the wabi-sabi ethos.

Resting Rights stand as a testament to the pursuit of serene rejuvenation and the fundamental rights to a restful sleep.
