Their home is easy to manage and promotes a minimalistic lifestyle.

For most Singaporeans, the absence of a sofa or working television might be a foreign concept, but Glo and HL make it attractive.

 

While maintaining an abundance of space, the couple also incorporated exercise hoops, an open kitchen, and bean bags into their house design.

Couple is also an advocate of conscious living

The minimalistic house doubles as an office for the couple’s company – Thoughtworthyco – which vision matches the flat’s design,

A minimalistic approach to taking care of the body, mind & planet earth.

They also upload videos on YouTube regularly and have an e-store selling clothes for those big on the minimalistic movement.

Accumulating good habits with unique design of 3-room HDB flat

Instead of conventional office tables, Glo and HL have 2 ‘lower’ ones which allow them to sit on the floor for most of their working hours.

While this might seem uncomfortable, they do not get pins and needles from sitting in a cross-legged position all day.

In fact, this preference stems from the idea that sitting on the ground can make one stronger — and they have already developed 101 ways to do so.

Hope this minimalistic 3-room flat inspires others who have longed for a minimalistic flat
