Feeling the National Day buzz already?

From street rehearsals to your social media scroll, the countdown to Singapore’s 60th birthday is officially on! As we gear up to celebrate this big milestone, I wanted to share my way of honouring our nation's spirit in the form of interior design — refined, personal, and proudly local.

Locally Inspired Art Pieces

Weaving local heritage into every design detail

Singapore’s heritage is my design inspiration—from shophouses to Peranakan tiles, and even the vibrant hawker culture. At Loren Ng Designs, I bring these local touches to life through bespoke art pieces that make every space personal—and proudly Singaporean.

Design Insight: Add a touch of heritage with CNC-cut panels featuring elegant

Batik motifs—perfect for doors, wall features, and even ceiling panels.

Curious how I brought this to life in our own studio? Read more about how I used CNC panels on my office ceiling here.

Preserving the Past with a Modern Twist

I don’t just draw inspiration from Singapore’s heritage—I bring it into my work, hands-on. Peranakan tiles have always captivated me with their intricate beauty and the stories they carry. Their charm deserves to be seen in unexpected places—on stair risers, tabletops, or anywhere a touch of heritage can shine timelessly.

Keeping Our Shophouse Legacy Alive

Designing the Future, Honoring the Past

I can never get enough of Singapore’s iconic shophouses—their charm, history, and beauty are a legacy I’m grateful we still preserve. At Loren Ng Designs, I’ve had the privilege of restoring and renovating several of these heritage gems. It’s a meaningful way for me to contribute to our cultural story—and a part of my work I take great pride in as a Singaporean.

As Singapore celebrates its independence, it’s the perfect time to reflect on what makes a space feel like home. From heritage tiles to local art, design connects us to our roots while shaping the future.

At Loren Ng Designs, I see design as storytelling—and this National Day, I invite you to celebrate our culture, honour the past, and design boldly for what’s ahead.
