The 4-Bedroom Suite Type DP2 at Upperhouse @ Orchard Boulevard is a masterclass in architectural grace and modern refinement. Every space—whether private or social—is composed with quiet precision, balancing artistry, proportion, and comfort in perfect harmony. From the serene arrival at the Private Lift Lobby and Powder Room, to the inviting warmth of the Gourmet Kitchen Bar and thoughtfully reimagined Living. Dining Zones, the residence unfolds as a seamless journey through light, texture, and form.
Each transition within the home is meticulously choreographed. The Master Suite and Junior Master Suite stand as private sanctuaries, defined by their layered materiality, natural illumination, and tranquil palette. Complementing these are the dedicated bedrooms, ensuite bathrooms, and hallway sequences, which demonstrate an unwavering attention to detail—where even circulation spaces feel intentional and composed.
Natural materials—timber, marble, rattan, and brushed metal—set the tone for an atmosphere of enduring calm. At the same time, lighting is used not merely for illumination, but to sculpt ambience and depth. The result is a home that moves beyond function into artful living: a composition of tactile warmth, understated luxury, and thoughtful restraint.
This suite reflects Upperhouse’s design ethos: to create a residence where every room tells a story of quiet sophistication, and every moment at home feels like a timeless experience of serenity and architectural poise.
Private Lift Lobby & Powder Room
Upon arrival via the private lift, residents are welcomed into a refined antechamber that immediately conveys the home’s sense of calm sophistication. The private lift lobby is enveloped in warm timber panels and textured wall coverings, subtly illuminated by cove lighting that lends a soft, ambient glow. A full-height mirror visually enlarges the space, reflecting the sheen of the brushed metal lift doors and enhancing the overall depth and symmetry of the design.
A bespoke bench sits elegantly by the entrance, providing both function and form—a graceful spot to pause or prepare before stepping into the main living areas. Along the wall, architectural artwork in terracotta tones adds a cultured, urban rhythm that resonates with the Orchard Boulevard locale, complemented by slender vertical light fixtures that create a gallery-like atmosphere.
Adjacent to this serene entryway, the powder room continues the language of quiet luxury. Clad in vein-textured stone with subtle natural variations, it offers a tactile and tranquil counterpoint to the timber tones outside. The integrated stone vanity, accentuated by concealed lighting beneath the mirror, highlights impeccable craftsmanship and design continuity. The interplay of cool mineral surfaces and warm wood finishes achieves a timeless balance between modern restraint and inviting warmth.
Gourmet Kitchen Bar & Converted Living Spaces
Stepping into the residence, the gourmet kitchen bar takes centre stage as an architectural and social focal point. Crafted in deep burgundy marble with subtle veining, the sculptural island brings warmth and refinement to the open-plan layout. Its rounded edges and seamless design make it ideal for both culinary preparation and casual gatherings—whether it’s a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine.
Behind the island, glass-fronted shelving framed in dark timber and bronze creates a sophisticated display for glassware and collectables. Layered lighting—recessed and accent—casts a soft glow across the polished surfaces, enhancing the interplay of marble, wood, and mirrored reflections that define the space’s understated luxury. The adjoining dry kitchen continues this design narrative, offering ample storage and preparation space while maintaining visual continuity with the main entertaining area.
What was once planned as the formal dining area beside the gourmet bar has been reinterpreted in the showflat as an intimate living lounge—a serene transition between the culinary and social zones. The space unfolds in muted tones of beige and timber, anchored by a curved marble coffee table, bespoke upholstered sofa, and leather accent chairs, creating a tranquil yet refined setting for relaxed conversation.
Beyond, the main living area has been elegantly transformed into a double-volume dining space, where scale meets artistry. A round dining table with burgundy velvet chairs sits beneath a sculptural chandelier, while the full-height timber feature wall amplifies both warmth and vertical grandeur. The open sightline from this area toward the balcony and greenery beyond reinforces the fluidity between indoor sophistication and outdoor serenity.
The balcony, finished in timber decking and framed by sleek glass balustrades, extends the home’s living experience into nature. Thoughtful greenery, textured furnishings, and soft ambient lighting create an atmosphere of calm retreat—an elevated private sanctuary above the city.
Master Suite
Tucked to the left of the private lift lobby, the master suite of Upperhouse @ Orchard Boulevard reveals itself through a corridor designed as a prelude to calm. Light timber wall panels and subtle geometric detailing guide the eye inward, while a bespoke lattice feature wall with burgundy accents offers partial transparency to the adjacent living area—balancing intimacy with openness. The seamless flooring and recessed lighting create a sense of rhythm and flow, marking the transition from public sophistication to private repose.
Stepping inside, the master bedroom unfolds as a sanctuary of modern serenity and refined elegance. A timber-clad ceiling with cove lighting envelopes the room in a soft, ambient glow, while the feature wall behind the bed—dressed in textured fabric with linear metallic trims—anchors the space with quiet opulence. The palette of taupe, champagne, and midnight blue evokes both warmth and depth, enhanced by a layered rug and tailored furnishings that ground the composition in comfort and style.
Opposite the bed, a bold geometric artwork introduces a touch of modern vibrancy without disrupting the tranquil rhythm. A slim console table and accent chair below it form a composed vignette—ideal for reading, journaling, or moments of reflection. The full-height windows open to a private green view, filtered by sheer drapery that softens daylight and adds a sense of privacy.
Seamlessly integrated into the suite, the walk-in wardrobe extends this narrative of quiet luxury. Enclosed in sleek glass partitions with movable sliding doors, it combines warm timber shelving, champagne-toned finishes, and under-shelf illumination to evoke a boutique dressing experience. Hanging rails, drawers, and open shelves are thoughtfully designed for both function and display, while a vanity corner adds a personal touch of refinement. Woven baskets and minimal décor accents introduce tactile contrast, turning utility into artful design.
Master Bathroom
The master bathroom is a refined retreat of calm indulgence, where architecture, texture, and light converge to create a sanctuary of timeless sophistication.
Fully enveloped in grey-veined marble, the space radiates serenity through its seamless surfaces and soft tonal palette. At its centre, a freestanding bathtub anchors the room as a sculptural statement—its elegant curves paired with a floor-mounted brushed-metal tap and hand shower. This composition invites quiet moments of rest and reflection, complemented by ambient lighting that glows gently across the stone surfaces.
To one side, the walk-in shower enclosure continues the spa-like narrative with frameless glass panels, a rainfall shower, and built-in marble niches for daily essentials—balancing functionality with refined design. Opposite, the double vanity counter, carved from the same marble, integrates twin basins and sleek fixtures beneath an expansive mirror that enhances spatial depth. Discreet underlighting along the counter line adds a warm, ethereal dimension that elevates the mood from everyday routine to pure ritual.

Within, a palette of textured stone, matte beige cabinetry, and dark timber finishes creates a sense of calm balance. At the same time, the smooth surfaces and sleek, handle-free drawers reinforce the kitchen’s contemporary minimalism.
The gas hob and built-in oven form the functional heart of the kitchen, set against a full-height stone backsplash that exudes both durability and sophistication. A stainless-steel sink sits beneath a long horizontal window, allowing natural light to illuminate the workspace and frame a tranquil view of greenery. Subtle under-cabinet lighting enhances the stone textures, lending the space a warm, layered glow ideal for both day and night use.
Extending beyond the main cooking area, the service corridor carries forward the same language of quiet refinement.

Timber-textured finishes and fabric-lined walls infuse warmth, while open shelving with concealed LED lighting introduces both function and style. Accented by leather-toned insets and precision joinery, the space feels curated rather than confined—perfect for use as a storage room, home pantry, or compact study nook.

Adjacent to this, the yard area extends the home’s theme of quiet order and efficiency. A washer and dryer are neatly integrated into custom cabinetry, maintaining a clean, cohesive appearance alongside ample overhead storage for household essentials.
