Place To Relax is a small Singapore interior design firm, established in 2019, with a team of five and a single showroom. Its 16 recorded projects are weighted towards HDB flats, with 4-Room HDB the most common type (9 projects), followed by condominiums (4) and 5-Room HDB (3). Recorded project prices range from about S$37,000 to S$70,000, a mid-range budget band. New and resale projects are evenly split at 8 each, and Scandinavian is the most frequent style (8 of 16). The firm holds CaseTrust accreditation. It may suit HDB and condominium homeowners seeking a mid-budget, consistently styled renovation rather than highly bespoke or luxury work.

Strengths
Focused HDB track record Twelve of the 16 recorded projects are HDB flats across 4-Room and 5-Room types, which indicates practical familiarity with common Singapore flat layouts and renovation constraints.
Balanced new and resale experience The portfolio is evenly split between new (8) and resale (8) projects, showing experience with both fresh-handover and existing-home renovations.
Recognisable stylistic consistency Half of the recorded projects are Scandinavian, suggesting a clear and repeatable design direction that homeowners can assess quickly against their own taste.
Things to take note
Small team and single showroom With five team members and one showroom, capacity for multiple large projects at once may be limited, so homeowners may wish to confirm who their lead designer will be.
Limited profile depth The firm profile is sparse, with no awards listed, no category specified and only nine reviews, so the overall rating rests on a small sample.

“10/10 Experience. highly recommend!”

Steffany was a joy to work with throughout our entire reno journey! We went into this with 0 knowledge of reno and with busy work schedules so it was super helpful whenever we encountered anything at all that she would patiently explain it to us and also update us daily on whatever was happening at our house. She was super proactive in the reno and also checked in with us a lot on our appliances as a lot of decisions needed to be made at certain checkpoints. She also went above and beyond, as she told us to give her number as the point of contact for the delivery of everything so she could coordinate on our behalf which was really super convenient for us instead of going back and off. Even now, after moving in for 2 months, they’re consistently checking in on us and seeing if there’s any issues that they could help to address. Really appreciate how on the ball Steffany was, and Place to Relax in general! And how quick she was to address our concerns and fix any and all issues that inevitably came up during the reno journey. It has been such a pleasure working with place to relax to build our home and we felt very reassured throughout the process!

Design

Yes. they listened to our ideas and helped incorporate it together with recommending their professional style too! We loved it.

Workmanship

Yes, carpentry, vinyl was perfect, we were so happy with it even when it was only 50% done and it was even better when it was finished. we love it.

Customer Service

Yes. Very responsive and on the ball when addressing our concerns and questions. Super clear in explanations and reassuring throughout the process

Value for Money

Prices are going up so it is unavoidable and it is a business for them. Overall we are happy with the end product which was worth what we spent!

“Happy customer post renovation”

Been living at my new place for slightly more than a month now and loving it so much. Grateful to Steffany who helped me and my fiancé in this whole process. It is our first home and there is so much about renovation that we are unfamiliar with. Steff was there every step of the way, from budget discussion to ID proposal, timeline planning, purchase of accessories, etc. Post the reno, Steff also continued to respond to our adhoc queries and requests. Well done! ??

Design

Modern and practical design. I wanted a white and grey theme in the house and Steffany managed to deliver just that!

Workmanship

No issue with the paint at all - speaks volumes about quality and attention to detail as I understand some friends has issue with their carpentry being stained with paint.

Customer Service

Prompt service, even after post-reno! Could expect instant replies on WhatsApp and they would also call you back to explain over the phone.

Value for Money

With all the advice provided from pre-reno to post-reno, it’s definitely value for money. Their experience in this field makes it worthwhile.

“Live in Renovation, Family of 5”

As our family is expanding and coupled with the reluctance to move to a bigger place, the need to renovate our place becomes necessary to reorganise the space usage. Kenneth was our appointed interior designer. After various discussions, we decided to go ahead with a live-in renovation. The careful planning and the least disruption to our day to day live-in is meticulously managed by Kenneth and is highly commendable. Defects observed are resolved quickly and treated with high regards. Design ideals and quality of the outcome are amazing and our entire family are elated over the new space and look. We would like to thank and highly recommend Kenneth for your renovation needs.

“Our dream home comes true!”

Our ID team from Place to Relax includes Jocelyn, Joven, Jaz, and we engaged them through a friend’s recommendation. All of them were super patient during the design process at the start, very receptive to ideas and preferences shared by us and incorporate them into our overall design. They also gave very helpful advice on colour matching to ensure everything fits into our overall theme. They are quite young but very sincere and passionate and willing to go extra miles and travel extra journey e.g. travelling from east to west to our new place just to supervise the works and meet us to discuss matters even though it may just be a 30-min discussion. In terms of cost, it was quite reasonable - definitely not the cheapest in market but also not the highest. Overall, we are very pleased with the design and output. The output was almost 80% similar to their 3D which was good because we don’t like surprises and overpromises, and they managed to deliver what they designed. Even though there may be slight delays during renovation for certain works but they managed to catch-up on the backlogs and ensure everything was completed within the overall timeline and handover-ed on time as promised. They also continue to support and help rectify issues post handover, which is greatly appreciated by us. Super friendly and approachable even though they are all relatively young, a lot of fresh ideas and will definitely recommend this ID firm to our families and friends.

“Pleasant and efficient experience!”

Kenneth’s Long experience in this industry is evident from the way he carries out his work in a timely manner to his knowledge and answers to your questions since me and my husband were novice to renovation works! He’s open to the ideas we proposed and inputs additional ideas such that we can have a house where we can combine our ideals with practicality! Most importantly, he is very responsive and delivers what he pitched and my home looks exactly the same as the 3D images. We are very pleased with his services, and he goes beyond the sales to provide excellent after-sales services even after 6 months checking in to see if there’s any issues after the completion of our house Renovations. I’ve recommended my family member for their new place and will continue to refer others Cos you can be rest assured of a great job done. Highly recommended ID! ???

“Time to engage PTR”

We went to PTR after hearing good reviews from our friends who just completed their renovation. Our ID is Jaz and Joven. The thing that we appreciate the most is how prompt and responsible they are. We often hear about IDs promising the world during the planning stage and yet fail to deliver and giving all sorts of excuses thereafter. Jaz and Joven is the total opposite. They are not hesitant to voice their concern for any crazy ideas we might have and they will find ways to make our ideas work. They are very prompt in providing updates during the renovation as well which is one of the main reason we engaged PTR after hearing our friend’s experience. The outcome turns out 95% of what we envisioned (from 3D) which is awesome. There are no smooth renovation and there will be change of plans/ideas/tweaks. Designs can be inspired, changed, tweaked by any ID but having IDs like Joven and Jaz that take pride and accountability in their work is what homeowners like us really need to guide us along the renovation journey.

Design

The design matches what we have designed and planned. Overall it’s 95% match which is pretty awesome. We are happy about it

Workmanship

The workmanship is good. There is attention to details and rectification works were done on areas that are not up to satisfaction

Customer Service

Jaz and Joven is very prompt in all communications and addressing all concerns that we have without delay.

Value for Money

It is not the cheapest but we would say the overall cost is within average in the market. Looking at the final outcome, we would say it’s worth it.

“Trustworthy and excellent service”

Kenneth is always full of ideas and a very responsible ID, always contactable and completes the project on time. He is also very creative and has loads of suggestions on how he can design your place. Howevee, he doesn't enforce his ideas but shares them and checks if you are comfortable with them first. He also provides excellent after sales service! Even after 2 years since our reno was completed, he's still happy to lend a hand with the smallest flaw or issues for my place. Highly recommended!

Design

Design was close to what we want within our budget

Workmanship

Some flaws here and there which Kenneth was more than willing to help recitify. the issue.

Customer Service

looks into and advice on any issues I had even after handing over the flat. àa

Value for Money

Feels his sources for materials could have been slightly more expensive.

“My Newly Renovated Kitchen”

I am sitting in my newly renovated kitchen that Place To Relax has put together. Never expected to have so many decisions to make and didnt know so much work is involved backend. So I am grateful to have my ID Kenneth Ng's expertise and rich experience to tap on. He listens carefully before giving sound advices and he also learn to respect decisions. He is always a phone call or text message away...readily available. He takes good control of his workers to ensure their work is up to standard and completed in time. I now have a spacious kitchen that is an envy to many of my friends. The family now loves to hang around the kitchen unlike before. Try Place To Relax for your renovation needs. Clara Tan - a pleased owner
