Just want to share my renovation experience and say a big thank you to my ID, Zen! My home is a 31 years old HDB maisonette, and honestly I was very careful this time because I had a very bad experience with my previous ID for my previous home so I went to meet and vet quite a few designers before deciding to go with Zen and really no regrets at all! Zen’s pricing is reasonable and transparent, which made me feel very安心 from the start. He’s very humble, steady, and knowledgeable, you can tell he really knows his stuff probably from his years of experience. Now already 2 years since renovation, on/off I still contact zen for some recommendations and am amazed that he still replies me always. All the fittings are still in very good condition as well which requires no headache nor return. People always say renovation very stressful, but with Zen, the whole process was actually quite smooth and pleasant even though my house is big and it is more challenging for excellence. What I appreciate most is that I didn’t need to worry much. Every time I did a surprise check, things were properly managed and under control. End result and outcomes turned out really nice ! Till today, family and friends who come over always compliment the house. I will definitely look for Zen again for my future home renovations. Thank you for transforming my home!! Keep up the great work, Zen! 👏✨

We would like to specially commend our interior designer, Wennis Lim. After shortlisting three interior designers, we decided to go with Wennis because of her easy-going personality, strong expertise in renovation works (she is a senior in her field with 4–5 years of experience), and her reasonable price point. Throughout the renovation journey, she consistently demonstrated deep knowledge of the field, offering valuable advice on areas we would otherwise not have known much about—such as glass works, carpentry, and water piping. Wennis is also extremely hardworking and hands-on. She personally goes down to the site to oversee major works, ensuring everything runs smoothly, and regularly provides us with photo updates on the progress. As a senior designer, she sometimes brings along her junior colleague to guide and mentor them, which we felt reflected her professionalism and leadership. Design-wise, we already had a clear idea of what we wanted, and communicating this to Wennis was very easy. In fact, the final outcome exceeded our expectations (see photos below for reference). We are truly grateful for her service and dedication. We have since recommended Wennis to our friends and family who are planning to renovate, and would definitely encourage others to give her a try as well.

As first-time homeowners, we were honestly quite nervous about the renovation process. We’re very grateful that we had the opportunity to work with Josh and Wennis on our home. Wennis, as the team leader, provided overall direction and oversight, and we appreciate the structure and coordination she brought to the project. At the same time, we especially want to highlight Josh, who was our main point of contact throughout the journey. Josh was incredibly patient, attentive, and reassuring from start to finish. Being our first renovation, we had many questions and uncertainties, but he never made us feel rushed or pressured. He took the time to understand our lifestyle, preferences, and even small concerns, and translated them into practical design solutions. What truly stood out was Josh’s strong sense of responsibility and ownership. He was highly responsive, proactive in solving problems, and always kept us updated. Whenever unexpected issues arose (as they naturally do during renovation), he handled them calmly and professionally, which gave us tremendous peace of mind. Beyond project management, Josh has a great design sense — balancing aesthetics with functionality. He guided us through countless decisions on layout, materials, and finishes with honest advice, always prioritizing what worked best for us rather than upselling unnecessary additions. Renovation can be stressful, especially for first-timers like us, but Josh made the process feel smooth and support. We are very happy with the final outcome and deeply thankful for the dedication and effort he put into our space. We would confidently recommend Josh and Wennis to anyone looking for a responsible and genuinely committed interior designer.

I had a great experience working with Yanling as our ID for our home renovation. From the beginning, she was attentive, patient and genuinely understanding our needs and design preferences. Yanling guided us through every step of the process with professionalism, from design planning to material selection and execution. Her attention to detail and problem-solving mindset gave me great confidence throughout the renovation. I am thankful for Yanling’s dedication and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, creative and trustworthy ID.

We engaged The Design Scientists for our home renovation and are extremely satisfied with the results. The project was completed right on schedule without any delays, and the quality of the workmanship and finishing exceeded our expectations. Throughout the process, the designer - Kent who we had been working in the past provided valuable advice and creative opinions that enhanced the original design while staying true to our vision. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering a top-quality outcome really stood out. We are very happy with the final result and would strongly recommend The Design Scientists to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled interior designer especially Kent.
