The fledgling design firm is headed by Founder and Creative Director Idris Akbar, a veteran designer with almost 20 years of experience. Idris has created a sprawling two storey, 1700 square foot showroom. It is the embodiment of the age old adage “ form must follow function”.
When queried about the inspiration for his designs, Idris stated “Craft by 3 is about the celebration of good design - and making everyday living more interesting. We see Interiors as an extension of one's personality and hope to express that through the work we do.”
Conveniently located at Proxima @ Gambas, Sembawang, the sprawling design studio remains an an homage to the beauty of subtlety. Pairing understated furniture with muted textures, and subdued tones on walls and flooring, Idris attempted to recreate the essence of tranquility. Meandering through the showroom, one cannot help but feel at ease.
Undoubtedly, the highlight of the space was a peculiar walk in wardrobe-esque Korean Concept Pole System wardrobe. Designed to accommodate a larger than average wardrobe space, while conserving precious square footage, the wardrobe was built in modules with poles, shelves drawers and hanging rods. These elements are customisable depending on personal taste and still manage to present a versatile, sleek and stylish exterior.
