a chat with...hey montgomery

Samantha Johnson, Creative Director at Hey Montgomery | Specialising in kids’ interior design, Hey Montgomery’s Creative Director Samantha Johnson shares how to put together a marvellous, safe and futureproof space for your children.

minimalist & adaptable

Without planning for a child-friendly home, Najwa’s flat was yet easily adapted when she had a baby, all thanks to a minimalist, flexible setup with few furnishings.

putting the kids first

Yun Yi and her husband scrapped the idea to turn the balcony into a home office and instead used the space to expand the living area, giving the kids more room to play.

moving closer

Seeking proximity to the kids’ grandparents and future primary school, Alfisyah and Fairuz took the leap and moved into a larger apartment in Hougang—and they are certainly loving the extra square footage.

hands-on home

Instead of engaging an interior designer, this couple took their home renovation into their own hands. Here’s how they planned a modular, flexible space for the day they’d eventually have their baby daughter.

they grow up too fast

With a toddler that’s checking off milestones day in and day out, Estee and her husband are constantly changing up their home design to adapt to their daughter’s growth. The open-concept, flexible layout they went for certainly helps!

Cosy & modular

While their home renovation implemented lots of aesthetically pleasing features and vintage touches, Nadiah and Ridzwan also planned ahead for a future with their baby girl, opting for a modular and highly functional home design.

serendipitous finds

First they found the perfect flat for their family of six, then the ideal buyer for their old place—and now they patiently wait for gorgeous secondhand furnishings to turn up on Carousell. Good things come to those who wait!

room to play

Prioritising plenty of space for their kids to run and play in the house, the Teos upgraded to an executive maisonette in a friendly, quiet neighbourhood.

going with the flow

When you have kids, your interiors are inevitably going to shift and change—this homeowner doesn’t let it bother her, working with change instead of against it.
