Home Truly: Celebrating Singapore’s 59th National Day

As the city dresses up for the patriotic occasion in bursts of red and white, we take a trip down the memory lane with some of the most memorable projects using Cosentino in Singapore in the last couple of years celebrating the modern, functional and sensible design that this vibrant red dot is known for. 

Truly a celebration of progress, resilience and forward-thinking, we pay tribute to the many designers, architects and homeowners who have trusted our materials to turn intimate spaces into layered, characterful homes. From us at Cosentino we wish you a very happy National Day!

Bespoke Dining Table, Arkhilite, 2021

The perfect addition for your National Day celebrations, making gatherings with family and friends even more special this long weekend. Designed by Arkhilite, this bespoke dining table offers the perfect blend of functionality and elegance. As a part of Dekton’s Natural Collection, Kairo emulates what nature has to offer and Kairos’s white base is highlighted by its fine grey veining across the surface. The  material’s durability is also a significant advantage as it is resistant to scratches, stains, and heat, ensuring that the dining table remains pristine day in and day out.

House Filled With Light, Akihaus, 2022

Evoking bright light and airiness, this space designed by Akihaus gives off sparks of positive energy. Experience the added benefits, whether you know some extra clumsy people you can still host get-togethers for special events without worry, knowing your floor will maintain its long-lasting quality. A luxurious and sophisticated space to admire and enjoy, renowned for its stunning white surface with soothing grey veining, Dekton Aura resembles high-end natural marble. Akihaus employed the help of Dekton Aura for the countertops in addition to its use as flooring. This space’s design not only adds to its visual appeal, but with the help of Dekton, offers all the practical benefits you need making it a wise investment for any homeowner.

Urban Haven, Apex Studios, 2022

Cooking traditional Asian inspired dishes can warrant worry, especially with the strong flavours and ingredients that can stain. A kitchen island counter, wrapped in Dekton Entzo, transforms this space by Apex Studios into a striking focal point. Dekton Entzo’s exceptional durability, resistance to scratches, stains, and high temperatures, ensures that the kitchen island remains beautiful and functional despite heavy usage. Featuring a vibrant, intricate pattern inspired by the natural stone Calacatta Gold marble, the dynamic look of its gold veining is eye-catching and adds character and depth to the kitchen.

Dalvey Haus, Eco ID, 2023

With contemporary and majestic exteriors, Dalvey Haus has the aesthetic of a “modern urban gallery”, which adds to the almost wild opulence of its gardens. Standing out against the blue sky, this housing area designed by Eco ID hosts Dekton Danae as its facade. With Singapore’s tropical weather, heat and rain showers are something known all too well. This estate’s facades will retain its beauty and integrity for years to come. With its warm, beige tones and natural stone texture, this surface lends an air of sophistication and harmony with its surrounding environment. According to the professionals, its minimalist look translates into a timeless façade that pays great attention to detail and exudes calm and tropical exuberance. This material is not only visually appealing but also highly practical for exterior applications due to its resistance to UV rays, extreme weather conditions, and its low maintenance requirements.

Amaryllis Villa, Intheory Design, 2024

Celebrate National Day with this interior as it mirrors our nation's commitment to blending heritage and modernity, showcasing the spirit of unity and progress celebrated on National Day. With its ‘flowing sand in the desert’ look and varying shades of beige across its surface, Dekton Danae captures the essence of movement and makes it the perfect pairing with the wood tones of the bathroom. Designed in a Japandi style by Intheory Design, the seamless integration of past and present and a reflection of the beauty found in the blend of diverse influences of Singapore can be seen in the spaces of this home. The light striped structure of Dekton Marmorio with its filled pores gives an elegant, bright and lightweight look to any design.

As we look back on some local projects these past few years, we truly reflect on these endeavours that showcase the local talent and creativity of Singapore’s designers and builders. This reflects our nation’s commitment to innovation and sustainability and how each project tells a story of community and progress in our vibrant country. On this special day, we honour the contributions that continue to make Singapore a beacon of modern design and heartfelt tradition. Happy National Day to all!
