Nestled in the residential heartland of Boon Keng, this three-room flat is a testament to Wong's lifelong passion for design.

The dining area features a Driade Frate Table, designed by Enzo Mari, and a Kartell La Marie Chair, a transparent marvel. The bedroom boasts a Zanotta Milano bed and an E15 ST04 Backenzahn solid oak stool, showcasing versatility and functionality. Wong's collection, valued at around S$40,000 to S$50,000, is a testament to his instincts and a celebration of design, where memories are made and life and work intertwine seamlessly.
