We chose not to alter the original HDB gate or door, aiming for a discreet touch that would yield a delightful surprise when you take a peek inside. We set up a small postbox that we picked up during our time in Bangkok, exclusively intended for small mail items (and junk flyers). During our trip to IKEA, we came across a simple doormat and decided we wanted one customized with our house name. So, we took matters into our own hands and DIY-painted our logo onto it. 
After a while, we made the decision to purchase storage that could serve the dual purpose of concealing our gardening supplies and providing a comfortable seating option for friends to put on their shoes with ease. As you pass through the main door, a round window greets you—a canvas we often decorate with floral arrangements, extending a warm welcome to the space. Did you know: This wall functions as a false partition, strategically installed to enhance privacy between the main door and the living area. Beyond its functional aspect, it sets a separation mood that transitions you from the outdoor to the indoor environment.
