When a Singapore residence earns a place among the world’s most distinguished architectural and design works, it becomes more than just a home—it becomes a cultural marker for how luxury living in Singapore continues to evolve. Moongate House I has just been honoured with the International Architecture Award 2025 under the Private Homes category, a prestigious accolade presented by The Chicago Athenaeum and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies. As one of the foremost awards celebrating exemplary building, landscape architecture, and urbanism worldwide, the recognition places this home on the world map while highlighting the strength of Singapore’s design community.

Moongate House I, designed by Chang Architects, takes inspiration from the poetry of nature and the quiet spirituality of crafted spaces. Its curved forms, internal courtyards, and immersive garden connections create a home that feels both sculptural and deeply liveable. There is a sense of calm throughout the residence, a gentle choreography of light, landscape, texture and shadow that reflects the best of tropical modernism. Every architectural gesture invites the outdoors inward, allowing the homeowners to experience a sanctuary shaped by climate, craft, and thoughtful detail.

Designworx Interior Consultant was privileged to be part of this remarkable journey, creating interiors that echo the home’s architectural philosophy. Rather than imposing decorative excess, the design approach embraced discreet luxury—timeless materials, bespoke joinery, and subtle tonal palettes that enhance the spatial poetry envisioned by the architects. Luxury interior design in Singapore has always been at its finest when it balances refinement with restraint, and Moongate House I demonstrates how elegance emerges when every space is allowed to breathe. From the tactile warmth of natural finishes to the precision of custom-built elements, the interiors were conceived to blend effortlessly with the architecture while elevating the everyday experience of the homeowners.

What makes this project especially meaningful is the collaborative spirit behind it. The architectural team, interior designers, engineers, landscape specialists and photographers each contributed to shaping a home that feels holistic and complete. The award serves as recognition not only of design excellence but also of the power of interdisciplinary partnership—a value that Designworx continues to uphold in every luxury home and GCB-level project we undertake.

As Singapore’s design landscape matures, homes like Moongate House I demonstrate how world-class architecture and interior design can coexist with a sensitivity to craft, heritage and nature. International recognition of a Singapore private home reinforces the city’s position as a leader in refined living, where thoughtful design is appreciated by discerning homeowners, multi-generational families, and global clients seeking spaces that are both beautiful and meaningful.

For Designworx, being part of an award-winning home like this is deeply inspiring. It fuels our commitment to shaping bespoke, timeless interiors for families of distinction—homes that feel personal, luxurious and grounded in the quiet confidence that defines contemporary Singapore design.
