When I started planning my renovation, I knew I wanted a home that felt like me. I had a few ideas, but I wasn’t quite sure how to bring them together. That was where Jasmine and Qi Xuan really helped. Both of them brought their own ideas and perspectives to the process, while taking the time to understand what I wanted.
What I appreciated most was how open and collaborative the experience felt. Jasmine and Qi Xuan are easygoing and approachable, and I never felt pressured to accept a particular idea. They listened to what I had in mind, built on my ideas and suggested creative ways to develop them. Whenever I was unsure, they explained how the different options might look and work in the space, which helped me make decisions with greater confidence.
Their creativity really stood out to me. Their designs are fun and bold, but there is always thought and intention behind every choice. I eventually decided to go with Qi Xuan’s design direction, while Jasmine continued to offer valuable input and support throughout the journey. Together, they took what I had in mind and turned it into something far more interesting than I could have imagined on my own.
I also appreciated their patience throughout the process. There were times when I changed my mind or wanted to explore another option before making a decision. They listened, made the necessary adjustments and gave me the space to think things through. Their patience made it much easier for me to feel confident about the choices I eventually made.
Once the renovation began, I never felt that I had to micromanage the project. They took care of the details, kept me updated on the progress and responded promptly whenever I had a question or feedback. Even when issues arose, they addressed them quickly. Knowing that I could trust them to handle everything gave me real peace of mind.
Renovation can be stressful, but Jasmine and Qi Xuan made the experience surprisingly smooth and enjoyable. I would wholeheartedly recommend The Interplay to homeowners who want a home that feels personal and a little different from the usual. They are creative and bold, but also patient, responsive and trustworthy. Thank you Jasmine and Qi Xuan for creating a home that is not only beautiful, but also feels uniquely mine!
This is the 4th place that I have renovated. Qi Xuan was engaged as the ID and I must compliment her complete professionalism and extensive knowledge in the industry. Her designs to cater to our ideas and living concept were fantastic as usual. Her reputation definitely precedes her. But to see the transformation from idea to digital design to physical creation up to the most minute detail is ecstatically jaw-dropping. She is rare and is definitely the best ID I have ever worked with.
She is always responsive and no questions were left unanswered. Even when serious issues arise, she resolves them with little to no impact for us. She goes above and beyond her duties as an ID to help us in various ways when we requested. She is organized, reactive, has great supervision and all her deliverables were met on time. Most importantly, my involvement in the whole renovation process takes up the bare minimum amount of time for me so that it is not wasted unlike some IDs from other company from past experiences. I feel secure and satisfied as I watch her work progress. Didn't feel the need to oversee or manage.
Thank you Qi Xuan for your effort and The Interplay. There's no other ID I need for my next renovation. All the best!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Jasmine on the renovation of my new condo, and I couldn’t be happier and satisfied with the results. From our first consultation to the final handover, Jasmine was professional, attentive, and incredibly creative. She listened closely to my ideas, offered thoughtful suggestions, and brought a fresh, modern vision that completely transformed the space.
What really stood out was her attention to detail and commitment to quality — every corner of the condo reflects her dedication and design sensibility. She managed both the interior design and contracting work seamlessly, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free for me.
If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about their craft and goes the extra mile to deliver beautiful results, I highly recommend Jasmine. My condo now feels like a dream home, and it’s all thanks to her talent and hard work!
I worked with Brandon to renovate my resale HDB. He did a really awesome job, going above and beyond our expectations. The whole process went smoothly without any delays. We didn’t have to micro manage anything at all. Really recommend working with him if you want to have a nice looking house and a smooth process!

TLDR: Would definitely recommend this ID firm to everyone looking to renovate their place. Aside from the fantastic job they did, the most important is that they didn't run away with our hard-earned money.
The company is relatively new, but all three of the founder-partners have more than a decade’s experience in interior design. This really showed, as they were our eighth ID meeting and we decided to work with Jasmine and Brandon after two initial meetings.
The design process was relatively painless; we told them our likes and dislikes, and they would offer recommendations and proposed changes. What was important was that they could visualise what we wanted (for example, a bar table in the kitchen), something other IDs told us "no" to or tried to discourage us from having. We even named one of our IDs Mr No No because he kept saying No to everything we wanted. Jasmine and Brandon didn't completely discourage us, but instead offered opinions on how to ensure the space wouldn't feel cluttered.
They asked for our rather modest budget upfront, and I'm glad we didn't go over too much. Since we had to renovate the resale flat completely (it was a first-owner flat), we calculated windows and electricals separately to keep things clear. During the renovation itself, Brandon constantly visited the site and kept us updated on everything via WhatsApp with pictures. When we couldn’t make decisions (for example door knobs), he would offer a recommendation on which ones to choose.
During the handover, both Jasmine and Brandon were present to help us go through the final touch-ups. They were very meticulous in ensuring everything was in order before officially turning the place over to us.
Would I recommend them? A resounding yes, in a heartbeat.
I highly recommend Jasmine as an ID. She was very knowledgeable, calm, open minded and has a can do attitude. She offers good space planning suggestions and has impeccable colour sense and attention to detail. She encouraged me to ask as many questions as I needed and we collaborated well to make my apartment truly my own. She has solid relationships with her carpentry team and the various vendors for lighting, sanitary ware, aircon, electrician yet she’s not pushy about me taking on their services. My renovation was on time, on budget and so satisfying. I urge you to consider using her services.

I wanted to create my happy space that is dopamine, pastel, and colorful. I. came across The Interplay on their website and was at first hesitant to engage them because they are pretty new in the industry. However, I realise that most of the other players in the industry are also not familiar with the style I wanted so I decided to give The Interplay a shot.
I had a good time working with Qi Xuan who was attentive to my needs and my requests for adaptations. The process was very smooth and I escaped the horrors that often come with the interior design journey. Qi Xuan made multiple iterations of my room design and conscientiously ensure all my needs and requirements are met.
Now that I am sitting in my little happy space, I feel so happy and at ease. It is not only pretty but also functional, meeting my need for a space for make up, work, lighting, creative art gallery, extended table for art work and crafts and beautiful paintings.
I really feel so satisfied with the space and am thankful that because of Qi Xuan, I can literally shut off my brain during the process because there is someone to take care of everything. I think that really served the purpose of getting an interior designer. You leave the fretting and details to a professional.
I think it is worth giving The Interplay a try especially if you are looking for someone who is able to give you a novel design that scratches your need for stimulation, novelty and fun.
Jasmine is very easy to deal with and is able to cater to our needs. She is very good in managing the site while reno is ongoing too. Very pleasant experience with Interplay.
