Featured in the August 2020 cover story of Tatler Homes Singapore, the Stiletto House designed by EHKA Studio is, as its namesake suggests, sexy, sinuous and stylish inside and out
The Stiletto House is playfully named after the slim, trumpet-shaped exterior columns rising from its porch and fanning into circular canopies—structures that look just like the tall heel of its namesake shoe. This fluid architectural language is echoed by the contouring steps at the car porch and the winding floor plates, which altogether make the house appear like a modern sculpture.
Inside, walls flow and circular columns exude grandeur, especially in the double-storey living and dining area. A visit is akin to a museum tour with a learned guide. The owner, retired businessman Robin Yeo, patiently narrates the stories behind the curated melange of iconic and antique pieces in his home—though the house itself, designed by EHKA Studio, is the most significant work of art.
