BRUT STUDIO
Brutally clean
Residential and commercial spaces in Singapore — designed and built by the same team, with the carpentry made in house.
The studio
A space,
crafted better
We are a Singapore interior design studio working across residential and commercial spaces. Formerly Black Chamfers — same team, new name.
Minimal, not cold: clean lines, matte finishes, natural wood in the joinery, and warm lighting so oak never reads grey. Function comes before form — a Murphy bed that gives a room back through the day, two bedrooms opened into one jumbo master.
Carpentry is in house, which is the whole point: the team that draws the joinery is the team that makes it.

Walk through
Step inside
Three of our rooms — Bukit Batok, Reflections and The Alchemy Tea — opened out into a full turn, so you can look around them the way you would standing inside.
Step inside Jurong West and move room to room the way a viewing works — through the doorways, with the plan tracking where you are standing.
Visualisation. The wall in the original photo is the real finished room; the rest is filled in to match.

Working with Joelene has been one of the easiest renovation experiences I’ve ever had. She is exceptionally detailed, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. I simply shared my ideas and overall vision, and she translated them perfectly into the final outcome.
