About us
Our JIA story
It began when a young, ambitious couple started building their first nest, and questioned whether interior designer markups were reasonable at all.
How it started
Almost 20 quotations, and not one we could trust
Like all first-time homeowners, we sourced quotations everywhere. We collected almost 20 of them, yet couldn’t shortlist a single one, with good reasons.
So we took our time designing the whole house with the help of a 3D CAD drafter, deciding on tiles, colours, lighting and layout. Then we requested quotes for each trade: flooring, plumbing, ceiling and so on.
With 3D and 2D drawings to show, talking to contractors had never been easier, and they told us it made their jobs easier too.

What we stand for
A revolution for interior design
Combining the ambition every young couple has with today’s digital tools, we rethought the renovation process from the start.
Design before deposit
You see your home in 2D and 3D before committing to any renovation contract.
Fixed, transparent fees
One fixed fee for our work. No percentage of your renovation, no surprise charges.
No supplier commissions
We take no cut from the suppliers we recommend, so our advice has no conflict of interest.
Your choice of builder
Manage it yourself, hire our project manager, or take the design to any ID firm.
Nothing beats doing your own home
The whole journey was an amazing experience. Nothing satisfies you more than building your own home, even if it doesn’t turn out perfect.
Our approach is a flow that helps homeowners do the same: improve the renovation experience, reduce risks and save unnecessary costs.

Questions about us
Who started JIAHOME?
JIAHOME was started by a local couple renovating their own first home. After collecting almost 20 quotations and finding none they could trust, they designed their home in 2D and 3D first, then sourced contractors for each trade themselves. JIAHOME is built around that approach, backed by 7 years of experience in commercial and residential interior design.
Is JIAHOME an interior design firm?
We are an interior design consultancy. We design your home first (mood boards, 2D layouts, up to 10 3D renders and a fill-in-the-blank quotation) for a fixed fee. You then choose who builds it: manage the renovation yourself, hire our project manager, or take the design to any interior design firm.
Do you take commission from the suppliers you recommend?
No. We take no cut from the suppliers we recommend, so our advice has no conflict of interest.
Where does JIAHOME work, and can we meet online?
JIAHOME is an interior design consultancy for homes in Singapore. We meet online or in person, whichever suits you.
