A homeowner in Singapore has wowed many with how she renovated her shoebox flat.

From previously looking dark and cramp, the flat has now been transformed to look brighter and more spacious.

STOMPer Shoesize14 was amazed when he came across these pictures of how modern this shoebox flat looked after renovations.

Said the STOMPer:

"Magnificent.

"I think it was a pretty neat trick of her to use mirrors to give the illusion of a brighter space area.

"Despite sharing her flat with her mom, the flat does not look cramp at all.

"In fact, her utility room can even double up as a guest room, which means there might be 3 people in the flat at times!

"I guess it does help that the homeowner does seem quite neat, and hence regularly packs her home area to make it less messy.
