Shah Alam, the lovely state capital of Selangor, is home to some of the most beautiful and brilliantly designed abodes.

So, it’s no wonder that ‘beautiful-brilliant’ (indah bestari) also happens to be the city motto! Just check out these six superbly designed homes in Shah Alam:
1) Cahaya Alam, Shah Alam
Project by Torch Empire
The fresh, crisp, and incredibly inviting ambience in this landed home is a contemporary décor dream!
It’s also the result of clever design that combines a warm colour scheme, impeccable layout planning, and expertly even lighting.
And even as the furniture range may appear bare-bones on its own to the untrained eye, these carefully selected pieces reflect a warm and homely feel as part of the bigger picture.
In addition, the overall décor mirrors the spaciousness of a much larger home and its use of mixed materials, namely tile and wood offer cosiness, even at 2,400 sq ft.
2) U12, Shah Alam
Project by Movent
The artistic flair in this home is almost stealthy, but a closer look reveals a load of creative character!
Opting out of typical tile floors gives the space an instantly warm and welcoming air that’s punctuated by natural lighting and warm, slightly incandescent artificial lighting.
Artsy accent walls (e.g. red brick and texture-painted walls) add seamless edge and groove that breathes life into the overall décor.
3) Denai Alam, Shah Alam
Project by Meridian Interior Design
Bucking the trend of minimalist décor, this home fearlessly embraces a more hygge (a Danish word for a feeling or moment that’s cosy, charming or special) approach, with comforting pieces and accents that meticulously fill the space.
The colour scheme is light-balanced, with deeper neutral shades to contrast and soothingly confine the space.
The use of darker wood floors in the bedroom (and other minor spaces) add to its restful charm, whereas glossy beige tiles reflect light and uplifts the energy in the living room and common areas.
The furniture selection in the home appears to be a combination of modern pieces, which work perfectly to give structure to the overall décor.
4) Ficus Peak, Shah Alam
Project by Box Design Studio Sdn Bhd
This 5,000 sq ft landed home is a testament to the necessity of modern décor in such expansive spaces.
The décor style perfectly permeates the space with darker natural tones, hulking but straight-cut furniture, and a methodically-clean layout.
The styling of the home results in an upscale, sophisticated environment that’s a perfectly calming respite from one of those crazy-busy days in the city!
5) Kota Kemuning, Shah Alam
Projects by A Moxie Associates Sdn Bhd
This home reflects traditional bliss and the stylish nostalgia of beautiful Peranakan heritage with its décor.
With exquisite eclectic tones (e.g. baby blue, sunflower yellow, dusky aquamarine, and brilliant turquoise), old-school Chinese tiling, and traditional accent pieces; the space is vibrantly and uniquely transformed.
Still, present-day touches casually float into the décor with contemporary cabinetry, trendy furniture pieces, wood floors, and even a premium, bathtub-fitted modern bathroom!
6) Twentyfive.7 Premio, Shah Alam
Projects by ZI Atelier Sdn Bhd
With modern French décor elements caressing this six-bedroom, 3,600 sq ft landed home; the relatively large space feels cosy, comfy, and delicately luxurious.
The space is richly filled with fluffy and snug living room/lounge furniture, plush soft furnishings (check out the heavy drapery and luxury carpeting!), and high-end, custom built-in pieces.
The décor also almost verges on maximalist philosophy with plenty of eclectic pieces, displays, and artsy lighting fixtures.
