Not sure how to get started? Then check out these real-life ideas from Singapore homes for some inspiration on how to transform your service yard into a useful, clutter-free space.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Create More Prep Space<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13848\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-1.jpg\" alt=\"Service Yard Prep Space\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-1.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-1-940x627.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-1-440x294.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Considering how tight service yards typically are, it\u2019s natural to think that installing a counter in the area would be well\u2026 counterproductive. But on the contrary, having an additional surface in your service yard is likely to make it more versatile and useful.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t believe us? Just take a look at this Punggol apartment. Here, a sturdy countertop and built-in shelves for condiment bottles allow the service yard to be used as a food preparation area. And this certainly helps seeing how that one side of the kitchen is entirely taken up by storage solutions.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13849\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13849\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13849\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-2.jpg\" alt=\"Kitchen HDB Service Yard\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-2.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-2-940x627.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-2-440x294.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13849\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Credits: Interior Designer &#8211; KDOT Associates)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Not a fan of fixtures? You can also create an extended workstation by bridging gaps between the kitchen and service yard with useful furniture.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13850\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13850\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13850\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/800-width.jpg\" alt=\"Service Yard Washing Machine\" width=\"720\" height=\"1080\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13850\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Credits: Interior Designer &#8211; DB Studio)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>What the owners of this Choa Chu Kang apartment have done is to place a table of similar height between the kitchen counter and the washing machine.

Talk about killing two birds with one stone, huh?<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"-2-maximise-vertical-space-\"><strong>2.

For instance, if you have a blank wall or two in the back, consider using them to get your home organised by introducing a variety of useful storage fixtures, such as bins, shelves and baskets.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13852\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13852\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13852\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-3.jpg\" alt=\"Service Yard Washer Dryer\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-3.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-3-940x627.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-3-440x294.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13852\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Credits: Interior Designer &#8211; DB Studio)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Likewise, opting for a stackable washer-dryer unit for your service yard can save you plenty of room and even fill up a dead corner.<\/p>\n<p>But beware! Do take note that full-sized versions of both appliances are fairly bulky, and this means they will chew up some walkway space (albeit less) despite being stacked one on top of the other. In any case, make sure to double-check the measurements if you intend to adopt this space-saving solution for your home.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13853\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13853\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/800-width-2.jpg\" alt=\"Service Yard Shelves\" width=\"720\" height=\"1080\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13853\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Credits: Interior Designer &#8211; Starry Homestead)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The same applies for shelves as they are great for keeping frequently used objects within reach. And chances are, you\u2019ll find that to be the case for service yards with plenty of vertical space to spare.<\/p>\n<p>But what about using them as partitions? While you may not have thought of such an idea, the designers of this Telok Blangah apartment most certainly did. Here, a see-through storage shelf for various kitchen accessories serves as a physical divider, yet allows natural light to pass through freely and brighten up the inside.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"-3-make-sure-things-flow-\"><strong>3. Make Sure Things Flow<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Considering their relative distance to each other in HDB apartments, treating your home\u2019s service yard as an extension of the kitchen almost seems like the natural thing to do. And even if you aren&#8217;t keen on knocking down the walls, it\u2019s still possible to make both spaces look as though they are one and the same.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13854\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13854\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13854\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-4.jpg\" alt=\"Service Yard Tile Design\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-4.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-4-940x627.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-4-440x294.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13854\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Credits: Interior Designer &#8211; The Scientist)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In this Marine Drive home, walls of graphic tiles extend from the kitchen into the adjacent service yard to create a consistent visual motif, whereas a built-in microwave nook and an island allow the space to double as a cosy breakfast corner.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13856\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13856\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13856\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-5.jpg\" alt=\"Service Yard Kitchen\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-5.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-5-940x627.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/standard-5-440x294.jpg 440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13856\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(Credits: Interior Designer &#8211; DB Studio)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Similarly, combining your kitchen and service yard with a galley-style layout creates better flow between both spaces.<\/p>\n<p>Just think about it: letting your kitchen take over the yard means you\u2019ll be getting a more spacious cooking space, and you\u2019ll no longer have to struggle with two separate zones that are too small for your needs. Moreover, keeping everything tucked against the walls (or underneath the countertop like this washing machine) with a galley-style layout means you\u2019ll be getting additional walkway space and an overall neater interior.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"-4-exercise-your-green-fingers-\"><strong>4.
