Price your home- The fee
RM3,565 per standard room and RM5,485 for the open kitchen, living and dining. Fixed in writing before we begin, never a percentage of your build, and paid in stages as the project progresses.
- A new condo
Two bedrooms and the open kitchen, living and dining come to RM12,615; three bedrooms, RM16,180. Bathrooms you keep as handed over aren’t counted.
- The building work
Done by contractors, from quotes we gather and compare with you. We design, draw and manage the project; we don’t build it.
- When to call
As soon as you have a date for your keys. The design and the management’s approval can then be ready at handover, and work can start once your defects are reported.
What should you plan first in a new Bangsar South condo?
Plan the storage and the management’s renovation rules before you choose a finish. In a Bangsar South tower, those two decide what the rest of the design can do.
Bangsar South is UOA’s 60-acre city on the old Kampung Kerinchi, renamed in 2012, with Pantai Sentral Park beside it. Nearly every home here is a condo or serviced residence, so this chapter walks through one, from the lift lobby in.
The lift lobby and the shoe cabinet. Shoes come off at your door, and there’s rarely a porch to take them. A shoe cabinet that breathes, a bench and a hook for the umbrella go in first.
The management’s rules. Before any work, the JMB or MC must approve your renovation plan in writing. It can ask for a deposit, set working hours and fix a completion date. We submit the plan and build the schedule around their answer.
The service lift. Carpentry, stone and a sofa all arrive by one lift, booked through the management. Measure it before you order anything long.
West glare and fixed glass. High up, you can’t shade a tower from outside, and some windows don’t open. Place the sofa and the desk away from low afternoon sun, then choose blinds that cut heat, not just glare.
The yard. It holds the washing machine, the drying and often the wok. Give it moisture-resistant cabinets and somewhere for the ironing board, so the open kitchen stays open.
Storage before furniture. In 500 to 1,000 sq ft, full-height built-ins do more than any sofa. Plan where suitcases, the vacuum and the Christmas or Raya boxes live.
The desk. If you work from home, say so on the first call. A study planned from the start, with power, data and a door, beats a corner of the dining table.
Defects first. Report defects to the developer in writing before any work touches them.
If yours is larger. At The Estate, four corner units share a floor, each with its own lift lobby, so the entrance can work like a house’s foyer.
If you’ll let it. Durable, neutral finishes matter more than statement pieces. Tell us on the call.
How much does it cost to renovate a home in Bangsar South?
For a new two-bedroom Bangsar South condo that keeps its developer floors and bathrooms, renovation and furniture come to about RM63k–101k at Essential finishes (Ikea, SSF Home, Harvey Norman), before the Sundays in Bed design fee.
Choose your kind of home, then set the rooms. The design fee is exact. The three ranges are what renovation and furniture typically cost at each finish level, until your contractors quote. It all runs in your browser and sends nothing.
2 bedrooms: 2 rooms at RM3,565, plus the open-plan living and dining at RM5,485. The foyer and utility yard are designed free.
Within each level, the low end is the essentials; the high end adds extras such as a feature wall, LED strips and a kitchen island.
What the three levels mean
Essential. Melamine carpentry, quartz tops, a simple plaster ceiling. Furniture from Ikea, SSF Home, Harvey Norman, Fortytwo.my, Heesz, Kinsen Home, Neo Livin, Ruma Home, Joy Studio and Mumu Living.

What Bangsar South renovations have actually cost, counted separately from Bangsar’s, is on our Bangsar renovation cost index. The ranges here come from typical costs for each part of the job. Estimates as of September 2026, not a quotation: your contractors’ quotes are the real number.

Design or styling? Interior design is for when something is being built: carpentry, lighting, a kitchen. Interior styling is for rooms that stay as they are; it’s the furniture, art and finishing layer. A new unit with good developer finishes may only need styling in some rooms.
The fee follows the rooms, not the floor area. Rooms you leave as they are aren’t counted, so you choose what we design.
With interior design, the foyer and utility yard are designed free when your home has a bedroom and a living and dining space. A site visit is RM200, waived if you go ahead with us. The fee is paid in stages as the project progresses.
Why not a percentage? When design is charged as a share of the build, the fee grows every time you choose the better stone. Ours is fixed per room, so it doesn’t.
What about “free design”? It’s usually paid for inside the build price. Ours is a separate, fixed fee, so you can take the same drawings to more than one contractor and compare their quotes like for like.
What happens between the first call and moving in?
We design, draw and manage the project; contractors build it. You choose them from quotes we gather and compare, and your rooms and fee are agreed in writing before work begins.

Which council, and what it needs. Bangsar South and Pantai are under Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL). Where your work needs a renovation permit, your licensed contractor obtains it. Since September 2022, minor work that doesn’t touch the structure can be applied for without an architect or engineer making the submission.
In a condo or serviced residence, the building comes first. The JMB or MC must approve your renovation in writing before work starts, and can set a deposit, working hours and a completion date.
Do you cover my part of Bangsar South?
Yes. Sundays in Bed designs homes in person across Kuala Lumpur and Selangor, and all of Bangsar South is inside that area. A site visit anywhere in it is RM200, waived if you go ahead with us.
New developments we’re following
These are the new homes completing around Bangsar South now and over the next year. If yours is one of them, we’ve already done the reading.
- Laurel ResidenceDate unconfirmedBangsar South, by UOA · 1,260 suites in two towers, 495 to 903 sq ft; developer’s target was Dec 2025
- River ParkDue 3Q 2026Kerinchi, by Malton · 1,332 two- and three-bedroom condos in three towers
- Riana Trees ResidencesDue early 2027Pantai Sentral Park, by IJM Land · 336 three-bedroom homes of 900 or 955 sq ft
Laurel’s smallest suites are under 500 sq ft; every home at Riana Trees has three bedrooms. In a 1+1, the study is the room that works hardest. In a three-bedroom, the smallest bedroom usually becomes the home office, so its power and data belong in the first drawings.

Bangsar South questions, answered
Is Bangsar South the same as Bangsar?
No. Bangsar South is the newer, mostly high-rise area around Kerinchi. Bangsar proper is Bangsar Baru, Bangsar Park and Bukit Bandaraya, with older landed homes and low-density towers. Each has its own page: interior design across Bangsar.
Do you design serviced residences as well as condos in Bangsar South?
Yes. Serviced residences and condos are both common here, and we price and design them the same way: one fee per room, agreed before we begin.
Should I start before I get my keys?
Yes, ideally five to six months before you want to move in, or as soon as you have a date for your keys. The design and the management’s approval can then be ready at handover, and work starts once your defects are reported.
Who approves renovation work in a Bangsar South condo?
Your building’s management body, the JMB or MC. It must approve in writing before work starts, and can set a deposit, working hours and a completion date. We submit your renovation plan, book the service lift for deliveries, and plan around those conditions. Our condo guide covers the rest.
Can a home office be part of the design, not an afterthought?
Yes. Tell us on the discovery call if you need a proper work-from-home setup, and we’ll plan the room around it from the start, with the power, data and lighting it needs.
Do you do the building work yourselves?
No. We design, draw and manage the project. The works are carried out by contractors, chosen from quotes we gather and compare with you, so the renovation cost is a separate number from our design fee.
