Interior designer at The Atera
A new home, close to the LRT.
It arrives semi-furnished. The rest is yours.
Thoughtfully designed around the way you live, and what you’d like to spend.
Before your Atera keys arrive, what would you like this home to be for you?
The Atera’s two towers hold compact homes beside the LRT, each handed over semi-furnished, with lights, fans and air-conditioning run from one app.
Together we’ll sort out what to keep, then plan the storage, the open kitchen and which walls can take heavy pieces.
We’re Sundays in Bed, a Kuala Lumpur studio that designs and looks after homes. Both Atera towers are still being built, so we haven’t designed a home here yet. We design Atera homes for a fee per room, agreed in writing before we begin.
The Atera is Paramount Property’s pair of serviced-apartment towers in Section 14, Petaling Jaya, on leasehold land. A 400 m covered walkway leads to Asia Jaya station on the LRT Kelana Jaya Line.
- Tower 1Due 2027756 homes
- Tower 2Due 2028876 homes
Across both towers, The Atera’s 1,632 homes measure 559 to 1,420 sq ft built-up; the 775 sq ft two-bedroom outnumbers every other plan.
- 559 sq ftOne bedroom, in Tower 1 only, with its own car park
- 775 sq ftTwo bedrooms, two bathrooms; the most common plan
- 1,022 sq ftThree bedrooms, with a balcony off the living room
- 1,420 sq ftA dual key: three bedrooms, plus a fourth with its own front door
The layout and space
Each plan runs the kitchen straight into the sitting area, with a small yard close by for the washer. In the two-bedrooms, one L-shaped space is your entrance, cooking corner, dining spot and lounge all at once, and we’ll help you give each job its own place.
Bedrooms arrive with laminate floors and the other rooms tiled, all new and usually worth keeping. Some two- and three-bedroom walls are drywall, which affects where heavy pieces can hang, so we’ll check before you buy a wall-hung TV.
Before you pick a single finish, how will you use your new home?
We start with what the developer has already half decided for you: drywall, an open kitchen, an app and a furnishing package.
Once those are settled, the look tends to follow.
If you plan a wall-hung TV or a tall wardrobe
Drywall partitions appear in the specification for the two- and three-bedroom types. A wall-hung TV, floating shelves or a tall wardrobe needs timber or metal backing behind the board, so each heavy fixing goes on our drawings before ordering.
If you cook in the living room
Every Atera plan we have read opens its kitchen to the lounge, its walls tiled to 1.5 m. Where a wok is in daily use, a stronger cooker hood or a glass screen deserves the money before cabinet fronts do.
If you like everything on your phone
Lights, fans, air-conditioning and switches are linked to a single mobile app, with a digital lock at the door. Any new fitting should join that system, so we consult its supplier before we specify one.
If you’ll live without a balcony
The brochure’s plan has none, so laundry dries in the yard and storage stays indoors. A shoe console at the entrance and a dining table you can work at will often do more for your day than another cupboard.
If the package suits you
The tiles, the laminate bedrooms and the bathrooms tiled floor to ceiling all arrive new. We plan to keep them, along with any furnishing you like, and put the budget where the package falls short.
What would a designer’s fee come to for your home at The Atera?
For a 775 sq ft two-bedroom at The Atera, the Sundays in Bed design fee is estimated at RM12,615–16,180; for a 1,022 sq ft three-bedroom, RM16,180–19,745.
Your final fee depends on the rooms you choose, and is agreed in writing before we begin.
- Each room we design
- RM3,565
- Living and dining
- RM5,485
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 two levels mean
Curated. Melamine or laminate carpentry, quartz or sintered stone tops, the existing ceiling kept or a new plaster ceiling. Furniture from Commune, Cellini, Fella Design, Dezign District, Poet Living, Big Brain, Gudang, Crown Livin and Dadswood.
Bespoke. Detailed joinery, sintered stone tops, a plaster ceiling with detailing. Furniture from Space Furniture, Tekni, BoConcept, King Living, Ambient Living, Stanzo, Forest Furniture, Roche Bobois, XTRA, Urban Edge, Molteni&C, Nostaloft, Flexform, Janine and Chesters Collection.
How the fee works
You’ll have that sum on paper before we start, and you settle it in stages. It follows the rooms, so upgrading Paramount’s tiles to stone changes the contractor’s total and leaves our fee as it was.
With our fee and Curated finishes (Commune, Cellini, Poet Living), a two-bedroom here comes to about RM135k–242k in all.
If you want the money to go furthest. In an Atera home, that’s storage, the kitchen wall and lighting the app can control, and the brand-new tiles can stay. Choose your plan below and tick only the rooms you’d like drawn; until contractors price them, all figures stay estimates.
| Home | Our fee | Curated | Bespoke |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2-bed 775 sq ft | RM12,615–16,180 | RM122k–226k | RM264k–558k |
| 1-bed 559 sq ft | RM9,050–12,615 | RM103k–193k | RM228k–485k |
| 3-bed 1,022 sq ft | RM16,180–19,745 | RM141k–260k | RM300k–631k |
| Dual key 1,420 sq ft | RM19,745–26,875 | RM161k–294k | RM336k–705k |
The lower figure is a typical layout: your sitting and dining space with its open kitchen, and each bedroom. The higher one allows for one more room you might like designed, such as the master bathroom, or two in the 1,420 sq ft dual key.
Treat these October 2026 guides as guides: only contractors issue quotations.
How these figures are worked out
Curated prices furniture from Commune, Cellini or Poet Living; Bespoke, from Space Furniture, BoConcept or Molteni&C. Each Atera home is brand new, so its bathrooms are assumed kept.
Behind each range sit air-conditioners, a washer-dryer, hob and hood, kitchen cabinets and wardrobes. Paramount hasn’t itemised its semi-furnished package publicly, so check your sale agreement’s schedule: anything it already supplies comes off.
Furnishing to let?
The developer pitches its dual key at upgraders and investors. A lighter, hard-wearing fit-out at our Essential level, quicker to finish and easy to keep tenant-ready, is one possibility, with furniture from Ikea, SSF Home and Harvey Norman. The design fee is the same at every level.

If you’ve bought a one-bedroom for tenants, or a dual key for three generations, we hear what you’d like to spend before drawing a line, and design within it.
With your keys still a year or two away, when shall we begin?
Nobody holds keys yet: Tower 1 is due in November 2027, Tower 2 in October 2028.
When 756 Tower 1 homes get keys in the same season, lifts and good contractors book up fast, so we can finish your design before handover. We draw and manage the work, and the building is done by contractors of your choosing, once we’ve collected their quotes and compared them side by side with you.
- The discovery call FreeTower 1 or Tower 2, which plan, who will live there or rent it, what your sale agreement’s schedule lists, and roughly what you want to spend.
- The site visit RM200, waived if you go ahead with usAfter handover, we take measurements room by room, locate each drywall partition, test the app-linked points and judge which package items deserve a place.
- The scope, then the designOur fee, your budget and the chosen rooms are written down before anything else. Layouts, lighting and materials follow, with drywall fixings marked and the open kitchen shaped around your cooking.
- Drawings and quotesA single drawing set that every contractor prices, so their numbers line up properly. We walk you through each quote, and the choice of builder stays with you.
- On site, then moving inLift and delivery slots get booked with management, each stage is checked against our drawings, and finally the rooms are styled, whether for moving in or for a first tenant.
Paramount, a management office not yet formed, MBPJ and a corridor of new neighbours each get a say in an Atera fit-out. Following who needs what, and by when, falls to us, with a clear next step shared at each stage. How we work, step by step
Buying off plan?
On handover day, inspect every room and send Paramount a written defects list before any contractor begins. Your design can be drawn months ahead, using the floor plan attached to your sale agreement.
MBPJ approved these towers’ building plans; a licensed contractor normally obtains your renovation permit. Management usually signs off the works as well. Its deposit, permitted hours and lift booking rules are still unpublished, so we request them early.
Who will you be coming home to?
We start with whoever lives in it.
One 775 sq ft plan repeats up both towers, yet a couple both working from home asks something quite different of it than a tenant on a two-year lease.
So our first questions are about your week: who cooks, who answers emails at the dining table, whether a parent might move into the dual key’s separate room. We design from those answers, and the finishes come after.
What arrives with your Atera home
- KeepFloors, bathroomsTiled living, dining and kitchen; laminate bedrooms; bathroom walls tiled up to the ceiling
- AdaptKitchen, smart homeA kitchen open to the lounge, tiled to 1.5 m; one app for lights, fans and air-conditioning
- AddFixings, storageDrywall backing for TVs and cabinets; cupboards beyond what the package supplies
Taken from Paramount’s Phase 2 brochure specification, April 2026; where your sale agreement says otherwise, it wins. “Semi-furnished” has no public itemised list, so your schedule is the first thing we read.
What have compact homes nearby cost to renovate?
Nobody has renovated an Atera home yet, ourselves included, because the towers are unfinished. Closest to hand are published renovation records for small condominiums in Petaling Jaya and Ara Damansara, each carried out by another firm.
Four of those homes, 600 to 935 sq ft, came in at RM68,000–150,000: RM86–160 per sq ft and 8–14 weeks on site. Briefs vary widely, so use them as a guide to rates.
You’ll find them listed one building at a time on our Petaling Jaya renovation cost index.

The Atera, from floor plan to move-in day
Can I hang a TV or wall cabinets on The Atera’s drywall partitions?
Yes, once it’s planned. Paramount’s specification puts drywall in the two- and three-bedroom types, so heavy pieces need timber or metal backing, or fixings rated for board, marked on our drawings. Board partitions are simpler to move than brick, subject to management approval.
What does ‘semi-furnished’ include at The Atera?
Paramount hasn’t published an itemised list. Its specification counts points rather than appliances: three air-conditioner points in a two-bedroom, four in a three-bedroom, six in the dual key. Your sale agreement’s schedule settles it, and we read it alongside you.
How should I use the dual key’s fourth room?
Give it a purpose first. It comes with a separate entrance, bathroom, pantry sink, hob point and electrical board. For a parent, we’d plan quiet and step-free access; for a grown-up child, storage and a desk. Letting it on its own depends on house rules not yet issued.
Will new lights and fans work with The Atera’s smart-home app?
They can, provided they’re chosen for it. Lighting, fans, air-conditioning and switches all answer to one app, beside a digital lock. Since the system’s maker isn’t published, we confirm compatibility with its supplier first, instead of leaving you with a second app.
When should I start designing if my keys come in 2027 or 2028?
Five to six months before handover suits most owners. Tower 1 is due in November 2027, Tower 2 in October 2028. Starting from your sale-agreement floor plan means drawings are ready on key day, and quotes follow soon after our site visit, while neighbours are still hunting for contractors.
How much does it cost to renovate and furnish an Atera three-bedroom?
A 1,022 sq ft three-bedroom typically takes RM141k–260k at Curated (Commune, Cellini or Poet Living), or RM300k–631k at Bespoke (Space Furniture, BoConcept or Molteni&C), before our fee. Anything your package already supplies, such as air-conditioners or wardrobes, brings that down.
While your tower is still rising, shall we start on the inside?
Send over which tower, which plan, the floor plan from your sale agreement and a rough budget. Our first call is free, and before you sign anything you’ll see our fee estimated in writing, room by room.
