Interior designer at The Westside Three
Your Westside Three home, refined by the years lived.
Which cupboard overflows, which room never cools, where the morning light lands: years of living here make a sharper brief than any floor plan. We start from yours.
A single wall for the screen, the keyboard and a playpen’s worth of toys, drawn around one family’s evenings: the kind of brief a lived-in Westside Three home makes possible.

The Westside Three floor plans, seven years on in the tallest tower
The Westside Three, the 47-storey tower beside The Westside Two in Desa ParkCity, was finished in 2019, so most owners have lived with its rooms for years.
Our interior design starts from what those years have shown you.
Live in a home for a few years and it tells you things no floor plan can: the cupboard that is always full, the bedroom that never cools in the afternoon, the corner where everyone drops their bags. At The Westside Three, that knowledge is the most useful thing you can bring to a first conversation with us.
Sundays in Bed has no project in this tower so far. This page draws on the main contractor’s announcement, agents’ listings and the property sites, and every point is tested in your own rooms before it shapes a drawing.
EdgeProp reported in January 2018 that Perdana ParkCity had appointed GDB as main contractor, that work had begun in December 2015, and that the tower had topped off ahead of schedule. It was completed in 2019: one freehold tower of 47 storeys and 469 homes on 4.27 acres of Jalan Residen Utama, the tallest of the three Westside towers.
Five plan families run from 1,077 to 1,927 sq ft built-up, the widest spread of the three. The sizes overlap, so a 3+1 can be smaller than a roomy three-bedroom: the extra room is about a job, not about floor area.
- 1,077–1,196 sq ftTwo bedrooms; the only plan with a published bathroom count, two
- 1,228–1,377 sq ftTwo bedrooms and a smaller third room (2+1)
- 1,443–1,583 sq ftThree bedrooms
- 1,529–1,680 sq ftThree bedrooms and a smaller fourth room (3+1)
- 1,788–1,927 sq ftFour bedrooms and a smaller fifth room (4+1), which one agent lists as a 3+2
What came with the keys
An agent’s 2020 listing, worded like developer copy, describes the homes as handed over semi-furnished: built-in kitchen cabinets, air-conditioners in the bedrooms and living room, water heaters, shower screens and an intercom to the guardhouse. We treat that as the likely starting point and check yours, since seven years, and sometimes a second owner, have passed since.
Every one of those pieces was chosen for a typical household and placed for a typical layout. The cabinets may suit you well; an air-conditioner blowing straight at the spot where your desk now stands may not.
One tower, five kinds of household
A couple in a 1,077 sq ft two-bedroom and a family of six in a 4+1 can share a lift here, and their briefs barely overlap. The couple may want a guest room that doubles as a study and a table for four that stretches to eight on Saturdays; the family needs a bed for everyone, a quiet corner for homework and a fifth room that is more than a store.
The Westside Three interior design, from what the years have taught you
In a Westside Three home, we begin with the list only you can write: what has worked since 2019 and what never has.
Then we look at what the handover left in each room, and keep the parts that still earn their place.
If an air-conditioner is in the wrong place
Units handed over for a standard layout don’t follow a room that changes job. If a bedroom became a study, or the bed moved to the other wall, the cold air may now land on a pillow or a keyboard. Moving a unit means new trunking and a new drain, so we settle it before any ceiling or joinery is finished.
If the kitchen cabinets are sound but tired
Seven years in, most handover carcasses are still square and dry; it is the door fronts, the edging and the handles that show their age. New fronts, a sintered stone top and a strip of light under the wall cabinets change the room without moving a pipe.
If the extra room became the junk room
In a 2+1, 3+1 or 4+1, the small room tends to fill with whatever has nowhere else to go. Give it one job, a study, a guest room, a helper’s room or a store with real shelving, and the sockets, data, lighting and cooling follow from that choice.
If you furnished in a hurry when the keys came
Most homes are furnished in the first busy weeks after handover, and seven years on it is clear which of those pieces were right. The good sofa stays and gets new cushions; the dining table bought as a stopgap, or the bed that blocks a wardrobe door, is where a redesign starts.
If seven humid years show in the corners
Silicone round the sink and the shower turns yellow, grout darkens, and a wardrobe pushed against an outside wall can hide a patch of mould. On the visit we pull a few things forward and look behind them; new joinery then stands a finger’s width off the wall, with a vent at the top, so the air keeps moving.
If you have outgrown the two-bedroom
In 1,077 to 1,196 sq ft, room comes from the walls rather than the floor: wardrobes to the ceiling, a desk hung on the wall, beds with drawers beneath, and a sofa sized to the room instead of the showroom. A guest who stays twice a year can have a good sofa bed rather than a bedroom.
If the 4+1 holds a full house
Up to 1,927 sq ft can sleep six. Each child gets a desk and a shelf that is theirs alone, the fifth room is kept for a helper or for grandparents’ visits, and the dining table is sized for everyone on the busiest night of the week.
If the bathrooms still have their screens
The 2020 listing names water heaters and shower screens among the handover. After seven years we check the seals, the heater and the grout; where they are sound, a new vanity, a better mirror and warmer light may be all a bathroom needs.
What interior design costs at The Westside Three
For The Westside Three, our estimated design fee is RM23,310–30,440 for a 1,443 sq ft three-bedroom and RM34,005–41,135 for a 1,788 sq ft 4+1.
It is a fee per room, agreed in writing before we begin.
- Each room we design
- RM3,565
- Living and dining
- RM5,485
So what does designing a Westside Three home with us cost? The count of rooms decides it, never the floor area: a 1,228 sq ft 2+1 and a 1,443 sq ft three-bedroom carry the same estimated fee here, and a handover kitchen or bathroom kept just as it is comes off the list. The rooms you have learned to live around are usually the ones to start with.
3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and the kitchen: 5 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 lower figure covers the essentials; the upper figure 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
The fee is settled and written into your agreement before design starts, with stage payments as the work moves on. A dearer worktop or a better air-conditioner changes the contractor’s price, never ours.
Add Curated finishes (Commune, Cellini, Poet Living) to our fee, and a 1,443 sq ft three-bedroom comes to roughly RM236k–397k.
| Home | Our fee | Curated | Bespoke |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-bed 1,443–1,583 sq ft | RM23,310–30,440 | RM213k–367k | RM414k–802k |
| 2-bed 1,077–1,196 sq ft | RM19,745–23,310 | RM188k–324k | RM368k–714k |
| 2+1 1,228–1,377 sq ft | RM23,310–30,440 | RM202k–348k | RM393k–760k |
| 4+1 1,788–1,927 sq ft | RM34,005–41,135 | RM272k–465k | RM516k–986k |
Each lower figure assumes a common Westside Three scope: the living and dining room, the kitchen, all the bedrooms, one bathroom (two in the 4+1) and, in plans with a ‘+1’, that room set up as a study. The higher figure allows one more room in the two-bedroom and two more elsewhere, often the second or third bathroom.
Estimates only, October 2026.
Behind the Westside Three figures
Each plan is priced as a 2019 resale, its kitchen taken as closed and one bathroom fewer than it has; only the two-bedroom’s bathroom count is published, so we confirm the rest when we visit. Air-conditioners, appliances, cabinets and wardrobes are all counted inside the ranges, and since the handover put cabinets and air-conditioning into most homes, every unit you keep brings your total down.
Furnishing to let?
If your Westside Three home is for a tenant, our Essential level is the quicker, tougher choice, furnished from Ikea, SSF Home and Harvey Norman. Our fee stays the same at every level.

Renovating at The Westside Three, on schedule in a 47-storey tower
At The Westside Three, lift time is booked through the management office well before the first trade arrives.
We plan and oversee the work, and the contractor who builds it is the one you pick after we have laid every quote out with you.
- Your list, first FreeWhich plan you own, what came with it and has worked, what hasn’t, and who lives with you now.
- Testing the handover RM200, waived if you go ahead with usWe measure, run each air-conditioner and water heater, open the kitchen cabinets and mark the pieces that still earn their place.
- Rooms and fee, then designYour rooms and our fee are put in writing before any design work. Layouts, lighting, cabinetry and finishes come after that.
- Like-for-like quotesA single set of drawings goes out to several contractors, which keeps their prices comparable. We weigh the quotes together; the decision is yours.
- Works, then the finishingWe handle the management paperwork and lift time, inspect each stage against the drawings, and style the rooms before you move back in.
All 469 households share this tower’s lifts and walls, so the programme is built around them: the noisiest work grouped into as few days as we can, materials brought up at quiet hours, and a note to your neighbours before it starts. See how a project runs
Who has a say at The Westside Three
Strata by-laws put the management’s written consent ahead of any work, sometimes with a deposit attached. The tower hasn’t published its working hours or how its lifts are booked, so we confirm both with the office before setting dates.
As Desa ParkCity is in Kuala Lumpur, any permit is DBKL’s to grant, and the contractor you appoint usually applies.
Interior design at The Westside Three, built around its household
Every Westside Three household started from a developer’s handover, and no two have lived in it the same way.
We design around yours: who is there, how the days run, and what the next few years may bring.
Perhaps the 2+1 you bought as a couple now has a cot in the small room, or the 4+1 that held three children is about to hold two and a grandparent. Seven years is long enough for a household to change shape, and the rooms can change with it, often without moving a wall.

What have owners in this tower spent?
One published renovation record names The Westside Three: another firm’s project of about 1,500 sq ft with three bedrooms, RM130,000 in all, or RM87 per sq ft, with four weeks on site.
Across Desa ParkCity condominiums, published records sit near RM92 per sq ft; on a 1,443 sq ft plan here that would be about RM133,000. Many leave out loose furniture, appliances and air-conditioning, which our ranges above include, so they measure the building work rather than the finished home.

FAQ
Seven years in: Westside Three questions
Should I replace the kitchen The Westside Three was handed over with?
Not necessarily. At The Westside Three, many handover kitchens still have sound carcasses and hinges after seven years; fresh door fronts, a sintered stone worktop and light under the wall cabinets can make one feel your own. We open every cabinet on the site visit before you decide.
Are The Westside Three’s original air-conditioners worth keeping?
Often, if they still cool well and the room still has the same use. The units handed over at The Westside Three were placed for a standard layout, so where a bedroom has become a study, or two rooms have been joined, they may need moving or resizing before the ceilings are finished. Each unit is run and noted on the visit.
What can the extra room in a Westside Three 2+1, 3+1 or 4+1 become?
Whatever you will use most: a study, a guest room, somewhere for a helper to sleep, or shelved storage, chosen before anything is drawn. In the Westside Three plans with a ‘+1’, that choice fixes where the sockets, data, lighting and cooling go. Fitted out, the room counts once on our fee.
How can a 1,077 sq ft Westside Three two-bedroom feel larger?
With fewer, better-sized pieces and storage built into the walls. In the smallest Westside Three plans, a sofa scaled to the room, under-bed drawers, a desk mounted on the wall and wardrobes that reach the ceiling leave the floor clear, and a clear floor is what makes a compact home feel generous.
How much is an interior designer at The Westside Three?
Our design fee at The Westside Three is an estimated RM23,310–30,440 for a 1,443 sq ft three-bedroom and RM34,005–41,135 for a 1,788 sq ft 4+1, agreed in writing before we begin. For the three-bedroom, renovation and furniture add roughly RM213k–367k at Curated (Commune, Cellini, Poet Living) or RM414k–802k at Bespoke (Space Furniture, BoConcept, Molteni&C). One published record from another firm in this tower: about 1,500 sq ft, RM130,000, four weeks on site.
Do I need management’s approval before renovating at The Westside Three?
Yes. At The Westside Three, the management’s written consent comes before any work and a deposit may be asked; DBKL is the council for any permit. We prepare the drawings and forms, and confirm the tower’s working hours and lift bookings with the office.
What are the floor plans at The Westside Three?
The Westside Three has five plan families from 1,077 to 1,927 sq ft built-up: two-bedrooms of 1,077–1,196 sq ft, 2+1s of 1,228–1,377, three-bedrooms of 1,443–1,583, 3+1s of 1,529–1,680 and 4+1s of 1,788–1,927. The sizes overlap, so a 3+1 can be smaller than a roomy three-bedroom.
When was The Westside Three completed, and how many homes does it have?
The Westside Three was completed in 2019: one freehold tower of 47 storeys and 469 homes on 4.27 acres of Jalan Residen Utama, the tallest of the three Westside towers. EdgeProp reported in January 2018 that Perdana ParkCity had appointed GDB as main contractor, with work begun in December 2015.
What did The Westside Three’s homes come with at handover?
An agent’s 2020 listing, worded like developer copy, says The Westside Three’s homes were handed over semi-furnished, with built-in kitchen cabinets, air-conditioners in the bedrooms and living room, water heaters, shower screens and an intercom to the guardhouse. Seven years and sometimes a second owner later, we check what is still in yours.
Is there a home you’ve designed at The Westside Three to look at?
Not yet: Sundays in Bed has no project in The Westside Three so far. This page works from the main contractor’s announcement, agents’ listings and the property sites, and every point is tested in your own rooms before it shapes a drawing.
What interior design services do you offer at The Westside Three?
At The Westside Three, our condo interior design covers all five plan families, from the 1,077 sq ft two-bedroom to the 1,927 sq ft 4+1, with renovation design for homes seven years past their handover. We draw the plans, compare contractors’ quotes with you and manage the works on site, and contractors do the building. Interior styling, furnishing through our Procurement Concierge, and Virtual Design for homes outside Kuala Lumpur and Selangor are available as well.
