Muntri Mews was the second project undertaken by Chris Ong back in 2009
Formerly, it was a communal parking for horse carriages
Under Ong's skillful touch, the collection of Edwardian era buildings, which were in various stages of disrepair at that time, was transformed into contemporary accommodation, complete with original wooden windows, doors and roof trusses
The Grade II heritage building was originally the mews meant for the row of grand terrace houses built along the street during an era of affluence
The rooms upstairs were originally built as quarters for drivers and syce at that time
The long verandah that connected the rooms had remained, lending a feel of communal living amongst the workers during that period
This led to a common set of bathroom and kitchen that serviced the people that lived there
