SINGAPORE, June 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Star Living has unveiled a new all-in-one home planning concept aimed at helping Singapore homeowners manage renovation, furnishing, and home appliance selection through a more coordinated and efficient process.

Star Living's latest initiative brings together renovation-related services, furnishings, electrical appliances, and sanitary solutions under a single customer experience designed to simplify project coordination.

- Air-conditioning installation
- Bathroom fittings and sanitary installation
- Interior consultation
- Furniture and mattress collections
- Home appliances and household essentials
Through this consolidated approach, customers can manage multiple aspects of their renovation and furnishing requirements through a single touchpoint, helping to reduce administrative complexity and improve planning efficiency.
"We want to make the renovation and furnishing process more manageable for homeowners. By bringing these services together, customers can enjoy a more seamless experience when planning their homes," said Koh Hong Jie, Group Retail Manager at Star Living.
Expanding Interior Solutions with OPU Door
As part of its broader product expansion, Star Living has also introduced OPU Door, a distributed door system brand offering contemporary door solutions designed for space-conscious residential interiors.
Launched in 2025, the collection includes:
- Slim-frame aluminium core doors
- Concealed doors for minimalist interiors
- Synchronised sliding door systems
- Phantom doors designed for tighter layouts and space optimisation
The range caters to homeowners seeking cleaner visual aesthetics while maximising functionality within compact urban homes.
Adapting to Lifestyle and Material Preferences
The company has also expanded its offerings in response to changing consumer preferences surrounding sustainability, wellness-focused materials, and pet-friendly home environments.
Its current product selections include:
- Low-formaldehyde materials
- Sustainably sourced furniture
- Scratch-resistant and stain-resistant upholstery fabrics suitable for pet owners
As part of its material standards, Star Living uses E1-grade or higher MDF and CARB P2-certified boards. The company has also been awarded the SFIC Sustainability Furniture Mark in recognition of its environmental and health-conscious practices.
Creating a More Connected Retail Experience
Star Living's showroom at Serangoon North reflects the company's lifestyle-oriented retail approach by presenting furnishings, renovation elements, sanitary fittings, and appliances within coordinated home settings.
The showroom is designed to help customers better visualise how different components can come together within a residential environment before making purchasing decisions.
In addition, Star Living works with established air-conditioning brands including Daikin, Midea, Panasonic, and Mitsubishi Electric to support a broader range of household needs.
Positioned for Evolving Consumer Needs
Established in 1981, Star Living continues to evolve alongside shifting homeowner expectations by focusing on practical home planning, coordinated services, and adaptable interior solutions.
By combining renovation-related services with furnishings, sanitary solutions, and appliances, the company aims to provide a more efficient and accessible approach for customers planning their homes.

The First Time a Game in the Legendary Franchise Comes to Consoles
BELLEVUE, Wash., June 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Critically-acclaimed game development studio ArenaNet® tonight announced Guild Wars 3™, the third entry in the legendary and beloved Guild Wars® MMORPG franchise and their first new game since 2012. The game will release globally on PC, Steam, and PlayStation 5, marking the first time a Guild Wars game will appear on home consoles. The first beta test is scheduled for fall of 2027.
The official debut trailer features the first in-engine gameplay footage and can be viewed HERE. The first concept art and other assets are hosted at the Guild Wars 3 official press kit.
"Guild Wars 3 is a new era not just for ArenaNet and Guild Wars, but also for MMORPGs as a whole," said Colin Johanson, Guild Wars 3 Game Director and ArenaNet Studio Head. "The MMORPG genre has millions of players worldwide eager for new, modern experiences, and the opportunity to harness that excitement is immense. Our approach with Guild Wars 3 is to push MMORPGs forward, to create an online game world that feels believable, rewarding, responsive, and innovative while at the same time respecting players' time and providing a positive, supportive space to build community and enjoy new stories in our universe."
Taking place over a thousand years before the events of the original game, Guild Wars 3 is set in the Tyrian region of Orr, a vast wilderness frontier imbued with the world's magic. Nature entities with strong connections to the land called Vael spirits embody the vitality of this lush, verdant landscape. Various guilds are engaged in conflict over how to protect or exploit the bounty beyond civilization's borders. These multitudinous spirits will vary in size and influence within the ecosystems around them, with the most notable of these being the Seeker. As seen in the trailer, every player's Seeker will serve as a connection to the spirits of Orr and a mount that will carry them on their journeys through the game's open world.
Players will assume the role of a Vaelwarden, a member of a guild of adventurers committed to preserving and protecting both the spirits of the wild and the land of Orr itself. Through the deep character customization and skill-building gameplay the Guild Wars franchise is known for, players will seek adventure and confront danger across this sumptuous, vibrant online world, growing their relationships with the spirits of the wild, the inhabitants of Orr, and other Vaelwarden players.
A combat system designed from the outset to feel great on both a controller and keyboard rewards positioning by emphasizing the joy of movement and momentum. As players seamlessly transition between various movement modes, they can harness their speed and turn it into bigger damage and impact when fighting their foes.
More information about pricing, beta tests, release date, and gameplay features will be revealed later in 2026 and into 2027. Guild Wars 3 will be available directly from the developers at GuildWars3.com, and can be wishlisted on Steam and the PlayStation Store beginning today, with more information available at the game's official website.
