    Joshua Oh, the only son in his family, knew that even after he got married, he would want to live near his mother. "Mum and I are very close," says Mr Oh, who works in the oil and gas industry.

    The family had been living in a two-storey semi-detached home in the West Coast area for the last 22 years. So when Mr Oh was getting married a few years ago, the family took the opportunity to rebuild the home which was showing signs of age.

    Rather than move out, the family decided to build a home big enough for Mr Oh and his wife, Nana Yu, his mum, aunt, younger sister and mother-in-law. Mr Oh's two older married sisters have homes of their own.
