The floor stays clear
Nothing meets the tiles, so a mop goes straight under and there is no join around the base collecting the things that collect around toilet bases.
A wall-hung smart toilet mounts off the floor with its cistern concealed behind the wall, which leaves the floor clear underneath and the room reading larger than it is. The Starke Désignerin is the wall-hung model in the smart range, at the twenty-five function level.

A bowl floating clear of the floor shows more of the tiling, and in a small Singapore bathroom that is most of the visual gain.
It sits inside the wall on a steel frame, so the only thing in the room is the bowl and the flush plate.
A wall-hung toilet is carried by a steel frame fixed behind the wall, which is what takes the weight rather than the tiling. That frame has to go in, and going in means the wall is opened. It is renovation work, and it is why this is a decision made with the bathroom rather than after it.
Every wall-hung toilet bowl purchase comes with a wall-hung bracket.
Converting an S-trap bathroom to a wall-hung WC is possible. It is a discussion between the renovator and the owner, because it is work on the bathroom rather than a choice of bowl, and the right time to have it is before the tiling goes down.
Freestanding and wall-hung are two different categories and one does not substitute for the other. If the answer for your bathroom turns out to be freestanding, the range is on the smart toilet bowls page and every one of those bowls goes in without opening a wall.
At the twenty-five function level the bowl carries the full set: automated seat cover heating, automated flush after you leave the seat, radar sensor open cover, bidet washing with adjustable water temperature and strength, warm wind drying, a self-cleaning nozzle, night light, remote control and power outage flushing.
The surface is doing work too. Starke Sauber is the anti-bacterial glaze fired into the ceramic rather than painted onto it, and Starke Siphon is the whirlpool flush that clears the bowl on up to 35% less water.
Like every smart toilet, it runs on electricity and needs a supply near the bowl. In a wall-hung installation that is easier than usual, because the wall is already open. Where the socket goes.
