Singapore Colonial Style - 9789811188893

Great design should always make the mind travel, and the whimsical Arts & Crafts designs found in Singapore's famous black and white houses remain as inspirational today as they did in the early twentieth century. This new and updated collection showcases over 23 buildings, from Raffles Hotel, the High Commissioner's residence and airbase camps to private houses that have not been photographed before. Inside, a dazzling cornucopia of styles, in which modern art, period antiques and contemporary furniture are arranged together, provide rich source material for the East meets West design enthusiast.
