Tatler Homes Design Awards 2024: Vote for the Best Showroom in Singapore

The next Best Showroom nominee is Danish brand Bolia’s first showroom in Singapore, envisioned as a mindful retreat, where homeowners and designers can seek inspiration from a variety of Scandi-chic, calming vignettes awash in understated hues.

Bolia focuses on crafting furnishings and accessories made to last with a modern, minimalist appeal, while being mindful of the environmental impact of its products; these include indoor and outdoor furniture options made with ethically sourced materials. The store also features an atelier section that displays mood boards, materials, and swatches for bespoke furniture.

Taking over an entire building in the Joo Chiat area, the Lixil Experience Centre brings together the company’s line-up of German (Grohe), Japanese (Inax), and American (American Standard) sanitary brands under one roof.

One particular highlight of the new showroom is the lavish Grohe Spa showcase, which sees an entire floor outfitted with its wide range of luxury faucets, sinks, modular shower jets, bathtubs, and more to bring the spa experience into your bathroom.

Stalwart furniture purveyor Xtra has tapped into the genius of multi-disciplinary design studio Produce to design three stunning kitchen settings that highlight its latest kitchen offerings, including German brand Poggenpohl and Italian brand Cesar.

The resulting spaces are a feast for the eye, featuring a rich, layered material palette. The centrepiece of the space is the Poggenpohl +Modo island, dressed in vivid Rosso Lepanto marble, golden-veined Persian quartzite and Eucalyptus Veneer. Elsewhere, an opening in the wall gives customers a glimpse of a dining room presided over by a stately kitchen island awash in comforting neutral hues, inspiring them to imagine their own.

Established by Proof Living, a purveyor of exquisite design and craftsmanship, Prelude Living is an extension of the brand’s impeccable taste and mastery of timeless, effortless luxury. This Best Showroom nominee at Ion Orchard is a luxurious oasis amid the bustling Orchard area, promising to inspire your interior refresh with a blend of visual appeal and functionality.

It has been designed not just as a place to discover your dearest décor finds, but also somewhere to pause and rest as you take in the fabulous settings around you. 

The showroom also elevates its shopping experience by offering customers a soothing cup of Poema, an exclusive tea blend that melds white floral notes and vanilla. If your palate doesn’t quite lean towards tea, ask for an invigorating cup of coffee instead. For a particularly well-rounded shopping experience, the showroom also offers a personal tour that can be booked online in advance.

Local lighting purveyor Sol Luminaire has refreshed the look of two of its showrooms. The open-concept Sol Luminaire Gallery now features a tiered ceiling that showcases imaginative ways to incorporate and layer lighting elements in your home; marble-clad elements and custom paint finishes elevate its beautiful, minimalist aesthetic. The space also features additions to its in-house task lighting label Aeon, including touch-sensor products with rotational capabilities, and discreet ceiling and wall lights.

A few doors down is The Lab2.1, which also received a beautiful interior makeover that blends modern industrial elements with sophisticated details. Here, raw elements like exposed steel frames and cast concrete surfaces are paired with custom furniture clad in lush materials like black leather and velvet.

Together with the statement lighting pieces artfully displayed throughout the interior, these elements immerse customers in an industrial chic, gallery-like retail experience.

Space Furniture’s Woha-designed showroom on Bencoolen Street set the bar high when it first opened in 2011. Celebrating the company’s 30th anniversary last year, the interiors of the two former historical villas and its modern glass-encased addition have been refreshed to showcase its latest offerings.

The freshly renovated showroom is a haven for discerning homeowners, showcasing a highly curated range of furniture pieces from the world’s most renowned designers, as well as lighting and, notably, plenty of home accessories to cater to Singapore homeowners’ preferences.

Envisioned as a lofty, apartment-like space that embodies the brand’s sustainable ethos, this Best Showroom nominee is a collaborative project of the V-Zug in-house design team and celebrated Singaporean interior designer Peter Tay.

Here, the cabinetry’s understated matte finishes and a tone-on-tone neutral colour scheme let the reflective quality of the mirrored doors on its kitchen appliances shine. This sophisticated opulence is woven in with thoughtful consideration of the environment.

The Italian marble used for the Ion Orchard showroom’s kitchen islands and backsplash applications was purposefully purchased from a local supplier’s Singapore stock to minimise carbon emissions from delivery and installation. The granite floor tiles by Inalco utilise an innovative production process that similarly minimises wastage.
