For actress Janice Koh, a considered collection of art and furnishings marks her home’s sense of place and the passage of time
Years ago when Janice Koh and her husband started looking for a new home for their family, the search led them to their current house, which was constructed in the 1970s, and it was almost love at first sight.
“We liked that the house had a history and that it included Peranakan-style elements that reminded me of my childhood,” says Koh. “The only thing we did was to tear down walls to bring nature into the home.” The family has lived in the semi-detached house for 10 years now. In spite of appearing like an effortlessly curated mix of furnishings, the thespian professes it took her some time to create this thoughtful, layered setting.
