Best furniture stores in Singapore
1. Elements Concept
Here’s your one-stop shop for handcrafted furniture and home accessories. Elements Concept boasts a combination of Dutch design and Indonesian craftsmanship, controlling every step of the production process right from the material-sourcing stage. And we have to talk about the gorgeous, natural materials the pieces are made of: Teak, bamboo, rattan, marble and handwoven cotton are used to craft the finest resort-inspired designs. Clean and minimal with a hint of the tropics, there’s a breezy statement piece for every room in your house. Alternatively, add a touch of summery, tropical decor with home accessories like a rattan basket to stash your laundry in style or the Sun Rug made of dried and bleached banana leaves.
