Text by Louisa Clare Lim

 

W. Atelier has unveiled its new showroom in Bukit Merah, and you’ll be pleased to know that you can find a comprehensive range of furnishings and fittings for your home here.

Your living, bathroom and kitchen needs are sorted, with world-renowned brands such as Fritz Hansen, Zanotta, Lasvit, Santa & Cole, next125 and Toto – the store’s original flagship brand. The showroom is beautifully curated in contemporary settings, showcasing how the different elements – from classic furniture design icons and statement-making lighting to luxurious contemporary modular kitchens and innovative sanitaryware – can come together to create stunning home interiors.

There are also four unique bathroom concepts, the Universal Concept, Library Concept, Executive Concept, and Commercial and Hotel Concept, which show off the latest and greatest in the bathroom and sanitaryware market.

Here are some highlights:

#1 Fritz Hansen 

The Danish heritage brand is world-renowned for its designs that fuse traditional craftsmanship with elegant contemporary shapes, as well as its timeless design classics such as the super comfy Ro wingback armchair. One of the pieces fresh out of the Salone del Mobile Milano 2017 (held earlier in April) is the Lune sofa (pictured), by designer Jaime Hayon. It’s a modular piece – whether you want a 2-seater or large L-shape sofa, there’s an option for you – that balances curves and clean lines.

 

#2 Lema

Lema is a premium Italian furniture brand that specialises in modular systems, creating storage units, chairs, tables, beds and more that are trendy, yet sophisticated. The new T030 modular display and storage system, designed by architect and designer Piero Lissoni, is highly versatile and customisable with a choice of components, colours and finishings, so you can personalise it according to the style and functionality of your space.

 

#3 Santa & Cole

An international brand with roots in Barcelona, Santa & Cole makes gorgeous contemporary lighting pieces, as well as furniture. Sculptural and striking, without being over-the-top, the brand’s lamps are like jewellery for your space. Cestita Bateria is a new wireless and portable version of the original Cestita table lamp that was designed in 1962 by Spanish master Miguel Mila. It’s a convenient, functional update to the iconic wood and glass structure that’s both useful and decorative.

 

#4 SieMatic

An award-winning German kitchen brand, SieMatic has three different ranges – Classic, Pure and Urban – to cater to various lifestyle and aesthetic needs. The Urban range, in particular, comprises both standalone and built-in units that’s designed with the city dweller and a dynamic lifestyle in mind. Whichever range you choose, there is an impressive array of kitchen storage and organisation solutions, including interior accessories, flexible drawers, and configurable pull-outs. You can even get an entertainment system and Bluetooth connection for devices integrated!

 

#5 Toto

Exclusive in Singapore to W. Atelier, Toto is an acclaimed Japanese sanitaryware brand that’s at the forefront of bathroom and sanitaryware industry. Known for incorporating the latest technology and innovations into its products, the brand’s latest star product is the self-cleaning Neorest XH II, an advanced washlet-toilet that features a controllable electronic seat. Toto’s Actilight technology, a powerful cleaning system that makes use of ultraviolet light and a scientifically formulated glaze, is also integrated into the design of the toilet.
Spanning three floors and 20,000sqft, the showroom offers design inspiration at every turn – it’s hard not to find something you’ll want to bring home immediately!
