The Black & White Hotel In Singapore

The Club is a luxury hotel in Singapore that features only two colors, black and white.The hotel has a combination of traditional and modern design. It was designed by the Ministry of Design. The design director, Colin Seah, said "Searching to ground the hotel in the context of Singapore as well as the historically rich conservation area of Club Street and Ann Siang Hill, we drew its inspiration from 2 sources. The first is Singapore's colonial past, which we have made modern tongue-in-cheek references to through art installation like features such as an larger-than-life statue of Raffles with his head in the clouds as well as through some key furniture pieces and artifacts. The second inspiration was drawn from the area's popularity as a remittance center for turn of the century Chinese immigrants where hard earned money and wistful letters were sent back to the homeland. We have taken the memories of these exchanges and created features that hint of this legacy in the rooms of The Club, where the modern day nomad and the nomad of yesterday cross paths for a moment.”"

The hotel has 22 luxury rooms, a rooftop skybar and a tapas bar on the ground floor. It features undulating folds of fabric hanging from the ceiling and black illustrations of plants and trees.
