Tan Boon Liat Building Houses 37 Shops Selling Furniture & Lifestyle Products
They say first impressions last but you might want to look past that when it comes to this nondescript building at Outram Road.
If you’ve been in the area, you probably would’ve walked or driven right past what appears to be an old industrial building.
But step inside any one of the units and you might be surprised. Hidden from the public eye are stores selling quality furniture and home decor.
14 storeys of lifestyle shopping
With 37 lifestyle stores spread over 14 storeys, spending just a few hours at Tan Boon Liat Building won’t be enough.
Aiyo, might as well shop at IKEA right, everything there. At most climb staircase up or down one level can already.
Well yes, if you prefer convenience and owning furniture that everyone can identify because they’ve either seen it before or own it themselves.
But aren’t you tired of people’s comments about your home being right out of an IKEA catalogue? Everyone has seen what the showrooms have to offer, so why not try something different?
Take the time out of your weekend to visit some of the stores at Tan Boon Liat Building. You’re bound to find something that could add an interesting touch to your home.
Unique furniture & home decor stores
Are the walls in your house looking plain and boring like your computer screen at work?
Add colour and character to them by hanging paintings from LivingwithArt Singapore‘s gallery. The store even looks like it’s right out of a legit art museum.
Artwork isn’t just for the high-SES since affordable paintings can be bought here.
You can even customise the artwork by altering its style, colours, dimensions and execution so it would fit your living space better.
Of course, a house would be bare without furniture and home accessories. You can choose from the many home decor stores available, one of which is Journey East.
Hipsters of all shapes and sizes would scream “YASSS” when they see this store. From vintage to industrial furnishings, pieces from Journey East will appeal to fans of everything counter culture.
