There’s more to filling up a home than shopping for the big, functional stuff like your tables, chairs and sofas. Whether it’s throws, cushions, wallpaper or rugs, soft furnishings can help to add a cosy touch and give your space a well-decorated look.
Thankfully, our sunny island is dotted with a wide range of stylish stores to visit – if you know where to look! From sustainably sourced wallpapers to trendy, affordable rugs in places you’d least expect, here are a list of shops to hit in Singapore:
Wallpaper:
