SCENE SHANG brings their signature aesthetic to SHANG HOUSE while remaining sensitive to the context of the space: located in the Balestier Conservation Area that has a history in rattan manufacturing, this restored pre-war terrace house features custom-made SCENE SHANG furniture with rattan elements as well as special edition homeware and art that highlight the century-old facade of SHANG HOUSE.
SHANG HOUSE features their signature SHANG system, the award-winning customisable, modular storage system with elements reminiscent of Ming Dynasty design. As a nod to the history of rattan weaving in the Balestier area, the SHANG system in SHANG HOUSE is a special wicker edition, while the beds, hanging lights, and entrance screens that greet visitors at the door have also been customised to include rattan elements.
Paying attention to the finer details, SHANG HOUSE is also softly furnished with brass and marble as well as handcrafted porcelain vases made by Middle Kingdom kiln in Jingdezhen, China. Driven to revive and broaden Chinese porcelain traditions for a modern audience, their exquisite pieces are collected and sold at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and the Baltimore Museum of Art. The SCENE SHANG-Middle Kingdom kiln partnership is founded on the shared ethos of invigorating craftsmanship for a contemporary audience.
As a conservation area with a history spanning 180 years, Balestier is home to a hodgepodge of old-school businesses, architectural styles, and cultural landmarks. You don’t have to step far to get a whiff of a good coffee roast or some freshly baked bread. Explore the area and you’ll find different architectural gems, some of which are photographed in SHANG HOUSE itself.
Shophouse living means living within conservation shophouses – quintessentially Singaporean works of art. These storied shophouses boast high ceilings, patterned jalousie windows, unique façades and layouts, and each one with its own unique history that will make your everyday living experience that much more memorable.
As historical urban dwellings, shophouses are located in vibrant heritage districts that allow you to experience that street level ambience and belong to the neighbourhood. When you live at Figment, you are living in a boutique home – not a cookie-cutter, copied-and-pasted condo compound.
Not so much – this is Figment’s vision of shared housing for grown-ups – that’s mature working professionals. We aren’t here to slice and dice apartments into matchboxes just to stuff as many ‘tenants’ as possible into a building, adult-dorm style. With Figment you always have room to breathe.
You can socialize as much as you want to, but you also reserve the option to retreat to the quiet comfort of your private studio within a spacious 3000ft² shophouse.
We have a maximum occupancy of 2 pax per studio.
You get a fully-furnished studio that’s move-in ready. WiFi, utilities, and weekly cleaning of the common areas are all included. To get you started, we’ll provide one complimentary set of bedding and towels, plus some basic household essentials. Of course, your rent includes the use of shared laundry and kitchen facilities, along with common areas for living and dining. You will also enjoy complimentary access to our members-only ‘living-room-away-from-home’, Figment Club House.
We have a common set of house rules (such as quiet hours) across our homes, which all members are expected to agree and adhere to before their stay.
We accept payment by local / overseas bank transfer, PayNow or credit card (processed by Stripe; note that 4% fees apply)
Yes, we require a security deposit of 1.5 month’s rent before the commencement of your stay to secure your booking. This security deposit will be refunded within 30 days from the end of your stay.
We’ll match your application with a Boutique Home that’s available on our end, and get back to you within the next business day.
