Tropical Style Home Decorating for Your Singapore Home

One of the good things about living here is that when you’re home decorating, you can go ‘tropical house style’ and it fits right in. We’re not talking flamingos and bamboo, though using those won’t hurt! For Singapore homes, you can explore using cool neutral colours, local products, indoor/outdoor themes and natural textures. Here are some great stores for tropical style inspiration – for both furniture and accessories.
