Park Mall - it's a furniture shopping mall at Dhoby Gaut opposite Plaza Singapura. Plenty of high end furniture shop with brands you can find globally, but there are 2 shops I recommend
- Air Division
- Grafunkt
Both shops are founded by local designers (Grafunkt's owner used to be one of the founding partners of Air Division), so you can see a bit of contemporary local design. I have quite a few pieces of furniture from these 2 places.
If you have more time, the flagship outlet for Air Division is located at Mount Sophia, just 10 minutes walk from Park Mall, much bigger outlet with more pieces on display. Grafunkt's flagship is located in an industrial estate out of town, not worth the distance.
