A retro-chic design escape with a garden-and-pool glow in Singapore

Set in a coveted pocket between Orchard Road and the Botanic Gardens, The Standard, Singapore has the easy buzz of a members’ club without the rulebook. It brings the brand’s design confidence in full colour, with plant-dotted spaces, Seventies-leaning details and an atmosphere that quietly encourages you to linger.

Playful, polished interiors set the tone throughout. Rooms lean into retro-modern styling with bamboo panelling, warm textures and flashes of colour, and a calm that feels like a real pause from the city. It’s a look with personality, but designed to be effortlessly liveable.

A two-storey garden adds a rare sense of green in this part of town, and the pool is the place you’ll keep drifting back to, whether you’re after shade, a slow dip, or a more sociable evening mood as the day softens.
