My partner and I came out to
Singapore from the UK, and I was 33
weeks pregnant at the time. Our condo
was brand new and unfurnished, but
we had been directed towards WTP via
Rima Shrivastava,

We recently moved into a retro 1960s
house and were looking for our furniture
to reflect our love for modern retro
pieces and be in keeping with the
house’s aesthetic. We were looking for
a stylish, functional sofa, and this one
from Originals fit the bill perfectly.
It’s a charcoal-grey three-seater with
wooden legs and buttons. It has a lovely
structure, and is very well made with an
emphasis on quality. It suits our style and
fits in beautifully with our retro, modern
yet classic home. In fact, we intend to get
another two-seater in the same design.
We call it our
Mad Men
sofa, as it is
reminiscent of the one in the opening
credits of our favourite television series.
It was also very well priced.
I heard about Originals when we
moved nearly five years ago, and love
its beautiful collection. The service is
exceptional and Originals has always
been able to help me find the perfect
pieces for my home. I love the sprawling
store at the Sime Derby Centre, and I
find it easy to shop there as the staff are
so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable,
and the design, layout and setting make
it easy to imagine the furniture in your
home.
We also have some beautiful Indian
cabinets from Originals, in an array of
colours, in almost every room of our
home, as well as three leather chairs
for our home office in black and tan
soft leather, and a small study desk.
They are stylish and functional. Originals
is my “go to” store for any furniture
requirements.

Rob’s company. Fortunately, they made
our sofa before our baby was born – in
fact, it only took a couple of weeks for
them to make it to order.
I found that WTP gave exceptional
customer care with a genuine personal
touch. We required something L-shaped
with good width, and a foam top and
feather backing. WTP has a wide
selection of colours to choose from, but
we wanted something sleek and sharp
that would suit our contemporary condo
in River Valley, so we went for dark grey.
The sofa is probably my favourite
piece of the furniture that we have
purchased; it was very comfortable while
I was pregnant, and is now perfect for
looking out across the Singapore skyline,
and enjoying the peace and quiet once
our baby has been put to bed.
We also purchased our beds,
televisions, console table and coffee
table from WTP. We’ve had many
positive comments about the coffee
table, which looks like a sliced section
of a tree.
I love my sofa. Not only does it fit well
in our modern apartment, but we’ve had
many good naps on it too!
