House at The Old Parliament. Of its' many rooms, Poole Associates was commissioned to design custom furnishings for 4 of these historical rooms.
What do government and art have in common? The Old Parliament House, for one. Designed and built by George Coleman as a colonial mansion in 1827, Singapore's oldest government building has been renamed and re-launched as The Arts House.

Formerly the home of Singapore's democratically-elected Parliament, the building now offers a charming and intimate venue for cutting edge contemporary visual arts, music, dance, film, comedy and theatre by Singaporean and international artists. Walk down the Corridors of Time, an exhibition reliving the life and times of the House and its many famous personalities. Not to be missed, gracing the exterior of the stately building, is a bronze elephant statue, a gift from King Chulalongkorn of Siam in 1871.
