Inspiration: An Eclectic Hotel in Singapore

The New Majestic Hotel in Singapore describes its aesthetic as "heritage chic," a blend of vintage and new styles. To achieve the right mix, the hotel enlisted the help of local artists and designers who created concepts for the rooms. The results are a hodgepodge of mid-century furniture, specially commissioned pieces, and quirky details...

The building dates to 1928, but recent renovations have opened up the floorplan and divided the hotel into 30 rooms.
