Description

The Chinese settlement in Singapore's town plan in 1822 was specifically created to supply various services to the European colonizers. A building style was created, first to bring about uniformity in the townscape, and second, to provide as much dwelling space as required. This was the concept in the creation of the shophouse : a 2-storey row house with a colonnaded verandah lining the street.
