hotel clover the arts
> Boutique property Hotel Clover the Arts is
the third Hotel Clover to open in Singapore
by Singa Group of Companies, a local hotelier
that aims to fill the gap between luxury
branded properties and basic backpacker
facilities.
This one is situated in a six-story
Chinatown shophouse on bustling South
Bridge Road, a street that is becoming
gentrified as new tenants and owners move
into protected colonial buildings. Starting
with its strikingly adorned façade, the 44key property is one huge canvas within
that showcases numerous Singaporean
professional, amateur, and student artists.
"We envision a boutique hotel that would
allow our visitors to experience a multitude
of subjects through art," says Teo Kok Hwee,
CEO of Singa Group. "Art is typically fairly
transient, but we wanted our visitors to be able
to develop a relationship with all the tangible,
unadulterated art around them-not just look
at it, as in galleries or museums, but also touch
it, feel it, and really immerse themselves in
it. The hotel also hopes to offer a platform for
these talented artists."
He invited local students to participate
in a mural competition just before the
hotel opening. Now, 19 rooms display their
efforts. The winning entry by Raffles Design
Institute students Devina Chandra, Vini
Kurniawan, and Angel Jayayanti depicts a
travel journal showcasing Singapore's bestknown attractions, such as Marina Bay Sands
and Universal Studios Singapore. Students
from Singapore Institute of Technology's
Glasgow School of Art, LaSalle College of the
Arts, Temasek Polytechnic, and Singapore
Polytechnic also participated, transforming
each room into an outlet for their creativity.
Thoughtful touches include bed runners that
reiterate the colors of the room's artwork.
Professional graffiti artist Ceno2 got out
his aerosol cans of paint to adorn the walls of
the fifth floor's 11 rooms and the hotel's ground
floor lobby with surrealistic images. His larger
than life, in-room Mount Fuji offers a view
of Japan's famed peak against a foreground
of cherry blossoms. Nine members from
nonprofit amateur group Singapore Life Art
Society made their mark upon 11 rooms on
the fourth floor, including a multi-hued koi
fish painted above the bed by Gillian Hey and
Josephine Ho, transforming the room into a
vibrant aquarium.
"By crafting the most iconic Singapore
attractions onto public spaces like the lobby
and the external façade of the hotel, the idea
is to create a talking point to encourage guests
and staff to mingle," notes Ceno2.
