Sense Of Purpose

Singapore welcomes its first Six Senses property at Duxton Road, which brings with it more than just beautifully furnished rooms — it aims to introduce a sense of purpose to the community through sustainable practices and community building.

With its façade painted black, it’s hard to miss the new Six Senses hotel along Duxton Road, particularly with the technicolor signs and shop houses that are characteristic to the neighborhood. “I’m finally here,” it says, without having to utter a single word. And of course, we take notice.

Inside the Anouska Hempel-decorated property, guests are transported to a cozy enclave, almost like a classic bar inside a luxury sleeper train. Rich tones of yellow and gold, complemented by black fixtures and finishes are the norm here, save for the Pearl Suite, which is a hidden all-white sanctuary.

Of course you’d expect a Six Senses property to look this stunning, but what surprises us most is that it doesn’t just look good, it does good as well.
