Is this the year you receive the keys to your new home or decide to give your abode a makeover?
It is the ideal moment to imagine every detail, from the chairs that anchor your gatherings to the lighting that sets the mood. At W. Atelier, a world of high-end interiors awaits: Italian furniture, German kitchens, Scandinavian decor, and Spanish lighting, all under one expanded showroom roof.
W. Atelier partners only with brands that embody design integrity, exceptional craftsmanship, and longevity, favouring pieces that will remain relevant for decades rather than those shaped by passing trends. Many of these brands champion sustainability and compelling narratives, resonating with discerning homeowners.
Last year marked two key milestones. W. Atelier unveiled its new showroom at 211 Henderson Road, a design destination that brings together an edited portfolio of international furniture brands such as Fritz Hansen, Vitra, and the newly introduced Ditre Italia, complemented by an in-house dining concept with natural wine specialist Revolution.
Fritz Hansen asserts a commanding presence with a curated display of its iconic designs, from Arne Jacobsen’s Grand Prix and Series 7 chairs to Poul Kjærholm’s PK22 lounge chairs, PK80 daybeds, and the refined Table Series, featuring the collectible 07:14 edition of the Series 7 Chair.
Swiss brand Vitra, celebrated for defining contemporary living and workspaces, showcases a diverse range of residential, office, and public-space solutions through collaborations with Charles and Ray Eames, Verner Panton, Jean Prouvé, and Jasper Morrison.Highlight pieces include the Panton Chair, La Chaise Lounge, and the latest in flexible workplace furniture, making the showroom a complete destination for home and professional settings.
Adding to this esteemed roster, Ditre Italia unveils its 2025 collection of premium furniture, developed in collaboration with renowned designers, including the acclaimed French designer Patrick Norguet. Known for his clean, graphic approach, deep knowledge of industrial processes, and commitment to timeless, functional objects, Norguet exemplifies the values W. Atelier seeks in its partners. With nearly 50 years of craftsmanship behind it, Ditre Italia’s collections showcase meticulous detailing, a rich design heritage, and a shared dedication to aesthetic excellence.
W. Atelier’s story began in 1979 when it became the exclusive distributor for Toto in Singapore, introducing innovative Japanese bathroom technology, including the now-iconic Washlet, to local homes. What started as a specialist in sanitary ware gradually evolved into a gateway to refined, design-conscious living.
The iconic Toto Washlet was created to offer a more comfortable and hygienic experience than a traditional toilet, and its popularity has grown steadily over the years. It was the first to provide a water-cleansing function after use, offering a cleaner, sustainable alternative to toilet paper.
As design and technology have advanced, so too has the Washlet. Last year, Toto introduced the S7, a sleek, minimalist model tailored for contemporary homes and renovation projects. Often described as Toto’s perfect Washlet, it features gently sinuous lines, a profile that is 25 per cent slimmer, and a rimless seat for improved hygiene. The result is a design that not only heightens comfort and relaxation but also makes day-to-day cleaning effortless.
Originally known as Inhwa Marketing, the company first built its reputation in sanitary fixtures before outgrowing its initial identity. After more than three decades, it rebranded as W. Atelier in 2009, adopting a name that reflects a design-forward, lifestyle-focused vision while honouring its roots in water and bath culture.
This transformation marked a shift from pure functionality to a celebration of aesthetics, innovation, and the art of living well. It set the foundation for W. Atelier’s philosophy: to assemble timeless designs that elevate everyday rituals and transform houses into personal sanctuaries.
