What sparked the idea for Figment?
Fang Low: I wanted to help bring back shophouse living, and the first step in establishing Figment was to take a risk and reinvent the very same shophouse I grew up in as a boutique home for co-living. Local design firm Ministry of Design had the radical vision of painting the entire house white as a blank canvas for us to start writing this chapter in reimagining shophouses and the neighbourhoods around them.
What do you love about living in shophouses?
