Abraham takes guests through a journey of colours and textures, beginning with the receiving area showcasing the Tatler House logo mounted on a custom-built screen amongst a striking orange and black palette. The walls are adorned with large-scale artwork, namely Anniketyni Madian s
Berasok wooden sculpture and Justin Lim s edgy mixed-media
We Want You
(Buden), are just the start of discovering the breadth of the AFK Collection who generously loaned all the art found in the suite.
