For centuries, Peranakans played pivotal roles in the life of Singapore and the region. Peranakans were pioneers in crossing boundaries and forging multiple allegiances. They expressed loyalty to both Britain and China, as well as to the strong community they established in Singapore. Many traditional shophouses’ facades ornamentation in Singapore draw inspiration from the use of Peranakan pastel coloured glazed tiles, often with floral or geometric motifs. The degree of a shophouse’s ornamentation depends on the prosperity of its owner and the surrounding area.
