Revelry turned quiet luxury at Riviere
The site’s legacy, 300m river frontage, proximity to two MRT stations and design by SCDA Architects are expected to draw both investors and owner-occupiers
Hong Kong-born, Singapore-bred film director Elgin Ho met his wife at Zouk, when it was at Jiak Kim Street. It was during a Heineken Green Room event sometime in 2006-2007. Besides the artistes, there were activities that evening, including a face-painting counter.
Ho’s friends had made him get his face painted. “From the corner of my eye, I saw a girl laughing as my face was being painted,” recounts Ho. “I told her it was her turn next. After our faces were painted, they took our pictures and asked us for our email addresses. I asked for hers too.”
