A HOME TO REST & GATHER.
/rest/ (verb)
cease work or movement in order to relax, sleep or recover strength.
/the rest/ (noun)
the part that is left when other people or things are gone.
ROOM TO REPAIR. INSPIRATION TO DREAM. SPACE TO BE.
The Rest is a labour of hope - hope in the power of renewal through spaces we embody and that embody us. Set in a quiet neighbourhood far enough from the onslaught of life’s grind, and close enough to all the resources needed for rest - it is just the spot from which to repair and re-imagine something new.
OUR NEIGHBOURHOOD
Developed in 1950s for British servicemen and their families, Serangoon Gardens is one of the oldest neighbourhoods in Singapore. Evidence of this history can be gleaned in the many English street names - Chartwell Drive was named after the home in Kent of Britain's wartime prime minister Winston Churchill, and roads like Farleigh and Penshurst were named after English villages.
Older local residents call the estate “Ang Sar Lee”, or “red roof” in Hokkien, referring to the red-tiled roofs once common in the estate. And a feature of the roof at The Rest.
Serangoon Gardens is now a vibe-y estate famous for its food - ranging from hawker fare at Chomp Chomp to more than 20 restaurants and pubs. Today the village continues to have an eclectic mix of locals and expatriates.
