Aayu Melayu: A Journey through Time

Set in an Early Straits Eclectic Style (typically built between 1890s–1910s), with typical features such as full-length louvered windows, decorative plaster arches and central keystones, Aayu Melayu boasts 6 bedrooms with a maximum occupancy for 13 people.

The interplay between light and shadow is imminent in Aayu Melayu as filtered light carefully seeps through the glass roof at the double courtyards, providing ample natural lighting throughout the unit.
