Coffee & Connect at a Black & White House
Join us to Connect over a Cup on Wednesday 19 August!☕✨
A great moment to catch up, share stories and meet new people at a very special location, as Karien van Dietzhuijzen is hosting us in her Black and White home.
Black and White Houses are a well-known part of Singapore’s architectural heritage. With their mock Tudor facades and stark black beams, they remind us of the era of the colonial British period, when they were built by the administration, the military or private companies for their staff and normally not open for the public.
Besides hosting us, Karien will tell us about the history of the house and the joys and challenges of living in a 105-year-old heritage house surrounded by jungle. She will explain how the research she did on her current house, as well as the two previous Black and White houses she lived in, inspires her writing, particularly her latest novel ‘The Black and White House.’
