A room with a view. Overlooking a "very Manhattan" Singapore skyline, the retro and recycled living room of an Asian-American couple's apartment features a classic art-deco sofa (Tong Mern Sern Antiques, Arts and Crafts) crafted in Singapore in the 1950s, a coffee table made from an old Indian daybed supporting Burmese lacquerware, and two Bank of China armchairs "literally picked up off the street" after they were thrown out during a renovation.
