Every upscale development's made the conversion to wicker poolside lounge chairs in place of the pleb white-plastic chairs(that gets really greasy and reminds you of unsanitary public pools).
For your roof terrace, poolside or even the balcony, turn to:
Ohmm and Gloster
Gloster has very good-looking love seats(with optional sail) at reasonable prices and the sole distributor as I understand it is Fun's Florist and Nursery at Andrew Road.

Maharam in Singapore
More on the thread of finding previously-unavailable decor brands in Singapore, FabricNation; a company with a cute name strategically situated on Haji Lane, now carries Maharam textiles.
Maharam, with collaborators like Paul Smith and Andree Putman(Paul Smith allegedly having "approached Maharam in 2002 after seeing I Morosi alla Finestra, a Gio Ponti designed silk, at a Ponti retrospective at the Design Museum in London") delivers fabrics backed by a certain conceptual resonance and progressive use of materials.

Where to Source Interesting Tiles in Singapore
Previously I'd always have turned to Rice Fields- a small, well-designed tile and bathroom fittings outfit that's recently re-located to the much-hyped Tiong Bahru Neighbourhood.
Recently however, I'd discovered GFA Global as well. With an interesting website, gorgeous accompanying visuals and possibly the only store that carries tiles imitating the textures of leather and metal, GFA Global also carries my much sought-after Bisazza feature tiles.

The cornerstone of most forms of advertising- you 'get it' because you're special...

To use an oft-employed phrase, a 'retro' ad.
