About the House Kongsi House was named after the clan organisations and social clubs for Chinese immigrants originating from the same province. In the past, they helped the newly-arrived overcome economic difficulty and social ostracism. Today, kongsi continue to symbolise a deep spirit of cooperation and the consideration of mutual welfare. This house pays homage to the entrepreneurial spirit of Ong Sam Leong, its address’s namesake and a prominent member of several kongsi. Imagining a home fit for the industrious businessman who lived in the late 19th century, a brooding, serious-minded space ripe for both living and working provided the vision for the house.
