Sino-Portuguese architecture

Sino-Portuguese-styled shophouses are most prominent in Singapore, especially at its Chinatown. The facade of the leftmost example was remodeled in a late-Art Deco style.

Sino-Portuguese architecture, also known as Chinese Baroque, Straits/Singapore Eclectic architecture or Peranakan architecture is an Asian hybrid style incorporating elements of both Chinese and Portuguese architectural styles. It is common in urban centers where Chinese settlers lived in southern China and the Peranakans of the Malay Peninsula, with examples found and most prominently conserved and maintained in Singapore.

Historical areas with such architecture can also be found throughout Malay Peninsula, Southern Thailand (primarily Phuket), Macau, Vietnam and Hainan (primarily Haikou). In many of these places however, such structures have either been demolished or are in a state of disrepair.
