Tiffany Lovage’s Merchandise Set

Drawing inspiration from sticker collections of many young children’s favourite, Tiffany’s merchandise features an assemblage of familiar elements and motifs that highlights both the distinctiveness and traditional-vs-contemporary aspects of our culture.

Keith Yeo’s Merchandise Set

In his years spent abroad, one aspect of our local culture that Keith missed the most was dining at zi char restaurants with his family. When tasked to create a merchandise set that reflected the distinct mix of cultures in Singapore, he naturally gravitated toward the idea of reimagining this iconic aspect of our local dining culture.
