It aims to bring the design scene here in Singapore to a new level, by conducting workshops, lectures, collaborations and networking between local designers, whether they are famous or just fresh out of college. It’s another big step in the design industry that would bring designers to become more appreciated and respected.

For us, the conference was a chance to get to know other designers through listening and understanding what their perception of design is. It was quite interesting to see the different approach of what the designers have to offer. Some of the talks were more on the serious and learning process while some are showcasing progress and portfolio works of their design studios. Overall it’s good start and we’ll definitely look forward for more events like these!

Oh did I mention we also got a copy of their very first journal?

The film is a preview of new and emerging artist/designers from Japan. The overall film we think is an inspiration for us all and it gave an insight of Japanese culture and approach in their design, especially in motion graphics and shorts.

Some of it are funny, while some are serious and some of them are just random that we didn’t get it at first glance. Overall it was a good experience and we can’t wait to watch our next one, Craftwork. Tickets are still available to be purchased for the upcoming shows, by clicking here

For a more detailed insight and review into the films do stay tuned for our next issue!
