September 2013 – Hello from our beautiful Geylang office! Working at the heart of Geylang is indeed an eye-opener. With so much “Ahem” authentic culture to experience, there is never a dull day here! Of course, not forgetting the food – if it’s good enough for the thousands who flock here everyday it’s good enough for us!

In this issue we’d like to share with you our recently completed projects.

We have moved out of our office at Circular Road. You can now find us at 17 Lorong 24A Geylang. See you there!

We bid a fond adieu to 2012 and to a few of our recently completed projects, including a charming and quirky restaurant serving small plates, an epic whisky embassy in Beijing, and the Type Trip to Osaka exhibition where our creative director Chris Lee will be making an appearance. More details here.
