In 2018, Currency Design crafted an exhibition with the goal of chronicling the narratives of local book publishers and retailers, capturing the multifaceted experience of Singapore’s literary enclave. These stories were intricately woven into the very fabric of Bras Basah Complex through immersive installations. At the heart of the project lies a book—a meticulously designed compendium of indexes paying homage to Bras Basah Complex as a vibrant City of Books. This narrative delves deep into the experiences of three unique booksellers, presenting a comprehensive and intimate portrayal of their contributions to Singapore’s rich literary tapestry.
