The Craft X Design project is part of NHB’s efforts to promote greater awareness of intangible cultural heritage (ICH), raise the profile of local traditional craftsmanship, and increase access of local traditional craft practitioners to new markets, networks and designs. Craft X Design pairs four traditional craft practitioners with four local designers and/or studios to reimagine traditional crafts into innovative and modern products that express and embody Singapore’s rich and diverse cultural heritage.
The multi-spherical bamboo lamp is a collaboration between Jimm Wong, one of the few remaining traditional Chinese lantern makers in Singapore, and designers from NextOfKin Creatives (NOK), Melvin Ong and Xu Xiao. |
