| Description |
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 collaboration between kebaya maker Raymond Wong and designers from Aller Row, Joanna Lim and Joanne Quek led to the reinvention of the traditional Peranakan Kebaya as a modern couture gown.
