For my Final Year Project for my Bachelor's in Fine Arts specialising in Product Design, my professor suggested that I go with book making, since I 'light up' when I talk about it. Memory Lane, a series of four books based on Singapore's iconic shophouses, came to life.

Inspired by urban sketching, I took photographs of shophouses in Chinatown, Kampong Glam, Little India, and Ann Siang Hill. 

I reimagined the shophouses in Rhinoceros, before laser cutting and gluing several sheets of paper per shophouse to produce a layered effect.

Now, one can sketch historical buildings within the pages of a historical building.
