A Chinese design-based book i bought in Taipei诚品 Bookstore; Creative Asia by Sean Yap, a writer from Singapore living in Shanghai. This book take us on a closer look at Design in Asia, featuring top designers from Thailand, Singapore and Hong Kong. It analyses the different characteristic and cultural influence of the designs from these 3 places.
From Singapore: PhunkStudio, Stikfas, Air Division and Ministry of Design (MOD).
From Thailand: Pawinee Santisiri, Crafactor, Greyhound and Osisu.
From Hong Kong: G.O.D, Chiu Kwong-Chiu and Edge Design.
Perhaps because the Author is a Singaporean, i feel that he tends to be a bit subjective when it comes to Singapore. His perspective on Singapore design seems to be on the negative side as to compare with Thailand or Hong Kong; which on my point of view not very true. Hence, i hope readers will be more objective when they are reading the book.
