Living The Dream

The last two years have been lean on T international design showcases, most of which have gone hybrid or complete virtual due to the pandemic. Borders have been opening up this year, but some shifts are here for a permanent stay. We asked Edwin Low, founder of Supermama, one of the few who kept showcasing and promoting local design and design talents internationally, to share his observations on the international design landscape.

TELL US MORE ABOUT YOUR MILAN DESIGN WEEK SHOWCASE THIS YEAR.

We presented in last year's edition and this year's June one. The key for Supermama this year is to introduce as many different fields of Singapore creatives as possible. The idea is to show the diversity of our local talents. In our New Dimensions showcase, we had Serial Communications, who worked on our AR, metaverse design, five illustrators to work on our Merlion Mambo collection, co-designing with artists with disabilities for our Breathing Batik collection and many more in our showcase.
