Singapore Designer: Mike Tay
Cultural Inspiration Like many design lovers, this pattern was born from an enduring fascination with the beautiful handmade tiles found along the 5-foot ways of old shophouses in Emerald Hill, Katong, Little India, Kampong Glam, Chinatown and beyond. A window to the past, this pattern celebrates the period when things were handcrafted with passion and patience. It also evokes fond memories of sun-filled mornings when, as kids, we would enjoy playtime with our neighbours and infuse the 5-foot ways with laughter — when sharing was the hallmark of communal spaces.
