DIS coming to its reality! SINGAPORE'S FIRST "DESIGNED IN SINGAPORE" BOUTIQUE!

A very good evening to all,

Thank you for believing in the movement that DIS is pushing forward. Here, we're pleasantly surprised that many have shown support to us. For that, we are really appreciative that so many of us (Singapore's very own designers & artists) believe in selling "innovative ideas" in Singapore, to Singaporeans and to visitors of Singapore. To those who are still wondering what DIS is all about, where are we located and how are we moving on, here you go;

WHAT IS DESIGNED IN SINGAPORE? Who are the people behind this scene? What is the main factor that is continually stirring the passion of these people? Firstly, we are not from the government body. We are supported and funded by Spring Singapore & Temasek Polytechnic. We are existing now because a proposal was written slightly more than a year ago. This proposal went through many ammendments and have gone through various panals of judges. It was a tough process.

So what do we gain? We will only gain when designers like you join us for a longer run. Behind DIS Retail Space, there is a Multi-Disciplinary Design Firm (DIS Consultancy). This firm provides all sort of design services to companies and individuals. How can all these be achieved and how does the whole system works? We will share with the designers that join us, or, upon request. :)

We are a group of designers (frontline and behind the scene) who strongly believe in Singapore Art and Design. We believe that local design is somewhere we can start to create a bombastic synergy.

We will be moving into our new office (not fully furnished yet) by the end of this week. Do feel free to drop by, but do give us a call first. As for the three divisions in our entire retail space, these are the updates:

OURspace:
NAFA's students are placing their sofa set, coffee table, etc in our space. Many pieces of lighting are filling up the space by the end of this week as well.

OURlifestyle:
Accessories are coming in strong and specially designed island display cabinet are in the process of factory manufacturing.

OURwardrobe:
Flling up really fast.

Painting (general layers) of the floor, ceiling and walls are currently proceeding before we move in. We are also in the mid of the renovation, inviting graffiti artists to "dress" up our walls.

So, till then! Our first launch will be during the end of this month (MAY)!
We'll keep you updated dudes.

CHEERS!
