01 INCONGRUOUS HARMONY
Inspired by Victorian Era, with the high neck collar and ruffled detailings on the sleeves, I wanted to create a set that would best bring out the mood of the garment. I was extremely inspired by Tim Walker and how he makes use of space and props to bring out the mood of the garments.

02 This photo series is part of a school assignment, Photography in which we had to choose a theme and create a concept around it. In this photo series, I wanted to show different subjects that are confident in who they are. Cheryl was styled based on a female icon that I really look up to, Audrey Hepburn in the 50s. Lighting, props, and the clothes were all carefully thought out to best portray the concept that I have came up with.

I AM

Beyond The Vines 333 Orchard Road, Mandarin Gallery #02-21, 238897
This store is located at the second floor of Mandarin Gallery directly outside the escalator. Mandarin Gallery is located in the heart of Singapore’s shopping belt, Orchard Road, Mandarin Gallery is home to some of the biggest international brands, as well as eclectic finds from independent local offerings. The target audience of Mandarin Gallery is of working adults aged 25-50 that has a higher spending power and seeks to get better quality goods.
Visual Merchandising Project
Through this assignment, we have to choose a local brand and redesign their space according to the brand image;
As the store features an open-back glass facade, the whole store can be viewed from the outside. The sofa takes up quite a large amount of space in the rather small store. The sofa itself might not be as impactful and visually appealing to others. By playing with height and depth of the display, it will be more interesting as well. The display should also be placed at the same place as the sofa as that spot is where the focal point of the entire store is. Secondly, their tote bags at the side of the changing room is not as visually appealing. INTERACTIVE AREA: By changing the tote bags with magazines or even Beyond the Vines’ brochure that fit the brand image, customers can also read it.

This was for one of our assignment called Space Planning whereby we have to create a retail shop while considering on space and dimensions in our design. This retail shop that I have created focuses on the emotional aspect of how space affects our actions.

Our brand is based on the quote “Less is More�. We wanted to create a collection that is casual and simple with carefully selected accents. It emanates a feeling of simplicity and relaxation. The colour palette of the brand would be muted with neutral shades. The brand is suitable for anyone who wants to look good with the least amount of effort.
