The Singapore Mint

Role: Product Design Intern

At Singapore Mint, I contributed to the development of commemorative souvenirs celebrating Singapore Hawker Culture's UNESCO recognition. Through concept exploration, visual refinement, and product development, I learned how cultural narratives can be translated into commercially viable products. Working within a professional design team also gave me valuable insight into balancing creative exploration with production considerations and project objectives.

Iterative Design Process Developed and refined multiple design directions, responding to project goals and feedback throughout the design process.
