Book City


There is a building in Bras Basah Road next to the National Library, known as Book City to the generations of Singaporean school children. Amongst the many book stores in that building, there is a cool book store called "Basheer Graphic Books" and they specialise in books on architecture, design (interior, landscape, fashion, product etc), art and craft and photography. They carry a very comprehensive range of such books and magazines and one can just spend hours browsing and getting lost in the dazzling array of design books in there.

There's also some cool products like lomo cameras, origami-making sets and a humorous set of real plywood stickers which you would stick on convenient locations like your mobile phone in case one needs to "touch wood" for superstitious reasons and one can't find wood conveniently! Next time you are in the area, remember to drop in to check out all the cool stuff in the book store.
