Typography is often seen as a discipline bound to screens and studios, but this workshop offers a different encounter. In partnership with Death of Typography, a Singapore-based collective dedicated to the practice, research and exploration of type, the session brings letterform design into a tactile and immersive setting. Surrounded by the textures of our showroom, participants are invited to slow down and reinterpret what they see. Surfaces, joints, textiles and patterns become sparks for creativity, guiding each person to craft original letters shaped by their own perspective.

Death of Typography is committed to making type education accessible while deepening public understanding of its cultural significance. Through exhibitions, workshops and collaborations with industry, the collective has created a platform for designers and newcomers to engage with type as both craft and cultural practice. Led by Lee Qiu Wen, Sylvia Low and Wee Yen, it has become an important presence in Singapore’s design community, nurturing local talent and encouraging open dialogue around typography. No prior experience is required for this session, which emphasizes curiosity, observation and playful experimentation over technical expertise.

By the end of the workshop, each participant will contribute a handcrafted letter to a collective alphabet. The finished set will be printed in a 2026 calendar, an elegant keepsake that captures collaboration, creativity and the shared experience of discovering typography beyond the studio.
