Andrew Gn: Fashioning SIngapore and the World explores the life and work of one of Singapore's most successful designers. Three essays and over 100 works reveal the crosscultural influences that inform Andrew Gn's creative process, his focus on intricate craftsmanship, and his cultural identity as a designer. They reveal how, like Singapore, where Gn was born and bred, his designs bridge dichotomies of East and West, tradition and modernity, and the local and the global.
