From Singapore to Singaporean: The Bicentennial Experience

Singapore to Singaporean: The Bicentennial Experience was dedicated to the remembrance of two hundred years of history that made a nation, with messages crafted, curated and devoted to its people. This two-part showcase beckoned with stimulating perspectives into history told in a variety of formats, bringing to life snippets of history going as far back as 1299.

From Singapore to Singaporean
 takes visitors on a journey through time to explore history as a series of visually audacious yet emotionally engaging adventures. Each act was conceptualised as a unique, exhilarating dive into Singapore’s past. Designed to resonate with visitors of all ages, the storytelling tone was intended to foster a participatory atmosphere and break the fourth wall, so that visitors would feel more like eyewitnesses, rather than simply passive observers.

The team set out to tell a story that would spark curiosity in people, and encourage them to embark on a journey of discovery.  

Split into five acts spread over two levels of the Fort Canning Centre, the hour-long experience reaches back over a thousand years in time. The prologue opens on a rain installation that reverses dramatically to symbolise the journey into the distant past. This sets the scene for the dramatic rise and fall of settlements and port-cities across South-east Asia. The opening is mirrored in an emotionally charged finale on a rain-soaked Padang, with dark clouds giving way to warm sunshine over the modern metropolis Singapore has become.

LTA Mobility Gallery

to inspire

Conceptualising a futuristic scene, a blue colour palette was selected, tying in LTA’s corporate colour and representing the depth of intelligence in their strategies.In order to envision the forward-looking approach of the group, imaginations of future bus concepts were set up, allowing a glimpse of the innovative ways we would approach city living.  

Beyond the exciting lifestyle to come for the public, the gallery reveals the depth of LTA’s workflow and the rail technicians working in the background of operations. To recognise the experience of ground crews, we explored the site from thirteen levels underground. Using this encounter, we delivered accurate details of the successful railway system across the visual production of the exhibits, documenting rare scenes of the individuals behind the show.
