Ti Ti was a re-branding exercise for a local peranakan shop. The motivation behind the work was to help the local shop attract a younger crowd to look at their wares.

​

With that in mind, I named the project "Ti Ti" which means small bridge in Malay, as it was conceived with the hope of bringing the old and new together.

​

One of the key artefacts of the Peranakan culture is the beaded slippers. Hence, this was a consideration when the graphics for the project was created. As seen in the postcards, one side represented the beaded quality of the slippers while the other side a more modern graphic of the same flower.

​

The flower used in pretty much the whoel project is the peony a flower used in many Peranakan wares as it symbolises peace and prosperity
