Bras Basah Complex
Afternoon photowalk exploring stacked bookstores and Brutalist geometry before a calm CHIJMES cool-down.
Our group took over the kopitiam corner at Bras Basah Complex, comparing film presets before heading upstairs to chase light shafts.
We played with Brutalist lines, mirrored bookshop windows, and candid lifts as the complex buzzed with weekend shoppers.
Crossing over to CHIJMES, we settled into the courtyard bar for cold drinks and an impromptu photo review on everyone's phones.
Walk Highlights
- • Architectural geometry studies inside Bras Basah Complex stairwells
- • Reflections and ambient portraits in second-hand bookshops
- • Late afternoon wind-down drinks across the road at CHIJMES
