Reflection :

In this session, I researched more on the different plays of Chinese Typography through 小红书 (Xiao Hong Shu a Chinese App) and Pinterest to find examples. It helps me greatly to gain inspiration for the posters I want to do. I also planned to visit the Singapore Chinese Cultural Museum to find out more if they played with any Chinese Typography or designs. I managed to go to Outram Park to explore the use of Chinese Typography in our daily lives, like on the streets, signage, and brand logo. brands names, etc. Later on, I visit the Singapore Chinese Cultural Museum, however, it was not what I expect it to be. I thought there would be more Chinese Typography used however, they had their own illustration and own style with very less play with Chinese Typefaces. The font used is a handwritten font for both their English and Chinese words. Although it was not what I expect it to be, I still learn a lot about Chinese Culture through the museum and understand Singapore Chinese Culture through their interactive tags. I also managed to do more posters, two of it is learnt from XiaoHongShu  (小红书) which I find very interesting to do. It is a design and effect I have never learned before during any of my curricula. I like this process of being to explore something I am interested in and trying it out on my own.
