6. SUMMER RECORD



“ Here, we drink, we talk without restraints, we listen to records, and our intimacy is blissful. ”

Singapore / 2022

My theme is worship
I intend to create a vinyl house.  Let those melodious tunes lost in the year, in another form to be transmitted again.

Narrative
Vinyl records are the physical existence of sound, the grooves on the record  are the growth rings of sound.

Target Audience
Vinyl lover / Vinyl Collectors / People who want know about vinyl records.

50 Arab Street is located on Arab Street lies between Victoria Street and Beach Road in the Kampong Glam area, and was part of the Rochor Planning Area of Singapore’s cental region. When I visited the site, I felt that the street was very diverse and exotic, with many fabric stores, perfume stores and lighting stores, as well as many specialty restaurants. This street records a lot of culture and history, just like recording the age of the city, and each store has its own story. So my original intention of transforming this location into a vinyl record house was that I wanted everything to be recording, including the sound.
