We're excited to share that 'Street of Clans' has been shortlisted for 'Design of the Year' for the President*s Design Award 2020.

"As I stood alingside the interactive installation my team and I built within the Koh Clan, lively conversations between the clan memebrs and members of the public unfolded around me. Nearly a year on, I still think abou tthe energy and impact of the festival - where else can you find such a beautiful marriage of cultural heritage and design?"

Pixie Tan, Creative Collaborator

"Being the champion placemaker for Chinatown, Singapore Tourism Board (STB) appreciates the efforts put in by OuterEdit in portraying Singapore beyond a modern metropolis. Street of Clans is a testament to houw a festival could contribute to an authentic Singapore story with rich heritage and culture."
