Orchard Road Christmas 2016

The Christmas Light-Up along Orchard Road Singapore is one of the country's centrepieces during the season, delighting millions of shoppers and pedestrians with a whimsical ballet of lights and colour. I was part of the team that conceptualised the theme and lighting design for 2016, entitled Spread Joy to Every Corner. The year's icon is an abstraction of a burst of joy, seen throughout the decor. On-ground interactive installations were also made, encouraging people to create joy together.
