Bras Basah Complex The Centre of Books and Arts
managed by Bras Basah Complex Merchants Association. Bras Basah Complex was completed in 1980.

In the early 1980s, Bras Basah Complex hosted small-scale Xinyao recitals and performance which were immensely popular and drew large crowds. During its peak, there was an event taking place almost every Saturday at the complex. There were also other arts and culture-related activities such as book fairs and art exhibitions which helped to attract customers. Bras Basah Complex certainly flourished in its early years. Book collectors, students and bargain hunters looking for second-hand books to save a bit - all of them knew that Bras Basah Complex was the place to go to.

Lamitak City Grand Opening – Bringing New Life to Bras Basah Complex!

On 24 September, five of our Bras Basah Complex Merchants’ Association committee members and three representatives from Heritage SG were honoured to attend the grand opening of Lamitak City, celebrating Lamitak’s 25th anniversary!

Since POPULAR Bookstore relocated to Levels 4 and 5, large sections of Levels 2 and 3 had been closed for almost a year while Lamitak carried out extensive renovations. During this period, the quieter floors affected foot traffic and the overall business atmosphere at Bras Basah Complex.

Now, with the opening of Lamitak City, Levels 2 and 3 have come alive again! ✨

It is truly heartening to see more visitors returning and new energy flowing through the complex.
especially happy to see this positive transformation!

A major company like Lamitak brings not just business opportunities, but also fresh energy, confidence and hope to our beloved Bras Basah Complex.

A big thank you to Lamitak for the kind invitation, warm hospitality and beautifully prepared goodie bags!

Congratulations on your 25th anniversary, Lamitak! Thank you for bringing new vibrancy to Bras Basah Complex!

GRAF VON FABER-CASTELL
Classic Magnum — 265th Anniversary Edition

✨ 265 Years of Heritage. A Legacy of Craftsmanship.

Celebrating 265 years of Faber-Castell, the Classic Magnum 265th Anniversary Edition pays tribute to a remarkable legacy of craftsmanship, innovation and timeless design.

Limited to just 480 pieces worldwide, this special edition brings together precious natural materials and refined metalwork in a writing instrument created for discerning collectors and lovers of fine writing.

The barrel is crafted from finely fluted Pernambuco wood, prized for its distinctive natural grain and warm, rich tones. Complementing the wood are platinum-plated metal fittings, lending the pen an elegant contrast while reflecting Graf von Faber-Castell’s signature understated sophistication.

Every detail carries the spirit of this milestone anniversary. The clip ring bears the engraving “Anniversary Edition – 265 Years Faber-Castell”, while an individually engraved serial number marks each pen as part of this exclusive edition.

Completing the Classic Magnum is a handmade, Magnum-sized 18-carat bicolour gold nib with an iridium tip, bringing together traditional craftsmanship and the enduring pleasure of writing by hand.

More than a fountain pen, this anniversary edition celebrates 265 years of history through the art of fine writing — a timeless expression of heritage, material excellence and enduring design F**k Hing Trading Co

Sunday, 7 PM at Bras Basah Complex — unusually quiet tonight…

Not sure if it’s due to the F1 weekend, the recent haze, or simply because it’s Sunday and many shops have already closed, but Bras Basah Complex feels especially quiet tonight, quite different from usual.

Walking through the empty corridors and central plaza, I couldn’t help but capture these moments.

Thankfully, Jack’s Place is still brightly lit, bringing warmth, life and a welcoming atmosphere to the complex.

Sometimes, I truly feel that while bookstores, art and culture give Bras Basah Complex its unique identity, F&B businesses also play an important role in keeping the entire complex lively and vibrant.

Where there is food, there is light. Where there is light, there is life. And where there is life, there is hope! 🌟

Every shopping complex has its busy and quiet moments. A quiet evening does not mean it has lost its vibrancy.

❤️ My sincere wish is for every merchant at Bras Basah Complex to continue showcasing their unique strengths, attracting more customers and enjoying better business.

A thriving complex takes everyone’s effort. Together, we can bring more energy, vibrancy and visitors to Bras Basah Complex!

Tonight may be quiet, but the lights are still shining, and so is our hope!

To all our merchants at Bras Basah Complex, let’s keep going and growing together!
