In continuation with the theme of board game in my infographic, I wanted my zine to share the same fun and interactive element. Hence, came the decision to design an interactive zine that people can bring along with them as the explore the area.

I decided to narrow the scope of my zine to solely Everton Park, which Read more →

Hello everyone. So.. this whole zine project alludes to the previous infographic I did on Clementi, which main purpose was to allow people to discover decade-old gems around the neighbourhood. 🙂
