Look inside the book

Filled with twenty images of neighbourhood shops, restaurant kitchens and other sights commonly experienced in our daily grind, this first in a series of colouring books focusing on life in Singapore reminds us that there is much of our everyday that we can preserve and cherish. With each page ready to colour and frame, Blks & Nos. captures the familiar spirit of the Singapore heartlands with scenes painstakingly traced by the masterful hands of award-winning illustrator Koh Hong Teng, waiting to be brought to life by you.

Printed on high quality paper, the pages in this book can be individually removed and framed.
