anotherbeautifulstory showcases stories about artists, artisans and craftspeople. We celebrate the stories about their commitment to their passions, through storytelling.
Waxing lyrically over coffee about our love for great espresso, design and films, our curious little gang was formed to seek out the stories about the people behind the things we were inspired by. We wanted to meet and listen to the unique and different stories various artists, artisans and craftspeople had to share about their work.

08. Adelene Koh - Dddots
dddots - Adelene Koh
In our latest episode, we speak to Adelene Koh, one of the few, if not the only, local hand bookbinders in Singapore.
In her words, “Making books is an art. Nothing beats holding a book in your hand, feeling its cover, turning its pages and even smelling the paper. When you write or draw into a journal, it is forever and leaves your touch in it. When you have a book that is handmade, you know that you are holding something that is made, with heart and soul, by a bookbinder.”
Follow us, as we go more in-depth into Adelene's simple life and her joy in making books.
