Right Business: What it takes to build a creative business around a dying craft

View descriptionShare

On this month’s The Peak special on The Right Business, we spotlight a story rooted in paper, thread, and purpose.

Yang Shihui, founder of Based Book Arts, is one of the last practicing bookbinders in Singapore, and she’s quietly building a business around a dying craft.

From running intimate bookmaking workshops to taking on bespoke commissions, Yang’s work is a form of quiet resistance against digital fatigue and mass production.

On The Right Business, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Zat, Editor-in-Chief, The Peak Singapore, on why Based Book Arts is a compelling example of how tradition and entrepreneurship can meaningfully coexist.
