As I stood at the threshold of the Raffles Boutique, bathed in the soft radiance of a Singaporean sunset, my heart swelled with profound pride and joy. It was an exquisite moment – the culmination of a year of collaboration and creativity, perfectly timed to coincide with the prestigious F1 Grand Prix in Singapore, spanning from September 11th to 18th, 2023.

The Co-Branded Design: "Resplendence Within"
"Resplendence Within" is not merely a co-branded design; it is an artistic masterpiece. Its cover boasts an ethereal portrayal of the entire façade of Raffles Hotel, aglow from within and framed by the iconic Travelers Palm and Frangipani trees. This captivating artwork is meticulously transferred onto textured vegan leather, enveloping the A5 hardcover notebook. With our signature thread binding and double silk ribbons, each notebook becomes a symphony of tactile luxury.
Inside, champagne-colored, acid-free pages provide a canvas for your thoughts, while golden-hued fly pages bear the distinguished Raffles Hotel logo. This notebook is more than a keepsake; it's a work of art, a journey into the mood-filled essence of Raffles Hotel, captured like no other.
