Basheer Graphics
A specialist Bras Basah bookstore for art, design, architecture, fashion and visual culture.
Basheer Graphics is a specialist bookstore in Bras Basah Complex focused on visual culture. Its online catalogue and physical shop cover architecture, arts, fashion, photography, interiors, animation, game art, sketching, watercolour, design magazines and Singapore titles. It is especially useful for designers, architects, art students and visual researchers who need books that mainstream bookstores rarely carry in depth. Prices can run high for imported art and design books, but the range is one of the strongest in Singapore for this niche.
Basheer is the bookstore you visit when a normal shelf of art books is not enough. The strength is depth: monographs, design references, architecture books, magazines and visual inspiration that working creatives actually use. It also benefits from being in Bras Basah Complex, still Singapore's most practical book-hunting building. The honest trade-off is price. Many titles are imported specialist books, so impulse buying can get expensive. For design and visual culture, the curation justifies its place.
It is Singapore's strongest specialist bookstore for design and visual references, with a deep catalogue that serves students, professionals and serious hobbyists.
