MANY Singaporeans would have recently returned from vacations around the world. They might have visited a familiar place, or ventured to a new destination. What’s certain is that thoughts would already be turning to where to head to this year.

In Friday’s edition of BT Lifestyle, we sift through the various reports to bring you the trends that will drive how people will explore the world in 2025. From the simple pleasures of stargazing and vintage shopping to male-bonding and multi-generational travel, there are adventures aplenty awaiting the globetrotting Singaporean.

In Design, we visit a shophouse belonging to prominent Hainanese immigrant, Wee Cheow Keng, which has been given a complete makeover.
