The Local People was born from acknowledging that Singapore has more designers and artists than the few that are constantly in the limelight. The Local People online store serves as a platform for young brands, a step to carving out their place in the market.

We believe in quality, made-by-hand products stemming from self-motivation and quiet passion. We want to give the bedroom handicraftsmen and women an opportunity to offer their products to consumers who give equal importance to each stitch, silk-screened letter and carving.

As such, The Local People online store is our way of being the antithesis to the mass production-induced glazed attitudes that take quality for granted and at the same time, giving the next generation of craftsmen and women a big fat pat on the back.
