A multi-sensory experience that invites participants to navigate everyday public services through sound, touch, and storytelling without sight. Set within a simulated hawker centre, it reveals barriers faced by persons with visual impairments. Through empathy-driven activities and co-creation, the programme inspires more inclusive and equitable design outcomes.
