Design News: 100 gaming seats in Secretlab and Lamborghini tie-up to go on sale worldwide on June 24

Chairs in Secretlab-Lamborghini collab to feature Dinamica upholstery

In the latest adrenaline-charged chapter of home-grown gaming chair brand Secretlab’s partnership with Italian luxury marque Lamborghini, 100 limited-edition ergonomic gaming chairs will go on sale starting from midnight on June 24.

Each chair has a serialised badge numbered from one to 100.

The new collection, called Secretlab for Automobili Lamborghini Pinnacle Superleggera, is a collaboration between Secretlab and the House of Sant’Agata Bolognese.

The House refers to Automobili Lamborghini, the Italian luxury sports car manufacturer founded in 1963 by magnate Ferruccio Lamborghini, and based in the town of Sant’Agata Bolognese in Italy.

“Supperleggera” means “super light” in Italian, a nod to Lamborghini’s use of lightweight materials for shaving off excess weight to boost its cars’ speed.

This is the fifth chair in a multi-year collaboration which began in 2022, and builds on the successes of previous global launches.

The chairs bear Secretlab’s ergonomic features and Lamborghini’s signature Y-shaped motifs. They are also upholstered in a specially treated material called Dinamica, made from non-woven suede and used in high-end luxury sports cars.

At the crown of each chair is a custom-forged carbon top plate crafted to echo Lamborghini’s “Forged Composites”, an innovative composite material engineered for strength, rigidity, and lightness. 

Info: This is the first batch in the Automobili Lamborghini Pinnacle Superleggera collection. The limited-edition chair is priced at $2,099. To register interest and view the designs, go to

The Fullerton Heritage ties up with artist Yip Yew Chong on 32m mural

Step into a picture-postcard world where Singapore’s sepia-tinged scenes of the 1960s and 1970s spring to life at the former General Post Office building, now The Fullerton Hotel Singapore.

To mark Singapore’s 60th year of independence (SG60), The Fullerton Heritage team is collaborating with Singapore artist Yip Yew Chong for Postcard Stories, a 32m mural that brings the precinct’s nostalgic scenes to life along One Fullerton’s Seaview Channel walkway.

The installation seeks to foster a deeper appreciation of Singapore’s heritage, encourage exploration of The Fullerton Heritage precinct and spark a sense of collective identity.

Yip will paint the scenes live on site during the first two weeks of July, offering rare behind-the-scenes glimpses into his techniques and storytelling approach.

Mr Gino Tan, country general manager of The Fullerton Hotels and Resorts, says: “The Fullerton Heritage precinct is steeped in history, and there is no better time than SG60 to reflect on the journey that has shaped our nation.”

The installation’s four scenes – Change Alley’s bustling trade; the historic General Post Office’s role in connecting people; the iconic waterfront featuring boatmen and labourers; and the transformation of the Esplanade and Merlion Park – aim to capture Singapore’s evolving cityscape.

The mural is Yip’s personal memory, interpretation and imagination of the place.

“By recreating the life and spirit of these scenes, I hope visitors can feel like they’ve walked right into old postcards,” he says. “While the seniors reminisce, the young, tourists and those who have never seen these scenes before can learn about these places, their stories and the larger Singapore story.”

Info: The Postcard Stories exhibition is on from July 14 to Sept 30. The free exhibition is at One Fullerton’s Seaview Channel, along the walkway between Shake Shack and OverEasy. Catch the live mural painting from July 2 to 13, from 11am to 7pm. Go to

West Mall unveils its vibrant community hub makeover

West Mall at Bukit Batok Central has revealed its new look after a two-year refurbishment. The neighbourhood hub, built in 1998 close to Bukit Batok MRT station and bus interchange, launches new features such as a basement wing called Eat@W, an outdoor plaza and improved amenities for the family.

Its owner, Singapore Land Group Limited (SingLand), announced the reopening on June 20 after the completion of the mall’s asset enhancement initiative.

The redesign goes beyond aesthetics to create an engaging lifestyle hot spot for Bukit Batok residents as well as the growing Tengah neighbourhood estate near the mall.

Ms Goh Poh Leng, head of commercial at SingLand, says it was an opportune time to enhance the hub to better serve more residents.

“The asset enhancement has introduced a wide array of dining and retail options with the addition of Eat@W,” she says. “Other highlights include a weatherproof outdoor public space and expanded library facilities which will be unveiled in the first half of next year. Together, we have created an inclusive place at West Mall where people can gather, connect and share memorable experiences.”

The mall’s new basement wing showcases more than 20 food-and-beverage and retail options spread across 22,000 sq ft of net lettable area. There are also new dining concepts such as Singapore’s first Lao Ma Ban Mian, which serves speciality Taiwanese noodle dishes, as well as Gochiya, which offers teppanyaki.

The open plaza on the ground floor has been transformed into a sheltered community space, designed for activities such as mass workouts and seasonal celebrations.

Info: West Mall has a month-long celebration lined up for residents and visitors. Shoppers can enjoy family-friendly activities, shopping deals and a lucky draw with $20,000 worth of prizes to be won. Go to
