Compared to what’s going on in other parts of the world (the US Presidential Election, Samsung’s exploding Galaxy Note 7 batteries, the ongoing debate about singer Bob Dylan being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature etc), the past week in Singapore has been relatively quiet apart from the exciting news about Guns N’ Roses’ first concert here — which takes place next February. The other trending topic probably has something to do with making the most of small spaces (and we’re not talking about redecorating your home), but we’ll skip the details on that.
If you haven’t planned anything for the weekend, our stories on technology in dining, wine trends, the late Zaha Hadid’s furniture collection, and Aston Martin’s first powerboat are sure to keep you well-entertained in the comfort of your home.
