Gelang Patah Old Street Welcomes the New Year with Creative Vitality from the Faculty of Arts and Design, Southern University College
During the 2025 Chinese New Year period, Gelang Patah Old Street will host a meaningful celebration, infusing the area with a lively festive atmosphere and enhanced community spirit. This event is meticulously organized by the team from the Faculty of Art and Design at Southern University College, and through innovative design themes, it aims to bring modern creativity to the traditional old street, encouraging participation from people of all ethnic backgrounds.
Angle Wong Shi Qi, a student from the Faculty of Art and Design, encouraged the public to carefully observe the details of the poster, which incorporates elements from Gelang Patah Old Street. Ong Chia Yong, another graduate, discussed the challenges of faithfully capturing the street’s unique characteristics, highlighting the importance of in-depth research. Current student Tey Zhi Qiang explained how the team continually refined the design to include elements from the three main ethnic groups, while maintaining a vibrant festive atmosphere that would resonate with a diverse audience.

The project aims to revive cultural heritage, inspire creativity, and foster greater community engagement.
The Southern University College Faculty of Art and Design team looks forward to deepening its connection with the community through this event, infusing Gelang Patah Old Street with fresh energy for the New Year. Everyone is invited to join and share in the festive celebrations.

海报设计暗藏巧思
南方大学学院艺术与设计学院应届毕业生黄诗琦(24岁)表示,活动海报融合了老街特有的元素与现代设计,包括不同民族的服饰、振林山手工包老字号的图案、楼上的窗户铁花等细节,同时以鲜艳色彩吸引年轻人目光。她呼吁民众留意海报细节,用全新视角感受老街之美。
另一位毕业生王严谊(25岁)分享了设计过程中的挑战,“为了忠实还原老街特色,我们花了大量时间研究资料和照片,希望保留每一个独特细节。” 郑志强(21岁)则指出,为兼顾三大种族元素与浓厚年味,团队在设计上不断调整,确保能让所有人感受到共鸣。
此外,团队还特别设计了天灯许愿板,邀请社区居民和游客留下新年期许,增添活动的互动与意义。
创新赋予童玩新生命
活动亮点之一,是将于2月8日举办的复古玩具创新展。南方大学学院艺术与设计学院的27名学生,将在老街的两间店铺内展示27款传统童玩新创设计。活动免费入场,完成闯关的玩家还有机会赢取传统童玩作为奖励。
活动负责人游亮辉高级讲师表示:“通过想象力和创造力,我们希望让传统童玩焕发新生命,同时吸引更多年轻人了解和传承这些文化宝藏。”
