FrancFranc

FrancFranc is definitely my favorite place to shop in Japan. they have everything you need to spruce up any space.  I can spend hours at the store just looking at their products. only if they had FrancFranc in Singapore! 


heres some FrancFranc items from my home!

I learned from a former buyer of FrancFranc that it will be very difficult to open a Singapore branch for the lack of market and interest here. Japanese people, including myself, will spend extra money to get a 'cuter' product.  we do come from the land of Hello Kitty.  for example.... a bathroom mat, you can buy a very basic one for a good price, but i wouldn't mind spending much more if i can find a cool design in a color i like.  on the other hand, I think Singaporeans are much more practical and the cost will be a priority for many.  As a designer, I truly believe that surrounding yourself with creative/ well designed products as well as colors you like can really enhance your life, even if a tiny bit. I hope my blog can create some interest so one day  FrancFranc can branch out to Singapore!
