The GSofA Singapore will deliver BA (Hons) programmes in interior design and communication design in partnership with the Singapore Institute of Technology and Temasek Polytechnic.

The two-metre-long textile panel, inspired by Charles Rennie Mackintosh's dahlia design, has been commissioned to mark the opening of the GSofA Singapore.

It has been created by Alan Shaw from the Centre for Advanced Textiles at the GSofA. From September this year, the GSofA will teach years three and four of its Bachelor of Art programmes in Communication Design and Interior Design in Singapore.

Students in Singapore will also have the opportunity to spend four weeks in Scotland at the GSofA, working with their counterparts in the same programmes based in Glasgow.
