Casual Poet

You’ll find a myriad of knick-knacks in this nook, from magazines like Wallpaper* and Believer to independent handmade ’zines, animal-shaped rubber bands and even utensils. Located on the third storey of a shophouse along New Bridge Road, this new bookstore would appeal to those who are into Japanese aesthetics (read: it’s cutesy). It also has an online store…but if you’re looking to actually buy books, Casual Poet might be a little too casual.
