A dynamic creative community hub breathing fresh life into Chinatown's historic 1947 Rex Cinema. Preserving its raw concrete structure, exposed beams, and stepped auditorium floor, the revitalised space brings together indie culture and heritage. Its showstopper is BookXcess, an architectural labyrinth of floor-to-ceiling wooden bookshelves, flanked by artisan coffee shops, craft vendors, and art exhibitions.
Highlights
- Labyrinthine floor-to-ceiling bookshelves at BookXcess
- Raw industrial concrete architecture of a 1947 cinema
- Artisan food stalls, coffee shops, and creative pop-ups
