DORS heads east to i12 Katong with 40 of your favourite local brands while our flagship store gets a make-over.ย 

Despite the store refresh, DORS isnโ€™t slowing down. Weโ€™re headed to i12 Katong for a brand-new pop-up experience, opening 19 April, and weโ€™re bringing a little slice of Orchard Road (and over 40 local brands) along for the ride.ย 

Is the east sideโ€ฏreallyโ€ฏthe best side?โ€ฏWeโ€™re about to find out. Katong, with its blend of heritage, food, and laidback charm, feels like the perfect match for DORS. Itโ€™s a neighbourhood that knows how to hold history and trendiness in the same breathโ€”just like we do.ย 

At the pop-up, youโ€™ll find a tightly curated selection of some of our most-loved piecesโ€”designed, made, and inspired by life in Singapore.ย 

A Taste of What Youโ€™ll Find at the Pop-Up:ย 

ย 


A nod to one of Singaporeโ€™s most character-rich neighbourhoods, this bracelet is full of heritage charm. Inspired by the tiled walkways, Peranakan mosaics, and shophouse pastels of Joo Chiat,ย itโ€™s a subtle but striking piece that tells a story. Wear it as a reminder of home, or gift it to someone who needs a little bit of Singapore with them, wherever they are.ย

This candle smells like memory โ€” sun, salt, and the comfort of weekends at the beach. Itโ€™s an olfactory love letter to East Coast Park, with notes of sand, sea breeze, and that blissful feeling of beingโ€ฏjust far enough awayโ€ฏfrom the city. Light it up and bring a bit of the coast into your everyday.ย 


Some mornings need a little motivationโ€”and a lot of coffee. These socks say it so you donโ€™t have to: โ€œMore Espresso, Less Depresso.โ€ Made for comfort, designed for caffeine addicts, theyโ€™re a small but mighty mood booster. Whether youโ€™re powering through work or lounging with your third kopi, theyโ€™re here for it.ย 

And Thatโ€™s Just the Start...ย 

Our i12 Katong pop-up will feature an evolving line-up of goods from overโ€ฏ40 independent local brandsโ€”from wearables and wellness to lifestyle and home. Whether youโ€™re a longtime DORS devotee or just browsing for something new, youโ€™ll find pieces that speak to Singaporeโ€™s vibrant, ever-changing identity.ย 

While our Design Orchard space undergoes its refresh, our online store remains open with free shipping, so you can still shop our full collection from anywhere:โ€ฏdors.com.sg.ย 

Come by, say hi, and explore a refreshed DORS experience โ€” this time with east side flavour. Who knows, you might just leave convinced that yes,โ€ฏthe east side really is the best side.ย
