The event was well attended by both the Singapore community and the UK public.
Peter Murray, London Festival of Architecture Founding Director also made an
appearance at the event.
This event was in celebration of the launch of Uniquely Singapore? a generi-City
project web site.
Most of the correspondents have identified generic spaces which revealed a certain
degree of specificity and 'unique-ness' in each city (London and Singapore) during
the presentation; while questions on the validity of spaces selected for comparison
and what entails a 'unique' space in the analysis were raised during the discussions.
