Uniquely Singapore? discussion has arrived on the shores of Singapore

After several discussions and an official project launch in London, the Uniquely Singapore? discussion has arrived on the shores of Singapore last Saturday 7th August at makk architects on 17 Woking Road in Portsdown area.

Several pertinent points were raised during the session, including the apparent differences in the housing typology of typical public housing in Singapore and social housing in London, the increasing lack of civic spaces within the city centre and the gentrification of industrial practices versus the gentrification of industrial spaces in Singapore and London respectively.
Stay tune for the final outcome of our discusssions during our exhibitions in London during the London Design Festival in September and in Singapore during the Archifest in October.
