It extends four conserved shophouses from 1936, adding a contemporary rear block. The design seeks to incorporate history, art and sustainability in delightful and effective ways within the envelope-controlled heritage property. The jury appreciates the contributions of this adaptive reuse project to the skyline, characterized by its moderate scale but highly complex volumetric composition. The architects create delightful spaces through the juxtaposition between old and new, allowing for fresh readings of the conserved building. Congratulations WOHA Architects on the award! 📷: Darren Soh, Jovian Lim, Hosanna Swee #SIAADA2024 #SIAADA #singaporeinstituteofarchitects #siamembers #sgarchitect #singaporearchitects #sgarchitecture #singaporearchitecture #architecturelovers #architectureawards
