Design Award

delight: Singapore Pavilion at Venice Biennale 2018

Design Award

The jury commended the Singapore Pavilion at Venice Biennale 2018 for being an exhibition design that exhibited multiple layers of ideas surrounding the narrative of architectural practice and living in Singapore, particularly on how to borrow space resourcefully.

 The design is investigative and inventive in its choice and use of materials. The assembly and disassembly of its parts enables it to have a life post-exhibition for use in education.

 The jury highly commended the project for its good effort in pulling together the many voices of those involved and achieving a delightful and sensorial exhibition with limited resources and accorded it a Design Award.
