Singapore Architect

With the concept of ‘embracing nature’, the factory integrated locally sourced bricks, and passive strategies to give the factory typology a fresh new look. The industrial area has a common image as a place that is dull and dirty. In contrast, this factory showcases how the common red brick can generate an interesting aesthetic.

Through passive environmental means and green spaces, the factory provided a new typology that is economical, sustainable and provides an enjoyable working environment for the workers. This design is envisaged to be replicated in future expansion of the factory space, and also to encourage other factory designs to be more explorative with aesthetics and sustainability in mind.
