Merit Award
Reconstruction of Twin Cinema Princess Theatres to A New 4-Storey Cinema in Bedok Town
This renovated commercial building represents a successful repositioning of an urban landmark, skillfully addressing a significant corner within the town centre. Despite a challenging typology and difficult site, the project impressively integrates landscape in the form of floating planters on the facade, focusing on a more human-centric scale and creating a positive impact on the junction. Commendably breaking away from the traditional "decorated box" design, the building fosters connectivity with its surroundings. The project's dedication to preserving and repurposing its existing fabric contributes to sustainability and celebrates architectural heritage. Overall, the awarded building stands as a testament to successful urban integration and contextually relevant design.
