Merit Award
Singapore Pavilion, World Expo 2020, Dubai
The Singapore Pavilion is successful in telling Singapore’s story of overcoming physical limitations as a small island city-state to become a liveable, biophilic city of the future. It is an elegant structure consisting of naturally ventilated open-plan floor plates, supported by 3 numbers of 9-meter tall thematic cones. The Pavilion integrates lush landscape into every aspect of the design to celebrate Singapore’s homegrown green technology. The meandering canopy walk which cuts in and out of the cones and verdant environment, coupled with the various engaging content, gives visitors a rich and memorable experience. The Jury commends the high level of competence and co-ordination required to deliver a Pavilion befitting to represent Singapore on the world stage.
