Gracing the cover is St James Power Station. Following a restoration and refurbishment by W Architects in close collaboration with Studio Lapis, the almost 100-year-old national monument has been adapted into an office fit for the 21st century.

In the same issue, check out the hotel Capri by Fraser in Kuala Lumpur’s Bukit Bintang. Despite having a relatively compact site, it has a distinctive silhouette of angled glass façades, fins and floors that makes it stand out from among the surrounding high-rises. Another featured project is the Viettel Headquarters in Hanoi (by Gensler) that impresses with its unique massing and energy-efficient green roof.

Not to be missed either is a piece where four emerging interior designers (Janka Podbielski, Matthew Kek, Lam Jun Nan and Jay Liu) share their thoughts on where the industry is headed. This is the last in a series of stories published in collaboration with the Interior Design Confederation of Singapore over the first half of this year.
