The future of architecture and design is inseparable from that of our planet. For this very reason, architects are starting to adopt a more sustainable approach to their work, driven by a sense of urgency as well as a responsibility towards the environment.
One solution is adaptive reuse architecture-the practice of repurposing and breathing new life into existing structures, lending them a new use. This often ensures their lasting cultural heritage, and a strong connection to the landscape and the community.
In the spirit of celebrating adaptive reuse architecture, Tatler Homes Singapore brought together some of the brightest architects working in this space for a lively panel discussion at the V-Zug Singapore showroom.
The discussion featured the architects behind the winning projects of this year's Tatler Homes Design Awards' Best Adaptive Reuse category, which was conceptualised in collaboration with Swiss kitchen appliances brand V-Zug. They were Richard Hassell, co-founder of Woha Architects; Rene Tan, co-founder of RT+Q Architects; and Chio Wen Tian, principal architect at Chio Architects.
