BluPrint - June 2017

Bu konuda

BluPrint is breaking down walls, all but inevitable at the dawn of cross-border practice. In this issue, we bring you inside stories of design and architecture projects around Asia. Design Systems crafts the total package—architecture, interiors, and branding strategy—of Hong Kong's enigmatic TUVE Hotel. Shanghai-based Neri&Hu; completes their first Philippine project, The Pig & Palm, inspired by the principal's hometown Cebu. Seshan Design references Mark Twain for an unconventional F&B pair in Kuala Lumpur, Huckleberry and Skullduggery. The spice trade and disco nights of Singapore's riverside roots inspire The Warehouse Hotel by Asylum and Zarch Collaboratives. Our First Principles section goes borderless too as we pepper the entire issue with design aphorisms. BluPrint Volume 3 2017 also includes projects by Arkinamix, Buensalido+Architects, Park+Associates, CRL Designs, Electrolychee, and Tad Ermitaño.
