Synopsis
There are 3,000 condominiums, 300,000 condominium homes and more than 1,000,000 dwellers; thousands of Architects and 3 big banks. Architects may propose to lead in the enhancement and transformation of those vast and vital assets for Singapore’s built environment.
SIA is focused in architecture but financing and caring of the built architecture requires attention.
Architecture has lost a great deal to the real-estate industry. For a start, Condominium owners should be supported by banks to develop their own properties, care and maintain their buildings in order to grow inclusiveness, community and sustainability.
In a bigger picture, finance is key – and Singapore is uniquely relevant.
Speaker
Ar. Tan Cheng Siong
Chairman, Archurban Group; Principal, Archurban Architects Planners Pte Ltd; F(L)SIA; FSIP
Some of his seminal works include the pioneer condominiums in Singapore, Pearl Bank Apartments and Pandan Valley, as well as the design and planning of DGP Jurong East in 1991 and Pasir Ris 21 in 1997. Internationally, Ar Tan introduced the concept of condominium housing to China.
Ar Tan is also responsible for promoting Skyland, Voluntary Conservation, plans to revitalise Kallang River and transforming waterways into “River Front Settlements”. In recent feedback, he proposed to Draft MP 2019 to include Community Connectors and Owner Development Plan for condominiums.
In recognition of his contribution, Ar Tan received the President’s Design Award in 2012, the SIA Gold Medal in 2013 and the Pioneer Architect Award in 2015.
