dc.description.abstract | The centre is: • a response to the kind of buildings that house industrial processes in Singapore. For general industries, they are mostly single or double storey sheds located in designated industrial estates. For lighter industries, regardless of the processes that take place inside, the buildings would unanimously take the form of a box enclosed on all four sides that seems oblivious to the surroundings. It allows little or no interaction between the people inside and outside. This is especially evident at the interface between an industrial area and a residential area; where the industrial building appears cold and stark. • an investigation of how daily living processes and industrial processes may be integrated through articulated architecture and appropriate urban strategies; without compromising the quality of space and facilities needed for daily living and the efficiency required of industrial processes. When these two are brought together, the issue of the quality of the environment surrounding arises. It must be maintained at a level that is suitable for human daily existence. • an experiment of a new-type architecture that opens up to the public and responds to the surrounding urban landscape. It allows the public to come into close contact with the industrial processes that are normally hidden away either in enclosed 'boxes’ or in the industrial estates. In fact the centre entices the public to come and understand the industrial processes at a more personal level and thus disintegrating the boundary between 'workplace’ and 'home'. The synergy between the two opens up possibilities for a new form of urban environment. | |
