Meet Bianca Gill, our first registered architect. At the age of 7, she knew that she wanted to be an architect. Who influenced her and how did an SUTD experience give her an edge in her career? Find out as she also shares what’s her vision and advice for aspiring architects. Learn more about our Architecture and Sustainable Design programme – asd.sutd.edu.sg

How can we preserve the memory of the city through our monuments, while making space for new life and growth? How can technology allow us to experience a monument more fully, introducing us to its living history, and helping us imagine its future? In this Sustainable Design Option Studio, we apply these quandaries to the Tanjong Pagar Railway Station, a Singaporean National Monument sited at a crucial junction for the future of the Singapore Greater Southern Waterfront.

This studio was led by Asst. Prof. Peter Ortner and Assoc. Prof. Yeo Kang Shua, in collaboration with National Heritage Board and Singapore Land Authority and renowned technology company Dassault Systemes.

Assistant Professor Peter Ortner gives a campus tour on the places of significance to the Architecture and Sustainable Design pillar, joined by Associate Professor Bige Tuncer, Associate Professor Yeo Kang Shua and Assistant Professor Carlos Banon, the creators of some of these iconic structures on campus, such as the large scale 3d printed Time Capsule and Chinese House donated by renowned actor Jackie Chan.

Asst. Prof. Carlos Banon features in the 6th episode of #designspottingsg​. This episode brings viewers through the inspirations behind Prof Carlos’ designs and his works at Airlab, a multidisciplinary space where architecture, science, technology and the arts meet to create products, systems and spaces that address sustainability. The video also features AirMesh by Airlab, the world’s first architectural structure made of 3D printed components in stainless steel.

Multiplicity tells a story of how ASD students, through their architectural education in SUTD, have found ways to bring their ideas to reality through innovation and technology. It brings together projects by students for whom the concept of multiplicity in its many forms provide an avenue for architectural representation. This mixed reality exhibition celebrates the myriad of possibilities students can bring to the urban environment, featuring works from the B.Sc(ASD) and M.Arch graduates.

Gradshow 6: Multiplicity is part of 2021 Asia Pacific Architecture Festival and Dezeen Digital Student Showcase.

A city of distinct parts – separate yet bound together through a common intention: a better world by design.

Metropolis, the theme of the fifth installation to ASD’s Grad Show intends to showcase the unique designs our cohort has produced over the past 3 years. Rather than display them separately, a common island in the centre of the gallery combines the different projects into an eclectic cityscape. The strength of a metropolis comes from the variety in typologies present, and ours is no different.

This showcase is presented by ASD Class of 2019.

In attempting to replicate the conditions for designing a droneport, students tap into the power of augmented reality to inform their designs. The video was produced as part of their assignment for course Augmented Design taught by Lecturer Jason Lim and Option Studio: Coastal Droneports led by Assistant Professor Peter Ortner.

Future Housing designs by our SUTD ASD students are being featured at the HDB’s Designing for Life Exhibit!
You will find our student’s work at https://thefutureofhousing.wordpress.com/author/peterortner/

The exploration of the future of housing stemmed from the challenge of PM Lee during a National Day Rally on how the question of climate change and sea water level rise can be confronted. The students’ were given the opportunity to imagine a sustainable Polder Island and the possible life in it, along the East Coast of Singapore. This coincided with the celebration HDB’s 60th anniversary.

This studio explores the unlikely cohabitation of the architecture of the drone port and the coastal landscape dedicated to ecology and leisure. This cohabitation need not be conflictual; indeed, we expect to find unexpected and productive overlaps that protect ecological continuities and provide efficient infrastructure for new systems of drone delivery.

Ryan, current M.Arch student and director of Gradshow 5: Metropolis tells us what is so special about the exhibition his team put out in celebration of their completion of the B.Sc programme at SUTD.

Nabila, an M.Arch alumnus, talks about her thesis project and what it meant when it won the prestigious international Coup de Coeur Award in the category “Architecture and Issue of Sea Level Rise” Leonardo da Vinci promotion, for her master thesis project ‘A Living Organism’.

Amidst the pressing issue of rising sea levels, Professor of Practice Eva Castro from SUTD’s Architecture and Sustainable Design Pillar explains how her research lab, Form Axioms is looking into designing sustainable designs for both the present and future.

The studio establishes foundations for architectural design through three projects that build in scope and complexity to have students engage issues of 3-dimensional geometry and drawing, space and component aggregation, ordering systems, structure, circulation and narrative, and tectonics.

Professor Erwin Viray and Assistant Professor Carlos Banon share what students at Architecture and Sustainable Design, Singapore University of Technology and Design do. This sharing was done as part of the Admissions Outreach talk on 30 Nov 2019.

Sketching is a way of communication and expression. Sketching architecture is a way to understand and record our spatial environment. Urban Sketching is designed to equip students with fundamental sketching skills with a focus on the urban fabrics and landscapes. Course Instructor Ar. Tia shares about the Urban Sketching course at Architecture and Sustainable Design, Singapore University of Technology and Design.
