F&B Outlet

F&B and retail outlets within a shopping mall require a Fire Safety Certificate (FSC) to be obtained before they can operate. The facility manager of the shopping mall will require the tenant/ operator to submit the FSC for their record.

Pagoda Street

These conserved shophouses are nestled right in the heart of the Chinatown Historic District. Overtime, the facade needs to undergo maintenance such as repairing of the intricate motifs and repainting.

Owners need to be careful when doing maintenance as URA Conservation approval is required before any works are carried out. Special mineral paints also have to be used instead of the usual emulsion paints.

Changi Hotel

Built in the 1930’s by the British Army, these buildings were part of a military base at Changi. It was subsequently used by the Singapore Army until it was returned to the Singapore Land Authority.

The Urban Redevelopment Authority has now required these buildings to be conserved and allowed it to be repurposed for hotel usage.

With a thorough refurbishment, the grand old dame has been brought back to life with modern amenities for people seeking a retreat in the lush surroundings away from the bustling city.

Richards

A detached house at the end of a cul-de-sac with the external grassy and verdant land along one side gently sloping higher.

The owners requirements for a large car porch to park four cars coupled with the authority requirement to keep 60% of the land unbuilt led to the concept for the house of raising the typical living room at level 1 to level 2.

This elevation of the living spaces allowed us to maximise the usable area. The indoor living spaces can now spill out to the large car porch roof for an extended outdoor living space. It also allowed the wind to flow through the main living space and views out to the lush greenery beyond the house.

Tiong Bahru

Original cooking stove & chimney preserved and repurposed into a wardrobe.

Tiong Bahru is one of the oldest housing estates in Singapore. The blocks of apartments were built in the 1930’s as public housing and has been conserved.

These pre war apartments with charming Art Deco facades has attracted young professionals looking for a hip residential estate close to the central business district.

We had the opportunity to work on one of these apartments revamping the interior while retaining some of the unique features of the apartment.
