An alternative concept for housing in the 21st century city
Awarded Kenneth H. Murta Prize, University of Sheffield in 2001 for excellence in design and construction.

This is a project proposal for an alternative concept of living in the 21st century city; responding to issues emerged in relation to the new way of living in the city; exploring the issues of an ‘on-off city’, ‘front-back facades’ and ’sky-ground-surface’ an attempt to ‘light up’ the city centre at night and to revive the back facades.

an expression of building elements

an expression of linearity

farrer road upgrading project

without comments

Farrer Road Upgrading Project
A project by Yandi Andri Yatmo with Housing and Development Board, Singapore – completed 1999.
Awarded Singapore Institute of Architects 6th Architectural Design Awards 2001 Category E2- Retrofitting.

Upgrading means a better living for the precinct community. It will transform the precinct to better standard of the newer housing estate. Government will upgrade the precinct only if 75% or more of the flat owners are in favour of the upgrading. 75% or more ‘yes’ votes are necessary for the upgrading to proceed. In Farrer Road Project, 96% say ‘yes’: the best support for the last four years [ Strait Times, 20 April 1995 ].

Jury citation: The jury felt that this entry was more deserving than other similar schemes, for the designer’s effort in architecturally integrating the space-adding units with the existing blocks, and coordinating the new elevational composition such that new elements do not appear to be ’stuck-on’ [ Singapore Architect 211, 2001 ].
