The latest Issue of The Singapore Architects Magazine Issue 9 featured DP Architects exhibition which took place between 12 August and 29 September. It also gave an in depth review of Our Tampines Hub.
A Common Line, One Global Studio was the running theme of the exhibition in celebration of DP Architect’s 50 years of design journey. The exhibition displayed 37 reconstructed models showcasing the breadth of DP’s portfolio. The magazine described the experience as “stunning with various inventive installations” and recognised that by sharing the people and design philosophy behind the projects the exhibition offered “much parallel benefit to the greater architectural fraternity.”

In addition, reviewing Our Tampines Hub in depth, The Singapore Architect views the project as a one-stop-shop of civic, recreational, institutional and public service functions appended with a retail basement. It also looked into the building’s programmatic arrangement, multiple stakeholders, façade and form as well as the organisation of the various programs.
“..this stunning urban machine can draw such crowds and brim with life is perhaps a sign that it has nailed a secret urban formula.” – The Singapore Architect, 2017
