Starting the year off with some great shots of @bracuniversity by @prantography.
In the first image you see the building in its dense urban context - you also see the solar canopy that shelters the rooftop with its cricket green, swimming pool and running track.
The building is draped in greenery and porous to capture breezes that cool down the interior spaces without needing air conditioning.

As we near the end of 2024, we would like to thank our clients, consultants, partners, colleagues and friends for all their support this past year.
This year, we completed several major projects, including our digital business park, Punggol Digital District, and the Singapore Institute of Technology Campus Plot 1, which are key components of our Form Follows Systems Masterplan for Punggol. Additionally, we completed BRAC University in Dhaka, which embodies the principles outlined in our book, Garden City Mega City, and Forbes Residences in Perth, which redefines high-density housing for the Australian suburbs.
We have also been actively involved in cultural and community projects such as The Private Museum, the Tropical exhibition at the National Gallery, The Foundry, and the extension of the Enabling Village.
We wish everyone a peaceful and happy Holiday Season and a great start to the New Year! Our office will be closed from 25 December 2024 to 1 January 2025 and will resume operations on 2 January 2025.
2024 年即将结束, 我们由衷感谢所有客户、顾问、合作伙伴、同事及朋友们一直以来对我们的支持。
今年, 我们设计的几个大型项目陆续竣工。"榜鹅数码园区"及"新加坡理工大学校园1号地块"这两个项目充分体现了我们在榜鹅总体规划中所遵循的“形式追随体系”核心理念。位于孟加拉国首都达卡的"布拉克大学"项目则贯彻了在我们在《花园城市.巨型城市》一书中所总结的理论原则。而位于西澳城市珀斯的"福布斯公寓"项目，更是重新定义了澳大利亚郊区的高密度住宅模式。
此外，我们在这一年还参与了多个文化和社区类项目，如"私人美术馆"旧改项目、国家美术馆中的《热带》策展、非营利组织共享工作空间"The Foundry"项目，以及"新协立综合社区服务中心扩建"项目。
我们祝愿大家有个快乐、祥和的圣诞假期，并于新的一年有个美好的开始! 本所将于 2024 年 12 月 25 日至 2025 年 1 月 1 日 暂停营业，并在 2025 年 1 月 2 日 恢复运营。

From rendering to reality (2/2) - It’s always good to see the project come to life!
The rendering shows the water court and public concourse at @bracuniversity. The photos were taken just a week ago on a visit to Dhaka.
We can’t wait to see the plants to mature and cover the pillars.
The water courts help to cool down the breezes that are being guided through the building. This creates a very comfortable climate without air conditioning.
The innovative, sociable, and sustainable inner city campus embodies the sensitive integration of nature and architecture with tropical design strategies in response to the climate of Bangladesh.

Moving people at #bracuniversity.
Instead of having to endure long waiting times for crowded lifts, the students can also get around the building via escalators - catching some fresh air, people-watching and seeing the activity of all the social spaces.

We’re so happy to see how the landscaping is coming along at #bracuniversity!
The innovative and sustainable inner city campus of @bracuniversity embodies the sensitive integration of nature and architecture with tropical design strategies in response to the climate of Bangladesh.
The building is perforated with horizontal breezeways, has porous facades, and garden terraces. It is designed to breathe, with natural cross-ventilation and natural daylighting the tropical learning spaces are comfortable and enjoyable without airconditioning.
Landscaping is woven throughout the entire structure and shows the potential in multiplying greenery and open spaces within a dense urban site.
