Established in 1983, the SIA Architectural Design Awards are the Institute’s highest recognition for excellence in architectural design. Safdie Architects’ Jewel Changi Airport previously received an SIA Architectural Design Award and was named Building of the Year in 2020.
“It is a great responsibility to design for a large corporation, in this case one of Asia’s largest consulting firms, Surbana Jurong. We believe architecture has the ability to shape culture. Here, we sought to place workplace and nature side by side, creating an environment where the two continually inform and enrich one another. This relationship creates the conditions for a more connected, open, and generous workplace.”
