SPCA Shelter by the Water

submitted 2012

SPCA will have a new home at Sungei Tengah Road. The design proposal envisioned a series of ‘big-barn quality’ spaces, housed under low sweeping roofs, that caters to both human and animal needs. Visitors, staff and animals are cleverly separated yet visually connected. Spaces are bright and airy, with much of layout oriented towards the adjacent water body bordering the site for visual relief, thus stitching the immediate surroundings and building into an integrated experience for both humans and animals alike.
