SHAPING SINGAPORE THROUGH URBAN DESIGN
Since its inception, the Centre for Liveable Cities’ (CLC) research in urban systems has unpacked the systematic components that make up the city of Singapore, capturing knowledge not only within each of these systems but also the threads that link these systems and how they make sense as a whole. The Centre’s Urban Systems Studies (USS) series has been and continues to be scoped to venture deep into the key domains identified under the Singapore Liveability Framework, attempting to answer two key questions: how Singapore transformed itself into a highly liveable city over the last five decades, and how Singapore can build on its urban development experience to create knowledge and urban solutions for current and future challenges relevant to Singapore and other cities through applied research.
In addressing these questions, the Centre recognises that while public policy and urban planning decisions have been critical in shaping Singapore’s urban development, the physical manifestation of these in the built environment has also been guided by the conscientious practice of urban design.
Shaping Singapore through Urban Design aims to explore urban design in Singapore through three case studies of various scales and in areas of varying functions. These include Bedok Town Centre, one-north, and Singapore River.
With the Centre’s mission to distil, create, and share knowledge on liveable and sustainable cities, this publication hopes to make the development story of urban design in Singapore synthesised and available to other cities. I wish you an enjoyable read.
