Singapore Architecture Awards – SIA Prize
The Singapore Institute of Architects (SIA) has announced the winners of the SIA Architectural Design Awards 2022, the industry’s most prestigious awards programme honouring the best projects that exemplify excellence in architectural design.
This year, two projects were named “Design of the Year”, the highest distinction in the Awards.
A total of seven Design Awards and nine Merit Awards were selected from a shortlist of 23 projects by renowned firms and emerging practices alike, all of whom have presented outstanding design quality.
The 21st cycle of the Awards shone the spotlight on projects that demonstrated responsiveness to new design sensibilities, environmental sustainability and well-being for its users and inhabitants during the Covid times. This year, two projects were named “Design of the Year”, the highest distinction in the Awards. A total of seven Design Awards and nine Merit Awards were selected from a shortlist of 23 projects by renowned firms and emerging practices alike, all of whom have presented outstanding design quality.
Architect Melvin Tan, President of SIA and Awards Jury Chair commented: “This year, the jury felt strongly that it was deserving of a dual award for Design of the Year. MeyerHouse won the hearts of the jury with the skilful abstraction of complex residential development requirements to produce a deceptively simple form. We also want to commend A Brick & Mortar Shop for its sensitive and emotive design birthed with a controlled and simple palette.”
