What brought you to Singapore, how long have you been in practice there?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nigel arrived to work on Circle Line in 2001 and Sau Kei relocated from Sydney in 1997 after being offered a job just before the Olympic boom.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been working in Singapore since, mostly on transit architecture, apart from 1 year in 2004 spent in Perth to design the Perth Underground & Esplanade Stations.
\nWe started our practice in January 2005 & haven\u2019t looked back since.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How much of your work is based in Singapore, and what makes Singapore a good place to practice?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Currently all our work is based in Singapore, all public projects; but in the past years, we\u2019ve done work in various parts of Australia, Middle East & Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Singapore has good regional & global connectively. It also has a good economic climate to establish and develop a company. Given our transit architecture expertise, we were able to obtain projects which we would not have been able to undertake elsewhere.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Could you give us an idea of the main places your projects have been built?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Singapore, Riyadh, Dubai, Qatar, Nigeria, Perth (Australia)<\/p>\n

What is the most significant project your practice has completed recently, or what project is the most important project in recent years?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The most significant completed project are the 2 titanium-clad extensions at the Asian Civilisations Museum, completed November 2015. Perth City Link , completed December 2013, was a milestone for us in terms of it\u2019s significance to the city and unlocking future development and urban connectivity opportunities. Our 2 interchange stations, Expo & Tampines on Downtown Line in Singapore, designed for complex development & urban integration in regional centres, have been our longest running projects since 2008 and due for completion next year.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Why does international membership of the Institute appeal to your practice?<\/strong><\/p>\n

To get connected with the international Australian architectural fraternity. Opportunity to showcase works.<\/p>\n
