Buro Ole Scheeran has won an award in the Mixed Use Architecture category with DUO in Singapore.
DUO, completed in 2018 and already widely recognized as a key addition to Singapores multifaceted skyline, has won the Best Mixed Use Architecture Award by the Asia Pacific Property Awards. The 2019/2020 winners were announced at an awards ceremony in Bangkok on May 15.
“DUO is about a sense of urban responsibility,” says Ole Scheeren, principal of Buro-OS. “It shows how architecture can become a tool of reconciliation within an otherwise disparate and fragmented urban context. The project repairs a broken piece of the city and celebrates public life as the central quality of a socially responsible urban environment.”
