THINKING ALOUD / EDITOR'S NOTE
In this issue, we look at the retention and creation of places that connect us deeply to our past and our future. We also look at how the design of everyday spaces in neighbourhoods is evolving in contributing to our sense of place and home.
Known for designing memorials and cultural institutions, we speak to architect Daniel Libeskind to understand what it takes to design core places of culture and heritage.
We celebrate the many individuals who contributed to 30 years of Singapore’s conservation journey since 1989.
Youths tell stories of food, friendship and personal ties around heritage buildings through films.
From care facility to home and community space, designers and experts are exploring new nursing home design typologies.
