In the Singapore culture of all things new and instant, architecture balances delicately ? often precariously ? over history, built resources, and sustainability. There is little hesitation to demolish existing buildings to make way for new erections, especially in the context of private houses where new erection is often a non-decision, but an obvious answer. The client?s design brief was to demolish the existing house for new dream house; exemplifies the aspiration of many typical house owners. The design of this house begins by convincing the client to redefine his concept of a dream house.
