Singapore’s multidisciplinary design chamber, the Design Business Chamber Singapore (DBCS), is set to showcase the designs of its annual Singapore Good Design Awards (also known as SG Mark) winners in its first-ever virtual exhibition, which will run from 1 September to 31 October 2021.

The NUS M.Arch Show 2021 showcases the thesis projects of the graduating Master of Architecture students from the National University of Singapore; a collection of bold questions and propositions displaying the expertise obtained in architectural education. A year-long undertaking, the thesis is an arduous yet joyful journey, where conversations, critiques and references gently nudge students towards certain contemporary and relevant trajectories, organically converging into communities of practice where the works collectively resonate with one another. Convergence occurs along five discursive threads, which form the five clusters of the show: “Critical Architecture”, “History & Heritage”, “Sociopolitics & Geopolitics”, “Technologies” and “Urbanism & Environments”. Each cluster is uniquely positioned to probe the limits of the discipline, and to respond to the demands of wider society.
