Project Context
HEART IN A HEART features a variety of uses and locates jobs, shops, cultural landmarks, green spaces and transit stations within walking distance of housing.
CONCEPT: Housing in New Ghim Moh is one which extends Old Ghim Moh’s social center across New Ghim Moh and Beyond... by customising a housing checkerboard grid which alternates the old and iconic features of Ghim Moh with its new mixed-use developments.
The old strips are revitalised via the overlapping of modern but relevant programs, retaining the Old Ghim Moh charm and spirit. This overlapping of future and past Ghim Moh creates synergistic new public spaces that celebrate the intertwining of lives in Old and New Ghim Moh.
