UNBUILT

This feasibility study explored converting a 30 year-old vacant school campus into a temporary urban adventure centre for youths to complement the outdoor outward bound course currently located at Pulau Ubin. The design challenge was to take the formerly inward-looking institution building and create an authentic, welcoming and attractive environment where youths and instructors can engage through team-building programs.

The key areas of upgrading included enhancing the main entrance drop-off, converting the canteen into a 350-pax auditorium and transforming the internal courtyard into an urban adventure aerial course by incorporating the surrounding building and nature into the course. Recognising that learning can occur anywhere, classrooms and corridors are renewed into informal customisable learning spaces.
