Aezura is an artisan’s collective designed to create drops of intimacy within a commercial space, changing the dynamic of the dense urban fabric of Orchard Road. Pocket spaces are introduced to give exclusivity to the artisans’ spaces. Each pocket is an integration of programmes such as retail, workshop and landscape, creating a community within a larger embodiment. The building presents itself with a soft, delicate look, as its translucent exterior diffuses light into the interior spaces. The atrium, where the exhibition gallery is located, ties the spaces together. Users will discover communities as they journey within the building, experiencing the pocket spaces as a whole organism. Darch year 3 final year project, Artisans' Collective. Architecture portfolio.
