Issue : In recent years, Singapore’s population has become one of the most physically inactive in Southeast Asia. There has been a rise in concern for health, and Singaporeans are worried that they will become less mobile as they grow older. Today, most Singaporeans lead busy lifestyles and have a need for convenience. This worrying trend is set to continue due to lack of motivation to sustain a healthy lifestyle.
Design Intent : Creating a recreational hub in the ageing neighborhood, complimenting the Kallang Park Connector, to promote active living by getting families be involved in physical and social activities. The architecture interventions combine this intention with conservation of the existing spatial qualities and the atmosphere and the tone set by the proportions, spans and strong industrial character.

Design Strategy + Development Visual diagrams
15
Design Strategy The strategy is to use the adjacent park connector as part of the builidng circulation, and to construct the building as a hub for the daily park users. The aim is to create connection between the users within the building and the surroundings. This is achieved by implementing in-between spaces in which users are able to interact and experience different perspectives.
