05 The Golden Mile & The Linear City Year: 2019 Semester: Y1S1 Typology: Visionary modernist architecture Featured in SEAM Space Singapore Exhibition Graded as top work in cohort for the semester
The work offers a unique perspective of The Golden Mile while paying homage to the vision of Singapore’s pioneer architects, through the juxtaposition of what once was an architectural possibility and the reality of its actual outcome. It sheds light on the idealistic conception of a utopian imagination; the left being a fantastical creation of an ambitious linear city (which was to be named The Golden Mile Stretch) influenced by Japanese metabolism, where its interlinked multipurpose spaces are self-sufficient and vibrant with life. The right, however, is
a
singular
Golden
Mile
Complex
standing amidst skyscrapers and rapid urbanization, an emblem of a city corridor of tomorrow ultimately left unrealized.
