The context and the traditions associated with contemporary forms and ideas developed by WOHA is in Singapore. Its School of the Arts of Singapore (completed October 2010) is a special school for visual and performing arts. The design strategy creates two horizontal layers visually connected, a public communications space below (which contains several rooms) and a controlled interaction space above (which contains naturally ventilated classrooms and studios).
This approach solves the twin objectives of porosity and communication and a safe learning environment. The Met, Bangkok (completed December 2009) examines the possibilities of high-rise living in the tropics. Instead of adopting the models developed in temperate countries, with a strong separation between inside and outside, this project explores how aspects of housing tropical low may be used to create outdoor spaces to inside in the sky.
