People and Organisations.

There are no buildings without people and institutions. Many people and organisations are involved in shaping the modern built heritage of Singapore. Besides architects and designers, there are other individuals like builders, engineers, clients, patrons, writers, publicists, and advocates. Individuals often belong to different types of organisations. These organisations—both public and private—are key to the construction and destruction, maintenance and neglect of our modern built heritage. In this page, we celebrate those who have played important constructive roles in the past.
