“How to make a building stand out in a crowd of other buildings?”, “How to build under durian trees?” or “ How to build above MRT lines?” Founded by BC Ang and Wen Hsia Ang, the practice strives to find the right questions to ask for each problem they encounter.
They believe design is an intricate balancing act of utility, technology and emotions in its specific place. All condensed as a problem solving idea in equilibrium.
Their recent works include a house crafted from old telegraph poles, a dog hotel, a durian collecting shed and a communal bath for the indigenous people. Their curiosity and tireless experiments have won them international awards and had their works exhibited and published in Asia, Europe and the Americas
