This is a design and build project with National Heritage Board - Singapore Art Museum.
Multimedia won the project tender with its proposed ADAS® Tensile Membrane conceptual design and economical pricing. This structure features two frames inclined towards center. The tensile membrane is supporting at four corners giving ample space at the center.
The tensile membrane blends well with the adjacent historical building and environment. This design has passed through the stringent rules and regulations of the statutory conservation area, and detailed scrutinizing by the authorities on its appearance & aesthetic presentation.
A PTFE-coated glass fiber roof was selected as the natural light is able to pass through and it is environmentally friendly. In order to enhance the aesthetic of the canopy, colour changing LEDs are employed to light up the canopy at night. The canopy stands out perfectly.
