Singapore's Building Stock: Approaches to a Multi-Scale Documentation and Analysis of Transformations - Hardcover
Synopsis
Singapore is undergoing rapid urbanization, including the construction of new buildings and infrastructure and the renovation of existing structures. These physical changes become interwoven within the “built fabric” of the evolving city, reflecting an ever-changing social and cultural landscape. At the same time, the ecological systems of the city interact with these changes and themselves change over time.
A thorough and visually compelling account of Singapore’s rapid urban development, Singapore’s Building Stock analyzes the city’s transformation, drawing on a wealth of sources, including historic maps and surveys, aerial photographs, planning documents, and contemporary building surveys. The book offers three perspectives in the form of different spatial scales—the territory, the district, and the building—and insightful contributions by the books editors, Uta Hassler and Iris Belle, and other renowned experts on art, architecture, and urbanization.

Singapore's Building Stock (Paperback)
Seller: Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. State-of-the-art Singapore is constantly transforming and rejuvenating her building stock. Singapore's Building Stock documents and analyses these transformations of the efficiently organized global city over the past two centuries at multiple spatial scales. This book offers an alternative history of Singapore's urban development: the history of construction, demolition and reconstruction. The collection of essays assesses what the changes in Singapore's building stock meant for the preservation of physical and cultural values for the long view. In three sections - the island scale, the district scale, and the building scale - different data sources come together to show the relationship between development policies, the morphology of Singapore's built environments and the speed of its transformation. Photos, maps and numerical charts illustrate the lost and new, revealing accidental survivors as well as carefully staged relics from the past. State-of-the-art Singapore is constantly transforming and rejuvenating her building stock. The book documents and analyses these transformations of the efficiently organized global city over the past two centuries at multiple spatial scales. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9783777425405
