The infantry stages of Singapore’s urban development and quest for an architectural identity since the 1930s saw a series of experimentation that had to respond to the cultural context and the demands of the booming population, in addition to the principles of nationalism. The journey through this tour brings forward glimpses into the present past, the paths through quaint neighbourhoods, the ideals behind the existence of Metabolist megastructures with aims to allow for mixed used development, the morphology of styles and typology into public housing and high rise housing.
