ArchiTours are a celebration and exploration of the city’s best buildings, streets and spaces. Architects, locals, and visitors alike are welcome to join the specially organised guided journeys that explore some of the best architectural work in Singapore
This year, ArchiTours ‘10 celebrates some favourite pieces of architecture in Singapore – works that have contributed to shaping our distinct cityscape and fashioned our perception of architecture in Singapore. Back by popular demand, we explore works that are iconic and familiar to Singaporeans, and those that have won themselves a reputation among professionals and students in the design industry. Get ready for an inspirational experience. You might get to meet the architects behind some of these iconic works! Take your pick and join a tour!
This year, the ArchiTour will be based on 4 different themes (Architect and Designer Open Office, DomestiCity, IntricaCity, ComplexCity).

A home. The abode that one returns to. The private space that only allows for the owner and his family. Happiness comes from the home, they say. And in this tour of DomestiCity, we look at the homes that have been fastidiously designed, to cater to every need of the owner, for his being, for his happiness. Designer homes are now on the rise as people begin to appreciate the need for tailored domiciles; from sky-rise apartments to terrace houses to bungalows, we see how the space is crafted to suit the needs and lifestyle of the homeowners. DomestiCity will present the quintessence of Singapore’s modern housing, in the form of beautiful living spaces.
