The ‘Venice Biennale International Architectural Exhibition’ is the world’s biggest showcase of architecture design, attracting numerous participating countries every other year. The Singapore Pavilion’s exhibition, titled ‘Singapore Built & Unbuilt’, featured ideas by both local and international architects, offering a glimpse of Singapore’s future landscape. These include the 3 growth areas in Singapore at the time: Marina Bay, the City and one-north.
H55’s design response to the title, was to create a visual identity which appropriates both a (built) graphic skyline of buildings and a (unbuilt) natural landscape. This informed the logotype and motif for the exhibition.
Complementing the exhibition design, H55’s identity was applied onto the walls and seats of the pavilion, creating a printed landscape within the space.
