INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Urban Climate Design Lab (UCDL) at DOA, NUS! We are a multidisciplinary research team that includes architects, urban planners, geographers, fluid mechanic scientists, and climatologists. In the background of climate change and increasing urbanization, we support and aspire toward climate-sensitive planning and design for sustainable and resilient cities in real life.
