Ah Ma Drink Stall on Pulau Ubin

Design and built project, Ah Ma Drink Stall on Pulau Ubin, by Associate Professor Tan Beng Kiang and students (Team leaders: Lam Ching Yan, Ethan Chung and Tu Tungyun) has been selected for exhibition at the Design for the Common Good International Exhibition held at the Metropolitan State University of Denver’s Center for Visual Art (CVA) from January 14 to March 19, 2022. The exhibition showcases public interest design projects from six continents and twenty-two countries.

“The Design for the Common Good International Exhibition asserts the value of public interest design, an emerging practice that envisions a community-centered approach in the design of buildings, environments, products, and systems. It is a practice that champions growing knowledge, evolving processes, and activating participation while tackling complex issues. The direct involvement of people—communities, stakeholders, designers, as well as educators and their students—is the heart of this work.”
