d+a Issue No. 135 (April 2025)

In this issue of d+a, we feature the restoration of the Danish Seamen’s Church (Golden Bell Mansion), an architectural gem nestled within the greenery of Mount Faber. We also look at properties housed within historic buildings: a heritage townhouse in Shanghai and an 18th century villa Lake Como. 
Aside from projects that celebrate architecture and design that honour the past while looking to the future, we explore the forward-looking Built Environment Innovation Hub (BEIH) within the BCA Braddell Campus. And we asked three Singapore-based designers to share their vision for the modern workplace — evolved office spaces that encourage efficiency, interaction, and creativity.
