TOUR DE SINGAPORA
BY ABIGAIL FERNANDO
During the month of August, five students from the City School of Architecture were treated to a tour of Singapore, organized as part of a continuous engagement between Akzonobel (Pvt) Ltd and CSA. Following a series of leaming sessions conducted by renowned architect and visiting lecturer Nela de Zoysa, the students were selected for the tour following the completion of a detailed assignment on the topic of Colour. Five students, Ishani Amaratunga, Abigail Fernando, Meshari Fahim, Minuri De Silva, and Romein Keerthisinghe were selected. The study tour showcased some of the latest innovations from the company's flagship brand, Dulux. During the tour the students were given invaluable exposure to some of the finest examples of modern architecture including a personal tour of prominent landmarks that AkzoNobel had provided cootings solutions for such as the Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay and Singapore's first UNESCO World Heritage site, the Burkhill Hall Botanical Gardens. The students visited AkzoNobel's regional headquarters, a certified green building considered an example on how bold and vibrant usage of color can be utilized as a powerful tool for experiential communication and finally given the opportunity to experience universal studios before heading back home.
