Institutional buildings are part and parcel of economic development in any country. From schools and universities to hospitals and government offices, institutional buildings provide opportunities for development action and help instigate and protect change in society. In a nutshell, they can promote a better quality of life among citizens at large.
Good architecture design can enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of institutional buildings, which our experienced architects make great efforts to accomplish in all the institutional projects we have undertaken.
Functional space
Functionality cannot be disregarded as it directly affects the building's ability to fulfill its purpose. All these institutional buildings require unique designs that accommodate specific needs, such as the flow of people and materials, security measures, and specialized equipment. As such, a well-designed institutional building will improve efficiency, increase productivity, and enhance the user experience of visitors - ensuring that operations are carried out smoothly and without any complications.
Safety and security
Institutional buildings need to meet stringent safety and security requirements. While educational facilities, hospitals, and government offices are all responsible for the safety and well-being of their staff and visitors, architects have the responsibility to design buildings that are equipped with proper safety and security features, such as entry and exit points. A safe and secure environment helps maintain order and peace of mind.
Works with the environment
Singapore is increasingly prioritizing the importance of sustainability in architecture. Considering that institutional projects are typically large and consume a significant amount of energy and resources, they will impact the environment on a large scale. Good architecture design thus reduces the building’s environmental footprint through energy- and resource-efficient design features. Architects can also use this opportunity to create green spaces, such as gardens or courtyards, to provide a welcoming and relaxing environment for visitors. All in all, architecture design should aim to promote harmony between humans and nature.

As a leading institutional projects architecture firm in Singapore, AR43 has worked alongside reputable organizations, such as the National University of Singapore (NUS). With our years of experience, our architects have managed to combine aesthetics and practicality in our architectural designs, ensuring that these institutions have the ability to carry out their duties.
AR43 has always taken into account the importance of preserving the environment, which can be noticed in several of our institutional projects. With the Red Cross Singapore, we have specially incorporated an elevated green deck in order to conserve the existing trees in the area while providing a dedicated space for recreational purposes. Research facilities at the National University of Singapore feature LED lighting with daylight timers and presence sensors to improve the overall energy efficiency of the building.
