#designoftheday - 20 September 2018:  The Future of Us Exhibition Pavilion by SUTD Advanced Architecture Laboratory. . The Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) Advanced Architecture Laboratory (AAL) was commissioned to design this large-scale exhibition pavilion for The Future of Us exhibition, the capstone event to round up Singapore’s Golden Jubilee (SG50) year of celebrations, in late 2014. The visitors of the exhibition experience a stunning play of light and shade cast by an intricate metal lattice, like a ‘walk in an imaginary forest’. .

Congrats to SUTD Advanced Architecture Laboratory, the creator behind Design of the Day of 20 September 2018 - The Future of Us Exhibition Pavilion. Checkout this great work now. We are currently featuring it at http://wwww.designoftheday.org/?48493
