Booklet
In a forward-looking and advancing society, it is critical that we anticipate our needs of tomorrow.
With the needs of each individual dweller, the needs of the specific community and the needs of society as a whole – how do we envision the living of tomorrow? How would one as a visionary designer, craft the structure and space that would meet the needs of tomorrow. And how would the design be resilient through the years?
By “future proofing”, we can predict the way we live, work, play and interact with the environment in the coming years. Thus, it is paramount for designers to take into consideration and fully immerse themselves in the social, economic and environmental context of the future dwellers in its entirety.
Each time and space has its own wonders and great structures to capture moments from the conceptual stages envisioned by the designer. We also need to be cognisant that whilst creating purposeful ‘brick-and-mortar’ designs, we would always be reminded to incorporate and subsequently build the ‘heart-and-soul’ elements into the project intent.
As a designer for tomorrow, envision the pattern of future spaces be it a workplace, living space or public space. Take into consideration the activities that will shape the lifestyle and movements of the citizens of the tomorrow, then craft purposeful spaces that fits into your vision of what future living is all about. Preserve your very own persona while foretelling the fundamental needs of tomorrow’s society via your design.
Demonstrate your vision and foresight in helping the people of tomorrow live in an optimized yet comfortable space. Let your artwork and design concept statement go hand-in-hand in bringing to life the tomorrow’s that you envisaged.
