The Homes that Shaped Us is the first monograph on the work by Park + Associates, showcasing a selection of the renowned Singaporean firm's award-winning houses. Singapore's residential architectural scene is notable for blending futuristic design with sustainable practices and cultural influences. For over 25 years, Park + Associates has been quietly earning praise and plaudits for designing houses that stand out for their architectural innovation, yet which are very much designed as family homes. The studio's bespoke designs respond to context, lifestyle, and the client's own ideas. The firm is noted for designing for the tropical climate of Singapore, with emphasis on natural light, cooling effects of water and including beautiful green spaces. The houses showcased in this stunning monograph document the evolution of the firm since its inception in 1999, provide valuable insight into its work, and reflect the joy the Park + Associates team finds in designing homes. Each project is illustrated with beautiful photography and detailed floor plans and elevations. This book a valuable and inspirational resource for anyone interested in architecture and design, with particular reference to tropical climates and modern contemporary comfort.

AUTHOR: Park + Associates was established in 1999, and has grown to be a studio of dedicated like-minded individuals. The firm recognises the importance of people and the human experience in architecture. With all design projects, they seek to create something that resonates with the individual. They believe in the importance of a personal relationship with clients and builders, and customise each project by building upon client expectations and challenging the studio's body of work, while respectfully responding to the site context.
