The “Velocity@Novena Square” development in Singapore has gained new facilities and a bright new look at ground level, thanks to the Velocity development, designed by DP Architects, which had already worked extensively on the project when it took on this latest commission.

ZuidWestHoek College
An outer shell of small, brightly coloured and vertically elongated rectangular steel panels lends a playful and appealing appearance to ZuidWestHoek College, a secondary school and sports college at Ossendrecht, a small town in the southern Netherlands, located only a few kilometres north of the Belgian border.

Two Housing Blocks
The housing designed by Dubosc & Associes in Montargis, France, is certainly uncompromising. Clad entirely in metal, it eschews any of the conventional domestic touches but it does so in a manner that is refreshing and bright. The only punctuation to the neutral metallic colour comes from the front doors in a cheerful red, with large painted numbers, and sensibly generous vision panels. There is no chance here of forgetting where you live, and the sloping external staircases are both inviting and, argues Eric Dubosc, important places of social interaction. ‘People never talk on internal staircases,’ he says. ‘Here they are out of doors, so they talk and their children play together.’
