Feature：

Project - Formwerkz Architects' Punggol Soka Centre reinterprets the concept of a citadel as an "Open Citadel" - a fortified yet welcoming sanctuary in Singapore's Punggol neighborhood. Situated at the intersection of Sumang Walk near the Punggol waterway, the centre aspires to be an "oasis of happiness" that embraces principles of peace, culture and education. The architects conceived the 3,200 square metre building as a solid masonry form punctured by a series of courtyard spaces that allow nature to permeate the interior. These landscaped voids create a variety of environments for discourse, relaxation and engagement with the outdoors. The courtyards provide moments of tranquility where one can observe and commune with nature - inspiring self-reflection and inner transformation. Despite its robust, fort-like appearance, the porous design establishes a sense of openness. Formwerkz describes it as bearing "fortitude to safeguard the good foundation" while remaining inclusive and protective. The interspersed green spaces offer pockets for both group activities and private contemplation amidst verdant surroundings. Embodying dignified hospitality, the Punggol Soka Centre presents an urban citadel reimagined - its bold massing contrasted by pockets of naturalistic sanctuary that cultivate engagement, wellbeing and happiness. The unique concept hybridizes notions of fortification and porosity into an innovative community hub.
