The invisible infrastructure supporting waste disposal contribute to the dismal recycling rates in Singapore, with facilities and systems being out of sight and out of mind. A prototype recycling centre situated in the heart of the residential estate is proposed to deal with waste at the neighbourhood level through a decentralised process. Co-located with a community centre, shopping mall, and market and food centre, the complex efficiently harvests \u2018waste material\u2019 from its adjacent sources, while making visible the flow of materials.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n
Material as Resource<\/b><\/p>\r\n
The centre is designed as a living museum to showcase the flow and transformation of materials. Various community facilities are injected to make this a \u2018community centre for recycling\u2019, rather than an industrial complex; the community is both able to witness the yet untapped potential of waste and also be part of the transformation process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n
Community as Resource<\/b><\/p>\r\n
The centre is designed for community and industrial symbiosis. Within it, the systems of food and plastic recycling, micro-gasification, and urban farming are integrated, with the by-products of one becoming resource for another. Through these, the unwanted materials from the community are transformed into products directly useable by the community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n
Architecture as Resource\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\r\n
The integrated complex incorporates a community landmark, the old Jurong Theatre, retaining the existing building stock while adapting it to its new purpose. The architecture also employs building elements salvageable from the demolition of HDB estates to bring a familiar touch to a new means of reuse.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n <\/p>","grid_spacer":"0","grid_spacer_topbottom":"0","grid_spacer_width":"200","grid_spacer_height":"5","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG0-scaled.jpg","uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG0-scaled.jpg",2560,1208,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG0-400x189.jpg",400,189,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG0-1024x483.jpg",1024,483,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG0-768x362.jpg",640,302,true],"large":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG0-1920x906.jpg",640,302,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG0-1536x725.jpg",1536,725,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG0-2048x967.jpg",2048,967,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Emma","author_link":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/author\/nusmarch_emma\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"[...]Read More...","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1057"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1057"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1057\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1064"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1057"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1057"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1057"},{"taxonomy":"supervisor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nusmarchgradshow.com\/2021\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/supervisor?post=1057"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
