SPARK has transformed the existing POMO mall into a youth focussed development “GR.iD” that embraces the eclectic and vibrant atmosphere and culture of the Selegie education district of Singapore. The mall podium has been radically reinvented to capture the potential value of street facing shops and relationship to the School of the Arts. The new “Tetris” arrangement of stacked retail and F+B volumes and terraces provides a new image and address for the development whilst maximising the potential “image” of the project’s key corner. The “Tetris” fragments to encourage direct links to basement leisure and food outlets via a 5m wide triple height social staircase. Key transforming installations include new washrooms, new social “hang out” spaces, activated voids and new entrances. GR.iD is set to become the happening place for Singapore’s artistic student community by providing new platforms for meeting, thinking and collaboration during the students formative years GR.iD leverages on the very basic and fun means of communication and social interaction.
