Don’t (just) Think Like an Architect!

This year’s theme, DON’T (JUST) THINK LIKE AN ARCHITECT challenges conventional mindsets and invites new, unconventional ways of thinking in architecture. This festival brings together visionary designers, thought leaders, and local practitioners to push the boundaries of creativity, design, and education. It will explore how architecture can transcend its usual limits by rethinking the way we educate, design, and build.

Throughout the month, dive into personal stories, groundbreaking projects, and fresh perspectives that encourage architects to leverage on their diverse skill sets to shape the environment meaningfully. It’s about moving beyond just building structures and thinking more deeply about the impact of our work on the environment and communities.

This year’s Singapore Archifest will be an invitation to think NOT JUST like an architect—because the future of architecture lies in going beyond the expected.
