THE STRIDE @ CHANGI

‘The Stride’ represents a bridge between the past and the future, redefining our approach to adaptive re-use and sustainable living moving forward.

Committed to making targeted and minimal interventions, “The Stride” is the pilot plan that will be guided by Ecological Transition principles for the rejuvenation of Old Changi Hospital. It will serve as an urban eco-centre testbed that repurposes building into various distinct functions that is flexible to serve evolved community needs through learning, work and play.

Developed to deliver a continuous breath of life within the invaluable historical site, the master plan is strategized through the set-up of circular systems in self-sustainable food cycle and responsible energy circulation. By retaining the overall existing architectural structure, the project envisions energy usage offsets by tapping on the natural ventilation and lighting to integrate Mother Nature’s presence in the refreshed purpose of the hospital.

As a representative of the beacon for a resilient tomorrow, “The Stride” will lead this new “transition” of fundamentally changing our design philosophy to consider the building in relation to its surrounding environment and structures, past, present and future.
