SIM Heritage Gallery | Design Proposal

Project Description
In an invited tender, the consortium of Equilibrium, FirstSight and FORTH submitted a proposal for the design, artefact management, content research, curatorship and construction of Singapore Institute of Management's (SIM) new Heritage Gallery.

The gallery is conceived as a traversable objet d'art nestled in a double-volume entry foyer space. As a symbol of SIM's 50th anniversary of nurturing future leaders and nation building, the crisp lines, imagined curves and singular material use present a stunning first impression to staff, students and visitors.

The bespoke rhomboid pillar formation creates 4 distinct 'courtyard' zones of embedded content & artefact display, digital media experience, and seating; while at mezzzanine level, time capsules are ensconced within the tallest pillars to be opened a decade later.


Client Singapore Institute of Management (SIM)

Proposal Submission December 2013

Project Team
Collaboration of Dr Kevin Tan (Equilibrium), Zak Lo (FirstSight), Lim Chen Sian and Cheah Fang Leah
