In a rapidly changing world landscape, well-designed buildings and spaces actually create value for its users. This strong belief is what drives acclaimed architect Dr Tan Loke Mun – principal of DrTanLM Architect, director of ArchiCentre, and founder of DTLM Design Group – in finding the balance between a rush towards modern standardisation and the extra effort and detail that can create the requisite ambience for his projects.

Known for his innovative and sustainable building designs, he often works from the basis of typologies and has managed to interpret and translate simple regional metaphors into his increasingly green architecture.
