TWO local university students have triumphed in the AYDA Best Sustainable Design Awards by Nippon Paint for both architectural and interior design categories at the international finale held in Landmark 81, Vietnam.

After winning the Gold Award title last year in Malaysia, both Young Hui Qi and Zachary Ding Tok came up against 26 finalists from both categories across the region.
