该项目为一所专门的视觉和表演艺术学校。学校坐落于新加坡市区最核心地带，是通往艺术和娱乐街区的一个门户。整个项目包含了一所高密度内向性的独立学校设施和专业的艺术表演场所。这个综合设计实现了一个大型高密度但又能全方位实现自然采光和通风的新型城市建筑模式。

设计制造了两层无视线阻碍的平行空间，一个是地面给公众交流活动的空间，一个是上方安全的学校活动场所。此方法既为公众和广大艺术群体创造了一个通透的公共交流地点，也为学校学生创造了一个安全的生活学习环境。这两个场所被分别命名为”The Backdrop(背景幕)”和”The Blank Canvas (空画布)”以对应它们各自的功能。

“The Backdrop” 裙楼同时也拥有一个音乐厅,一个戏剧剧场,一个黑盒剧场和几个小的非正式表演空间。在这样一幅”背景幕”下，学生和公众展开着各类的交流互动。各剧场之间的高大自然通风空间形成了城市走廊，公众在这些空间里穿行路过时也能了解艺术学校里的活动。在建筑主入口初的树荫之下还有一处专门设计的城市剧场场所，这个设计非常受欢迎。从建筑语言上讲，”The Backdrop”营造了一个被多个立面限定出的具有雕塑感的空间，同时也和周围城市景观密切关联产生出行人在内移步换景的效果。

“The Blank Canvas”是安全受保护的一处简约而灵活的学校空间场所。”空白的画布”寓意建筑手法为教学内容让步，成为学生发挥无限想像实践无限可能的背景和画布。三栋长方形的教学楼与地面公共区域之间有安保点相隔，但在视觉上却于周围所有的道路动线相通。学校在这里被设计成了一个简约，实用，亮敞，通风，拥有最大限度灵活性和可持续性的环境。教室，工作室和所有公共场所都实现了自然通风，并在视觉上和实际交通动线上密切相连，形成了教学楼之间灵动而充满活力的空间。楼立面的垂直绿墙和一系列隔音措施让学校免于户外眩光，粉尘，热气和噪音的影响。

艺术学校是一个”思想的机器”。设计通过体量的安排布局将新加坡的微风加强并引入学校内有遮蔽的公共社交聚会场地，为学生创造了一个舒适安全的微型内部城市。教学楼之间的空间被设计成了能够容纳各种规模和类型活动的舒适通风过道，而这种能增进对流持续引入凉风的做法后来被证明在风速较低而且空气湿度大的新加坡是一种非常成功舒适的设计。学校的楼顶则被设计成了一个拥有一条400米跑道的大型空中花园和娱乐场所。

良好的环境，加上优秀的师资力量，课程安排和硬件设施使得学校学生近年来屡屡获得 国内外著名艺术学院的录取。而学校专业的设施也吸引了包括马友友在内的许多音乐家前来授课。而作为一个示范性的项目，学校也受到了来自世界个地想学习采用该模式的人们的观摩。

This project is a specialist high school for the visual and performing arts. The school is located in the heart of Singapore’s Civic district, at the gateway to the Arts and Entertainment district. The school combines a high-density, inner-city school with a professional performing arts venue. The design is a new paradigm, a large, dense, perforated urban object that achieves natural light and ventilation to all areas, despite its deep dimensions.

The design strategy creates two visually connected horizontal strata, a space for public communication below, and a space for safe, controlled interaction above. This strategy solves the twin objectives of porosity and communication with the public and wider arts community on the one hand, and a secure and safe learning environment on the other. The two parts are called the Backdrop and the Blank Canvas.

The Backdrop is the podium that contains a concert hall, drama theatre, black box theatre and several small informal performing spaces. Against this backdrop, the school communicates with the public realm. The high volume, naturally-ventilated informal spaces in between the performance spaces are designed around an urban short-cut, thereby allowing the public to see the activities of the school. A civic amphitheatre has been created under conserved trees, and is very popular. Architecturally, the Backdrop is designed as a faceted sculptural space, which frames the surrounding city views in new and interesting ways,

The Blank Canvas is the secured school area, and is a simple, fexible space. The metaphor suggests the open possibilities and focus on the educational content rather than the architectural frame. Three long rectangular blocks have a secured point of access yet are visually connected from all the circulation spaces, to the public areas below. This environment is simple, practical, bright, airy and is designed for maximum fexibility and sustainability. Classrooms, studios and circulation are all naturally ventilated, with dynamic visual and physical links between blocks. The green façades are environmental flters, cutting out glare and dust, keeping the rooms cool, and in combination with the acoustic ceilings, absorb trafc noise.

The School of the Arts is a “Machine for Wind”, designed to channel and intensify Singapore’s very light breezes through shaded, sheltered gathering and social spaces to provide a delightful and safe environment for children in the inner city. The breezeways in-between the blocks are designed for maximum comfort and interaction, providing spaces for different sized groups to interact and relax. The wind-directing design has proven to be successful and extremely comfortable, with constant cooling breezes despite Singapore’s low air movement, high humidity outdoor environment. The rooftop is designed as a large recreation park in the sky and incorporates a 400m running track.

The learning environment, combined with excellent teachers, curriculum and facilities, is achieving results, with students being approached by top conservatories. The professional facilities have attracted musicians such as Yo Yo Ma, who have given master classes to the children. Due to this successful outcome, the school is attracting visitors worldwide who are keen to adopt the model.
