ShopHouse Transformation: Appraisal of the pre-war shophouse and its contemporary application

We are now faced with new social problems of deteriorating sense of community and a disjointed society that is generated by the Modern city paradigms. To tackle these new problems does not mean the complete restoration of the old system. It should mean a new typology that reflects the traditional system in an innovative way. By mixing the old buildings with the new ones through the injection of new communication platforms that encourage communication among people from different cultures and backgrounds, a more well-balanced society will be the new model for the future.
