What a session! 🎙️
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us at the FENESTEX Forum during ARCHIDEX!
Our Director, Ar. Lui Sy Ying, took the stage alongside Ar. Foo Mau Jack (Archicentre) to dive deep into how building envelopes act as living, breathing responses to site, environment, and local culture.
Ar. Lui shared key design insights from Astaka Kota Selera, Penang, demonstrating how thoughtful façade articulation and natural ventilation can seamlessly blend public facility design with the rich, historical landscape of Fort Cornwallis. It was a inspiring exploration of balancing heritage sensitivity with modern architectural functionality.
Thank you to the organizers, co-speakers, and the engaged audience for making this forum a resounding success!
