Raffles Place Placemaking Plan

We joined forces with LOPELAB to create a placemaking and activation framework for Raffles Place Alliance, a pilot-Business Improvement District. The aim was to elevate Singapore’s premier business district into the “Central Buzz District”: a place where talent converges around opportunity, creativity and entrepreneurship.

We developed two resources, a Place Priorities Plan and Potential Locations for Programs. Together, these outlined key opportunities and recommendations, supported by an implementation strategy informed by the findings for each objective.

The plans were implemented across 2022 and 2023, helping maximise the use of Raffles Place. The approach made use of existing resources and assets, tapped on existing partnerships and utilised quick and cost-effective placemaking interventions. This created shared benefits for everyone who uses the precinct.
