Join us for the seventh installation of our JCC 15th Anniversary Talk Series with the Chairman of Tange Associates, Mr Paul Noritaka Tange, as he explores the Tange approach towards the creation of architecture in cities.

Cities consist of myriad architecture structures which generate spaces in which people conduct their lives. The team at Tange Associates has designed spaces, architectures and cities based on their studies of these inter-relationships and their convictions of how these relationships should be formed. The Tange approach will be demonstrated by showcasing specific completed projects in Singapore and around the world.
