In collaboration with Singapore Tatler Homes and local laminate brand Arova, three design firms created artworks representative of their individual design philosophies. Architology Interiors chose to playfully engage viewers by teasing their spatial awareness in a creatively put-together collage


With a focus on spatial and interior design, Architology Interiors has worked on a multitude of diverse projects across Singapore and the region. Founded by Bu Shukun and Terrence Quah, their ever-expanding portfolio is characterised by the firm’s progressive process, tailoring spatial narratives to deliver bold, elegant and livable design.

“The development of clear design language is synonymous with good progressive design,” say Bu and Quah. “We adopt a narrative approach in our work, scripting abstract concepts and composing spatial expressions into compelling spatial language, in which the design intention can be easily read and narrated by the user to elicit emotive response.”

As part of this creative collaboration with Singapore Tatler Homes, the studio created an artwork with a trompe l’oeil effect that is also the embodiment of their creative process. The artwork comprises layers of laser-cut laminate pieces from Arova, arranged as two-dimensional planes and three-dimensional volumes such that it can be perceived in myriad ways by its viewer.

“The sketchy nature of the forms draws the viewers’ gaze and curiosity into this imaginary world of unlimited planes and volumes floating in negative space, transporting oneself within the artwork,” they explain.
