The REIMAGINE Façade Competition invites PAM's graduate members and corporate members to rethink façade design and create functional and visually compelling solutions that address the evolving needs of urban architecture. Participants are encouraged to create facades that are not only striking but also responsive to the context, climate, and user needs.
The 35-storey Menara DBKL 1 building was completed in 1980 and was the tallest building at the time. The tower has an observation deck that offers a view of the entire Kuala Lumpur landscape.
Participants will design a facade that represent DBKL history, and forward-looking identity as administrative centre for the bustling city while addressing the challenges of tropical weather and urban energy demands.
There will be a non-refundable fee of RM108.00 including 8% SST (Ringgit Malaysia One Hundred and Eight Only)
