考慮到保留武吉布朗墓地歷史和文化的重要性,藉由經驗空間,教育年輕一代華人的文化素養,並灌輸新加坡的歷史與武吉布朗墓地的重要性。設計概念是關於紅線,經常使用在中國喪禮上,作為一個即將通過死亡領域的象徵。將紅線當作通往文化中心各空間的指引,以經驗”清明節文化”,並了解武吉布朗墓地成為文化中心的空間特質。讓遊客重新回到過去,探索歷史與學習認同。

Set amidst the central catchment area of Singapore, Bukit Brown cemetery is a site highly contested for as the government would like to develop this cemetery park into housing estates. However, this act is not just an erasure of a Chinese burial ground, but also its rich heritage, pre-independence histories prior to Singapore’s nation building. Taking into account the importance to preserve this part of Singaporeans’ history and heritage, the thesis project is about building a heritage centre to educate the younger generation the importance of our Chinese cultures by inculcating some of the learning aspects and qualities through experiencing the spaces of the heritage centre. It is about the explorations and learning that allows the visitors to re-connect with the past histories and identities.
