About
Jingkang is an interior designer that seeks to blend the tangible rationality and intangible spatial qualities of a given environment and space, treading between the real and the unreal.
He is fascinated by how set principles and procedures can permutate and form an ever-changing design language.
Interwoven Tapestry
Interwoven Tapestry reconstructs elderly living typology, allowing seniors to experience a second 'family' in their later years.
Situated in the last remaining kampung in Singapore, Interwoven Tapestry injects the kampung spirit of communal living into Kampung Lorong Buangkok, now a heavily guarded and individualistic community.
Communal kitchens, shared bicycle 'workshops', individual open spaces that cross boundaries form shared courtyards—like a loom, these programmes weave the new and the existing into a singular 'tapestry' establishing a new social fabric in Kampung Lorong Buangkok.
