SCDA launches The Tenda

SCDA launches The Tenda

Bali, Indonesia

November, 2020

The Tenda (bahasa for tent) is an ecologically-empathetic retreat created by SCDA to inspire and empower travelers in the exploration of new ways of creating, thinking and living on our finite, green and blue planet. Situated in Kelating village, just minutes from Soo K. Chan’s Soori Bali, the retreat takes shape as a herd of self-sustaining, cabins; or tenda; a discursive provocation of how architecture and design can rally to make palatable off-grid living a real proposition.

A true luxury apartment comes with a swimming pool

A true luxury apartment comes with a swimming pool

China

January 17, 2017

Weixin QQ - Designing Together

A villa with pool isn't that surprising - even a hotel might also have its own swimming pool. Most developments these days have typical apartment layouts, with the rare provision of a common swimming pool. 
 
Singapore-based SCDA's Soori High Line residences encapsulate its architecture and interiors sensibilities in a collection of 31 private residences, with 16 apartments having their own private pool. Principal and founder Soo Chan has completed many high-rise pools in Singapore, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and other parts of Asia - but a high-rise private swimming pool in Manhattan is a rare feat.
