One The Esplanade - Reception Desk

Original Design | 2023
A monumental undertaking to create the facade for this gigantic reception counter located at One, The Esplanade, Elizabeth Quay. Designed in Collaboration with Gensler Singapore. We utilised degraded timber from the old Bunbury jetty and through a series of extreme processes, transformed it into an immaculately detailed and refined piece.
