We welcome 2017 with a brand new look and a fresh new content. As the revamped issue 96 of d+a magazine takes on a revolutionary creative direction, you can expect a collection of curated projects that encapsulates the essence of design and architecture across the world. Set around the theme of ‘Conservation in Modernity’, this issue brings you to explore the beauty of Tribeca homes in downtown Manhattan as well as Anglo-Chinese mansions that are given a new lease of life. Learn how abandoned and derelict factories are turned into lively and beautiful spaces whilst staying true to its history. We have a quick chat with architect, Eran Chen of ODA New York, while celebrated conservation architect, Ar. Laurence Loh shares his sentiments on the illustrious Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion and conservation in Penang, Malaysia. In Prime, we take a closer and even deeper look into the nuts and bolts of the Blue Mansion and its ‘spirit of place’. In the Pulse section, we divulge into the life of Alex Seton and six other talented artists from the Singapore Biennale 2016.
