CTRL+C
FINAL YEAR PROJECT- DESIGN RESEARCH, OBSERVATION
2024
ctrl+c is a critic of Singapore’s homogeneous urban spaces that are built similarly, as though they were copied and pasted. Through an investigation of neighbourhood parks, we delve into the intertwining relationship between human behaviour in a prescribed environment, where chaos is controlled and contained within its boundaries.
This research questions the city’s rigid layout and challenges planners’ current considerations in urban design, encouraging a deeper understanding of spaces that enable freedom of usage.
*Disclaimer: This is not a spatial-focused project, rather an inquiry exploring the relationship between people and the space.
A collaborative project by Felicia Winarsa and Joelle Lee in fulfillment of the final year project requirement for BA (Hons) Design Practice at NAFA.
ctrl+c, commonly used as a command to copy, but we interpret it as “controlled chaos”.

SPECULATIVE VISUALISATION OF THE REIMAGINED PARK
Reimagining a park without boundaries, allowing nature to grow into void decks and walls, and breaking the traditional park layout by letting green spaces and built environments to coexist. Emphasising nature as the main element, the park features naturally spaced trees and disconnected paths with minimal facilities that give residents freedom in navigating the space, eventually creating desire paths that reflect the unique identity of the surrounding communities.
“PARKS 101”
This booklet contains step-by-step instructions for constructing the park we envision, demonstrated in a humorous tone.
