PORTRAIT OF A CITY
In a career spanning 50 years and counting, Liu Thai-Ker has helmed the Housing and Development Board (HDB) and Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), playing instrumental roles in the development of public housing in Singapore and in shaping revisions to the Concept Plan.
Subsequently, as a senior executive in the private sector, he is the man behind high-profile local projects such as the Marina Bay Cruise Centre, the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory at the National University of Singapore and the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts campus, as well as large-scale developments in China.
Three years ago, at the age of 79, the veteran architect founded his own practice, Morrow Architects & Planners, with the intention of creating a smaller studio environment where he can impart his skills and share his experiences with the younger generation of designers.
