The President*s Design Award (P*DA) is Singapore’s highest honour for designers and designs across all disciplines. Awards are conferred under two categories, Designer of the Year and Design of the Year. As a winner of the Design of the Year (Architecture), the State Courts Towers was commended for being a building that resonates with the public and one that referenced the typical architecture of the surrounding site. The jury commented that the direct and effective design reinvents the classical image of courtroom complexes for contemporary times while embracing and addressing the space complexities that create a new kind of court complex.
