Type 0 Architecture

Type 0 Architecture stands at the forefront of a trans-disciplinary movement, dedicated to reshaping the landscape of architecture and urban development through technological innovation. By seamlessly integrating the realms of physical, digital, and biological design, Type 0 strives to pioneer fresh concepts, methodologies, and systems, all aimed at fostering sustainability and ingenuity in architectural production.

At the helm of this progressive endeavor is Pan Yi Cheng, who has orchestrated the formation of three distinct yet harmonious studios: Type0, Produce, and Superstructure. Each studio brings its own expertise to the table, specializing in Typological Transformation, Design Research, and Digital Fabrication and Assembly, respectively. Together, they offer a comprehensive approach to tackling the multifaceted challenges of modern urban environments.

In recent endeavors, Type 0 has unveiled a groundbreaking computational urban design system tailored for the conceptual masterplan of Singapore’s Paya Lebar Airbase. Additionally, the firm is currently spearheading efforts towards the realization of Singapore’s inaugural Mass Timber residential project, marking yet another milestone in their commitment to pushing the boundaries of architectural innovation.
