We are delighted to announce that Leonard Ng will be joined by moderator Don Royds for the May Streetscapes Webinar Series.
For those who don't know, Leonard Ng is Country Market Director, APAC for Henning Larsen with an internationally acclaimed portfolio. In 2023, he was conferred the President's Design Award - Designer of the Year, highest honour across all design disciplines in Singapore.
Leonard’s academic background and design interest lay at the juncture between man and his environment with the aim of finding a long-term sustainable balance between them.
His approach involves extensive collaboration with diverse professions to foment holistic landscape-based solutions that engage and educate users while respecting the environment. His works feature design integrating water found on-site with the surrounding urban development in a sensitive manner, which most notably include: Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, Kampung Admiralty, Jurong Lake Gardens, ABC Waters Masterplan, and Lim Chu Kang AgriFood Hub Master Plan. An article on Leonard's achievements can be read here.
