Sir Peter Cook at WAF 2012!

WAF 2012 day 2 of volunteering, and first day of the festival! I was assigned to crit room 6 where Winston Shu (Integrated Design Associates), Chris Wilkinson (Wilkinson Eyre Architects) and Lance Taylor (Rider Levett Bucknall) were judging in the Office category. We took pictures with them at the end of the judging.

Some of my friends got a picture with David Basulto of ArchDaily, and he gave them ArchDaily stickers! All in all an exciting day being amongst some of the best architects internationally. 

Today the student volunteers (which includes me and polygonal) helped to prepare for the World Architecture Festival(WAF) at Marina Bay Sands Singapore, which is starting tomorrow!

Our first task of the day was to put sticky dots onto the back of the name placards. Our second task of the day was to remove them again.

Then we did a bit of name placard sorting, and placed them onto the right panels. 

Largely we were aimlessly wandering around the place, looking at all the panels and breathing in construction fumes, until they gave us a briefing in the afternoon and gave us t-shirts. This week will be pretty exciting I reckon!

Designed by WOW Architects and a first for Archifest, the Pavilion will serve as the festival’s key venue. It will be built at The Foothills Fort Canning Park, a site fondly remembered as the former River Valley Swimming Pool, which has since been transformed into a park by the National Parks Board.
