Tina Qiu discusses the future of Singapore’s ageing malls on Industry Insight

PLP Architecture Partner Tina Qiu recently joined Singapore’s Industry Insight podcast to discuss the redevelopment of Marina Square and what it reveals about the future of ageing retail destinations. As precinct masterplanner and lead designer, working alongside DP Architects, Tina shared insights into how older malls can adapt to changing shopping habits and lifestyles.

The conversation explores strategies for transforming Marina Square’s inward-facing design, improving connectivity and wayfinding, introducing a broader mix of uses, and carefully integrating new architecture within the existing structure.
