The NUS SDE4 is the first new-build net-zero energy building in Singapore - a prototype of sustainable design that combines a stringent net-zero target re-validated to the grammar of tropical architecture. Located near the southern coastline of Singapore, the climate-responsive building includes more than 1,500 sq.m of design studio space, an open plaza; a wide variety of public and social spaces alongside workshops and research centers while focusing on the health and wellbeing of its occupants. SDE4 is the latest addition to the SDE precincts, part of NUS’s larger campus redevelopment goals.
