Spark (architects)
SPARK is an international architecture and urban design studio registered in London, Singapore and Shanghai. The studio has designed a variety of projects from complex multiphased mixed-use buildings, city-scale master plans, residential and hotel developments, building regeneration and transformations to small scale urban infill projects.
History
Founded in 2008, SPARK’s projects include the rejuvenated Clarke Quay in Singapore, the International Cruise Terminal Shanghai, Starhill Gallery Kuala Lumpur, Arte S Penang, Rihan Heights Abu Dhabi, GRiD Singapore, Shekou Gateway Shenzhen and the Raffles City projects in Ningbo and Beijing.
SPARK owes its origins to the studio of British architect William Alsop, where Stephen Pimbley was a partner and worked for 16 years. He led projects such as Cardiff Bay Barrage, the Hôtel du département des Bouches-du-Rhône, Rotterdam Centraal, Calypso and The Public. He designed the transformation of Clarke Quay, leading to the founding of SPARK's first Asia studio in Singapore.
SPARK is known for its research and leadership projects. Each project deals with issues pertinent to problems the community faces in the places where SPARK works.
