Summary:Strata malls are multi-level commercial buildings with units individually owned and managed. Unlike traditional shopping centers, these malls often house diverse shops catering to niche interests and local communities, contributing to their unique charm and adaptability. Singapore has seen a renewed interest in strata malls, highlighted by the conservation of Golden Mile Complex in 2021 and Peace Centre’s creative revitalization in 2023. "Singapore Strata Malls: A Retrospective for the Future" explores their urban, architectural and cultural significance. Co-authored by Calvin Chua and Aurelia Chan, this book examines these spaces' structural and intangible qualities through essays and creative analyses.
