Capstone Project (Team)
DBS Bank Space @ SUTD East Coast Campus
Spring – Summer 2015

Our proposal for an easy, joyful and convenient banking experience in a university campus is a transformable branch design. In an 24/7 setting, we wanted to inspire customers through ever-changing spaces and content, creating an unexpected experience in every visit.

In line with SUTD’s culture of flexible use of spaces, the small bank space can be transformed into different configurations for exhibition space, seminars and meetings. After opening hours, the bank space remains accessible as the main box floats up, becoming an installation piece.

Our 1:1 real scale final prototype in the actual bank space! After the first prototype, we conducted user testing sessions with our mentors from SUTD and DBS, and made several design decisions for the final design.

And here are some photos from our final exhibition day on 31st July 2015…
