KUCHING (Aug 7): The future of Sarawak housing must be conducive to the present and future generation with an emphasis on environmental sustainability, said Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg.
The design competition was organised by Hock Seng Lee (HSL) in collaboration with Next Phase (NP), which is the landowner, and the Malaysian Institute of Architects Sarawak Chapter (PAMSC).
There were a total of 112 entries and the top five winners share the prize money totalling RM200,000.
Langit’s location is a compact but fantastically-located site along Jalan Tabuan, nestled in between Kuching’s historic core and establised commercial centres.
HSL-NP fully intends to build one of the winning entries.
Also present were Local Government and Housing Minister Dato Sri Prof Dr Sim Kui Hian, HSL managing director Datuk Paul Yu Chee Hoe and PAMSC chairman cum competition convenor Chai Si Yong.
