Historical Facts of 111 Somerset
111 Somerset (formerly known as PUB Building or Singapore Power Building) was designed with its complex horizontal massing, demonstrating the ability of complex forms to impose perceptual entities. It was the subject of an architectural competition in 1971 with a jury chaired by then PUB chairman Lim Kim San.
The volumes in the form of an inverted pyramid give the facade an impressive depth, respond to the functional differences of the departments and reveal the functional hierarchy of the officials. Interestingly, the stylistic resemblance to Kalman, McNeil and Knowles here echoes Boston City Hall, a distant echo that echoes the same structure.
