Mediapolis

Mediapolis@one-north was envisioned as Singapore’s first digital media hub, developed under the joint stewardship of JTC Corporation, the Media Development Authority, the Infocomm Development Authority, and the Economic Development Board within the wider one-north precinct. The 19-hectare hub is anchored by a 12-storey media complex comprising a 1,600-seat theatre, two large production studios, and other media production facilities, alongside retail space and four basement levels, with MediaCorp as its anchor tenant occupying approximately 79,500 sqm of the development.

The anchor MediaCorp Campus was the winning scheme of an invited international design competition held in 2011, designed jointly by Maki & Associates and DP Architects, nested within a broader masterplan by Zaha Hadid Architects at the critical junction of Ayer Rajah and Star Avenue. Groundbreaking for the campus took place on 11 November 2011, with MediaCorp relocating to the completed facility in December 2015.

BIM training and BIM consultancy were provided for DP Architects in 2011, supporting the design team’s adoption of BIM workflows on a project combining complex theatre, studio, and production facility requirements within a single media complex, nested within a larger precinct masterplan by another architectural practice.
