SCDA Architects

SCDA Architects Established in 1995 by Soo K. Chan. SCDA ARCHITECTS is a multi-disciplinary design studio established in 1995 by Founder and Design Director Soo K.

SCDA is a design studio seamlessly integrating architecture, interior design, landscape and product design to create holistic spatial experiences. Its holistic approach to design includes architecture, interior design, landscape, planning services and product design. SCDA’s designs strive for tranquility and calmness qualified by space, light and structural order. Architectural expressions are distilled to capture the spiritual essence of ‘place’. Its architecture and interiors are inspired by the cultural and climatic nuances of its context, integrating landscape, water features and blurring the distinction between interior and exterior. Spaces are often characterized by lush gardens, water courts and air wells, engendering a sensuous engagement with the elements. Projects display sensitivity to the inherent beauty of natural materials expressed through clarity in construction details and elemental architectural expression. The firm's portfolio of projects include master planning, resorts and hotels, high-rise luxury apartments, commercial and institutional buildings and private homes, spanning cities over several continents including Asia, Africa, Europe, Oceania and America.

The Singapore Architecture Collection presents a conversation with Ar. Chan Soo Khian, Founding Principal of SCDA Architects.

From a childhood spent in a historic shophouse in George Town, Penang (now a UNESCO World Heritage Site), to a practice of five offices worldwide, he traces the path behind one of Singapore's most distinctive architectural firms. In this candid conversation, he shares rare reflections on the spatial ideas at the heart of his work, and the conviction, discipline and optimism it takes to carry them across scales, geographies and changing times.

Recorded during SCDA30: Beyond Boundaries at the URA Centre (5 June – 30 July 2026), the conversation marks SCDA's donation of artefacts to the Singapore Architecture Collection, tracing how the practice's ideas took shape over three decades.

Aman Seoul, Conceived as an urban sanctuary, SCDA brings a refined architectural clarity to one of Asia’s most dynamic capitals through its signature, quiet, and timeless rigor. A gridded frame traced with fine copper accents registers the shifting character of the day. The sculpted form at the base demonstrates Shinsegae’s affinity for heritage and proportion, interpreted with contemporary restraint.
