Singapore Polytechnic 2018 Timber Decking Workshop

Singapore Polytechnic 2017 Timber Decking Workshop

Our business is built on a vision of creating wholesome outdoor lifestyles for everyone — but what we can achieve alone is limited. To inspire and equip the next generation, Nam Soon has proudly served as a recurring guest lecturer for Singapore Polytechnic’s Landscape Architecture students.
Over a 9 year partnership, we have shared our expertise in:

• Foundational principles of deck building
• Timber species selection
• Ecological sustainability
• Seamless design integration

Through these sessions, aspiring specialists gain practical industry knowledge, bridging classroom learning with real world application. This collaboration reflects our commitment not only to building spaces, but also to building futures.

Timber Decking Workshop @ yo:HA Commercial @ Tampines

Partnering with urban botanical specialists, Nam Soon transformed a barren backyard at yo:HA Commercial @ Tampines into The Healing Sanctuary.

Designed as an edutainment asset for families, this unique space features the Journey of Timber Decking Evolution trail — a walkway where visitors can explore decades of decking innovation. Along the path, guests witness how technology has advanced from traditional methods to modern, sustainable solutions.

Beyond the trail, families are invited to participate in interactive urban farming activities, blending leisure with learning and creating a sanctuary that nurtures both community and nature.

Nam Soon is honored to have contributed to the Rooftop Garden project at Bright Hill Evergreen Home, an accredited non‑profit nursing home housing over 200 elderly residents.

We transformed their open rooftop into a vibrant daytime activity zone where residents can enjoy panoramic views of the Punggol Waterway and engage in therapeutic mini‑planting projects that nurture both mind and spirit.

To ensure absolute safety and accessibility for wheelchair‑bound residents, we integrated mindful design features:

• Custom Timber Ramps for seamless wheelchair access
• Ergonomic Timber Handrails for optimal grip and physical support
• Perimeter Timber Railings along the viewing deck to prevent accidental falls

This project reflects Nam Soon’s commitment to not only building spaces, but also enriching lives through thoughtful, inclusive design.
