Eunoia Junior College
2019 saw the completion of the first building project using CREE in Asia. The result of a collaboration with local partners Kimly Construction and Lian Ho Lee Construction in Singapore, the impressive building houses Singapore’s first high-rise junior college. The use of mass engineered timber and the CREE hybrid slab system not only contributed to heightened construction productivity, but the resulting open spaces, integrated greenery, and tranquil environment offer students the ideal surroundings for building a successful professional future.
