                                             Project background
                                             •    This project entailed PMSB taking on a project abandoned by another contractor and sorting out
                                                  major defective works.




                                             •    The Elections Commission Building, a 10-storey government office building with a three-storey
                                                  basement, was uniquely conceptualised as a transparent ballot box to symbolise the transparency
                                                  of the national elections processes. The cross-louvered fins at the east and west elevation not only

                                                  symbolise the crosses on a ballot form, they also help reduce the glare from sunlight thereby

                                                  reducing energy consumption. At night, the facade lighting enhances the features of the building
                                                  with three different modes – weekday, weekend and festive modes.
