Amazing Grace

Adaptive reuse projects are tricky propositions; they require technical know-how, aesthetic nous and intuition to be realised successfully. Bee Eu Tan, the founder of BETA (BEu Tan Architect), has combined the three with aplomb with projects such as Penang Digital Library, Penang Harmony Centre and Kedah Digital Library, to name but a few.

The Penang Digital Library, a transformation of the Penang Free School’s headmaster’s quarters, was awarded the Alteration and Addition Category gold medal at the PAM 2019, making Tan’s company, BETA, the youngest practice to win a top prize.

Another PAM gold medal followed this in the Adaptive Reuse Category for the redesign of Harmony Centre—Penang’s first interfaith communal building and, most recently, the Kedah Digital Library, which won gold at the PAM (Pertubuhan Akitek Malaysia) Awards 2022’s Adaptive Reuse Category, giving her a total of seven design awards in the last four years.
