2019 DCC Award Winner
Karpal Singh Promenade, Bomanite Malaysia

First Place: Cast-in-place – Stamped / Over 5000 SF
 

This multi-faceted promenade extends two kilometers along the coast in Penang, Malaysia.  Decorative concrete treatments include a scalloped border separating the fishscale portion from the beach-like sandscape, circular seating, pedestrian walkways, a “Sunbird” feature, a sculpture base and a stylized conch shell under the pergola.  Two decorative pedestals covered in exposed aggregate are home to a commemorative plaque and poem.  The judges admired the various textures and colors, and commented on the difficulty of installing it with no bleeding.
