Hanging Garden in CBD – A Fusion of “Archi-Nature”

Category E: Special Categories (Retrofitting)

Architect: AgFacadesign in collaboration with Tierra Singapore

Client / Owner: East Coast (Cecil) Investment Pte Ltd

The architect created an elevated green atrium which thoroughly transformed the quality of spaces in this old office building in the city.

This is an intelligent effort with sustainability in mind. The architect identified a great opportunity in the existing structural framework to create a matrix of vertical greenery and planters. The façade was also modified to bring ventilation into the space, while modernizing the building outlook.

The green atrium within adds a new dimension to the fabric of the city streetfront, and animates the façade especially when lit at night. This project contributed positively to the urbanscape of downtown Singapore by creating a pleasant environment sustainably to benefit workers in the CBD.
