Singapore has an innovative new way to design its buildings | Pioneers for Our Planet
Singapore has engaged a new approach to construction called biophilic design. It means architects embrace nature in their design, bringing nature into the city, replacing columns, walls and neon with trees, leaves and insects. Biophilic design turns cities into engines of environmental wellbeing with benefits not just for nature but the human beings that live there too.

Singapore buildings must meet higher sustainability standards to be certified green
Buildings in Singapore must now meet higher sustainability standards to be certified green. A new portal to cut down time needed to submit building plans for approval is also in the works. Residential buildings have to be at least 60% more energy efficient than 2005 levels in order to earn the Super Low Energy label. The new standard was developed as part of an enhanced Green Mark certification scheme. Under the changes, new and existing buildings will have to place greater emphasis on areas such as smart technology and climate change resilience.

You Won’t Believe the Scale of this Singapore Residential Building! | Smithsonian Channel
The task was to build the world’s tallest public residential buildings, right in the heart of Singapore. As if that wasn’t daunting enough, the 7,534 foot towers would also be connected to each other by sky bridges, 65 feet wide.

When it comes to design, the word unique is one that is so overused these days that it’s started to lose its value.
However, I’ve got no hesitation using unique to describe the project we’re looking at here – it’s The Interlace … a CapitaLand development in Singapore.

Buildings in Singapore must now meet higher sustainability standards to be certified green. A new portal to cut down time needed to submit building plans for approval is also in the works. Residential buildings have to be at least 60% more energy efficient than 2005 levels in order to earn the Super Low Energy label. The new standard was developed as part of an enhanced Green Mark certification scheme. Under the changes, new and existing buildings will have to place greater emphasis on areas such as smart technology and climate change resilience.

The Interlace apartments feature stacked building blocks in an hexagonal pattern, and offers affordable housing in Singapore
With its 31 stacked blocks and hexagonal plan,
The Interlace is far from standard tower block design
Trends editorial director Paul Taylor looks at this
dramatic design by OMA/Ole Scheeren
When it comes to design, the word unique is one that is so overused these days that it’s started to lose its value.
However, I’ve got no hesitation using unique to describe the project we’re looking at here – it’s The Interlace … a CapitaLand development in Singapore.
Firstly, there’s the underlying philosophy behind the project – that high end residential projects by world renowned architectural firms should be accessible to a wide range of people … and not just an elite few.
And then there’s the design itself … by Ole Scheeren for distinguished international firm OMA.
This is no standard response to multi-residential projects which usually result in a huddle of separate high-rise towers. Instead, Scheeren has arranged 31 stacked blocks in a spectacular hexagonal pattern on the eight hectare siite.
Each of these blocks is six storeys high – with a maximum height reaching up to 24 storeys – to provide apartments for 1000 households.
These interlocking blocks resemble a vertical village, complete with cascading sky gardens … and both public and private roof terraces.
But for Scheeren, the design is as much about the open spaces created between the blocks as the dramatic effect of stacking them.
Not only do the openings help maximize the views for residents and allow light and breezes to penetrate, they also create sky gardens for outdoor living.
Together with the eight themed courtyards and children’s playgrounds, the sky gardens contribute to another underlying concept of The Interlace – to encourage a sense of community and multi-generational interaction for its residents.
