Heatherwick Studio was commissioned to design an apartment building in the historic Newton district of Singapore.Inspired by the vision of a "city in a garden" imagined by Singapore's first prime minister, Lee Kuan Yew, 50 years ago, and by the lush tropical setting of the area, the studio's design departs radically from the glass and steel tower typology. The studio set out to craft homes within a garden that also harnessed all the benefits of apartment living - a place where residents would feel connected to the city's tree-lined streets while enjoying views,light, and privacy.
