SINGAPORE | BCI ASIA TOP 10 ARCHITECTS & DEVELOPERS 2019
Nestled in Singapore’s Leonie Hill, New Futura’s two 36-storey condominium towers feature rigorous patterns, bold curves and precise detail—creating a distinct figure in the city’s skyline that responds to the energetic urban context.
The curvilinear design language is translated throughout—from the crown, towers and sky gardens to the landscape, podium and amenities. The reflective sculpted metal façade changes colour with the weather and time of day, contributing to the active nature of the design.
The towers are linked by a bridge, which is bifurcated to preserve view corridors and to allow sunlight into the parking area below. Public and private spaces are woven together throughout, with six sky gardens, shared sky pools and lounging areas punctuating the glass façade at varied intervals. Asymmetrical overhangs create gradual steps that facilitate an energetic transition from top to bottom and weave together dispersed green spaces. The generous use of wood blends seamlessly into the terraced garden spaces.
