Nestled above JW Marriott Singapore South Beach and located at the intersection of Singapore’s arts and heritage districts, South Beach Residences is part of an integrated development jointly developed by City Developments Limited and IOI Properties Group. Comprising 190 residential units located within the upper 22 storeys of the 45-storey building, South Beach Residences commands handsome views of the area while remaining close to world-class theatres in Esplanade and Marina Bay Sands, as well as 16 dining and lifestyle concepts within the South Beach enclave.
From the get-go, South Beach Residences already scores points for its unique architecture as part of a sustainable urban quarter. London-based architects Foster + Partners, known for its design of Apple stores around the world, has cleverly incorporated Singapore’sreputation as a concrete jungle into the design of the new towers. Developed to capitalise on our tropical climate, the towers’ curvaceous heights house plants and trees that populate sky gardens, roof terraces and balconies, while tiled panels deflect heat from buildings. The structure protects visitors, guests and residents with a distinctive microclimatic canopy that acts as a water harvesting system, converting rainwater for other uses.
The penthouse units are spread across the 42nd and 45th fioors of the building, commanding magnificent views of the city. Shown here, a unit designed by celebrity interior designer Peter Tay.
