In 2015 Carve and Playpoint won a tender for an adventurous sliding attrac-tion inside the Jewel Changi Airport development, designed by Moshe Safdie Architects.
​The attraction is located in the Canopy Park on the highest level of the new development, which includes a shopping mall, attraction park and a garden, all in front of Terminal 1. In this canopied park, more than 1400 trees and palms will be housed alongside many other attractions. Creating the ultimate airport experience, and convincing travellers to go through Singapore’s Changi airport instead of others.
In Carve’s original concept, the playground was designed like a sculpture resembling a gemstone; with parts that are carved out - the slides, stairs and rope climbs - revealing the coloured interior of the gem.
In this way the playground presents itself in duality; a gem balancing on the fifth ring of Jewel with a slide attraction hidden inside.
At first the sinuous shell was designed with mirror tiling over the whole structure. During the design process with the client this manifested as a continuous and seamless polished steel skin wrapping around the three cones holding up the large access platform. A shiny jewel in the green forest valley of the park. It is an object that will attract people from afar. The shell, with its liquid mercury form, borrows the motion and aesthetic of its surroundings. Visitors can experience infinite and surreal reflections of themselves. The rubber patterning on the floor was even designed to create a spiraling abstract reflection in the shell of the playground.
