Funan – Capitaland has taken a bold step in creating a lifestyle destination and landmark project to cater for the tech savvy and socially astute public in the heart of Singapore’s CBD.

Live, Work and Play

Located at the heart of Singapore’s Civic & Cultural District at 109 North Bridge Road, Funan is owned by Capita Land Mall Trust and designed by Woods Bagot. Funan just held its groundbreaking ceremony early in September 2016 and will be relaunching in Q4 2019 on the site of the former Funan DigitaLife Mall. Building on its legacy as the definitive IT mall in Singapore over the last three decades, Funan will go beyond selling IT products to incorporating the tech experience throughout the entire development.
