Arbour Walk

View of a landscaped pathway between lush greenery and trees leading to modern residential apartments with balconies, under a partly cloudy sky.

Pockets of greenery can be found throughout the site, creating a tapestry for residents. A contiguous landscape zone spanning across the edge of the site with the variety of plants selected meticulously, surrounds each amenity zone to create pockets of greenery. Hidden beneath the landscape, planters of 1.5m depth sit.

Soiling purely via dumper and only having access to travel planter by planter as this was a raised E-deck without tower crane access. Manpower was also required to manoeuvre 6m tall palms to their locations. This was especially challenging due to the current pandemic situation, the given time constraints and the monsoon season. 

Central Lawn

High-rise apartment buildings surrounding a swimming pool and landscaped garden area.

This carefully designed lawn acts as a central gathering area, offering a tranquil, multifunctional space where residents can relax, socialize, and enjoy outdoor activities in the heart of the condominium.

Eco Pond

Modern garden with a wooden walkway crossing over a pond with lily pads, surrounded by lush green trees and shrubbery.

Eco Pond weaves interlocking layers of uncluttered green cooled by the presence of water space creating pockets of relaxing ambiance for conversations and strolls for the residents.

Green Belt

A peaceful outdoor garden patio with a walking path, lush green plants, trees, and a shaded seating area with a cushioned bench.

A welcoming presence of nature accompanies your walk back home and throughout the development. The landscape, along with the changing colours of flowers, spanning throughout every pocket available reminds you that home a is a safe space of enjoyment and relaxation.

Aqua Zone

A modern apartment complex with multiple high-rise buildings surrounding a swimming pool area with lounge chairs. The scene is lush with tropical green plants and trees, with a partly cloudy sky above.

Apart from immersing yourself in pools of tranquility. The refreshing 100-metre Infinity Pool and 50-metre Lap Pool is situated amongst a lush green sanctuary of shade, colour and beauty which softens any thoughts of rush. A tranquil retreat right at the doorstep.

Hydrotherapy Pool

Swimming pool area with lounge chairs and lush palm trees, surrounded by tall modern apartment buildings under a partly cloudy sky.

The protruding planters creates a soft partition among the hydrotherapy pool users. Maintaining physical barrier yet allowing some visual porosity and noise to pass. Ease of accessibility is a challenge for maintenance because of the water body surrounding the pocket planters making it a challenge.
