South Beach Residences Singapore

South Beach

Developed by a joint venture between CDL and the IOI Group, South Beach is located next to Esplanade MRT and between Raffles Place Hotel and Suntec City. It will blend four historic buildings – three former army blocks and the Non-Commissioned Officers Club built in 1952 – with two newly-built towers together with a 29,000 sq ft private club.

Upon completion, South Beach will have an approximate of 49,000sq metre of office space, 7,900sq metre of retail space, 651 hotel rooms, 190 luxurious residential units and a private club with 2,700sq metre area. The unit mix for South Beach Residences comprises of 2 bedroom units, 3 bedroom units, 4 bedroom units, 3 bedroom penthouses, 4 bedroom penthouses and a 5 bedroom penthouse, with sizes ranging from 969 sq feet to 5,768 sq feet.

South Beach is just next door to Esplanade Circle Line Station with just a mere 2 minutes’ train ride to to Orchard and 6 minutes to Raffles Place. It is also just 3 minutes’ drive to Shenton Way and 4 minutes’ drive to Orchard Road. South Beach Residences is highly accessible for drivers as it is near to Nicoll Highway and is easily connected to ECP, CTE, KPE and AYE.

When it comes to dining and retail options, South Beach Residences’ future residents have plenty of shopping choices such as Suntec City, Marina Square, Raffles City Shopping Centre and Bugis Junction are just within walking distances from it. South Beach Residences is also near to many food centres such as Albert Centre Market & Food Centre, Golden Mile Food Centre, Hong Lim Market & Food Centre and Tekka Centre.

South Beach is a landmark project in great location of Singapore that one should never miss. South Beach development is one of the very first and probably only large scale mixed use projects with office, hotel, retails and residential development right next to MRT in the heart of city of Singapore.

South Beach Design Concept

Designed by world renowned architect Fosters + Partners. The Beach Road development occupies an entire city block in downtown Singapore, between the Marina Center and the Civic District. Conceived as a sustainable urban quarter, the project combines new construction with the restoration of existing buildings, and brings together places to live and work with shops, cafes, restaurants, a hotel and new public spaces. A wide landscaped pedestrian avenue – a green spine – weaves through the site and is protected by a large canopy, which shelters the light-filled spaces beneath from the extremes of the tropical climate.

The gently curving form of the two towers is a continuation of the undulating canopy below. Their facades are angled to capture prevailing winds and direct air flow to cool the ground level spaces. The south tower is divided between a hotel and apartments, while the north tower is made up of office floors.

Continuing the Singaporean ideal of the ‘city in a garden’, the buildings incorporate densely planted sky gardens, with uninterrupted views of the Central Business District. The treatment of the perimeter buildings is sensitive to the scale of the nineteenth century Raffles Hotel on the opposite side of the street – the four adjacent former military buildings along Beach Road are carefully restored and interspersed by conserved mature trees.

The canopy’s ribbons of steel and aluminium louvres flex above the primary circulation routes and public spaces and dip near the edges to meet the Beach Road buildings. The ribbons are supported by slender pillars and rise up the exposed east and west elevations of the towers to form a series of vertical louvres, which are carefully angled to encourage natural ventilation.

The entrance to the canopy rises up to form an arc, which acts as a wind scoop, drawing the prevailing breezes through the space and promoting natural ventilation. Beneath the canopy are a series of smaller buildings and flexible spaces for functions and events. Combining rainwater harvesting with a range of environmental strategies, the development aims to achieve the Green Mark ‘Platinum’ Rating. The ground level is entirely pedestrianised, with individual vehicle access to underground parking and drop off points placed around the edges of the site, and public transport is integrated via a direct ‘green’ link to Esplanade MRT station.
