这座104.5米高的建筑位于新加坡历史悠久的乌节路附近,由太古地产委托建造,是赫斯维克事务所在亚洲的首个住宅项目,对它的地理位置产生了独特的回应,使城市公寓生活与自然融为一体。
Located in the historic Orchard Road Neighbourhood of Singapore and commissioned by Swire Properties, the 104.5 metre building - the first residential project in Asia by the studio - offers a unique response to its location that entwines nature with city apartment living.
该项目的设计类似于一把脊椎刀刃:简单的垂直流线和纤细的窗户构成了刀刃,在它们之间设有宽敞的花园阳台。
该设计方法为20个公寓单元赋予了隐私,并在核心提供了一个宽敞的中央居住空间。
新奇的混凝土墙是用新加坡地形图塑造而成的,该地形图已被抽象以创建独特的立体纹理。
EDEN is designed to resemble a spine blade: simple vertical rectilinear plains with slim windows form the blade with generous garden balconies situated in between. This approach grants privacy for each of the twenty apartments and allows for a generous central living space that forms the heart of each residence. The unconventional concrete walls are moulded with a topographical map of Singapore’s terrain which has been abstracted to create a unique three-dimensional texture.
每套公寓创建花园的设计重现了曾经无处不在的城市家庭中的青翠花园通道,为回应李光耀最初将新加坡视为“城市中的花园”的构想,
该设计通过悬空花园将新加坡的景观从地面延伸到建筑物,将室内生活空间与户外相连,提供新加坡的绿色景观。
The focus on creating a garden for each apartment is a response to the disconnection between high rise apartments and the lush greenery at street level in Singapore. Responding to Lee Kuan Yew’s original vision of Singapore as a ‘city in a garden’, the design extends the landscape of Singapore upwards through the building with a series of hanging gardens, connecting the interior living space with the outdoors, providing views of Singapore’s green landscape.
