Located at the heart of Singapore’s financial district, CapitaSpring is a biophilic skyscraper defined by a dynamic interplay of orthogonal lines, lush greenery, and contrasting textures, whose design seeks to continue Singapore’s pioneering vertical urbanism.

At multiple elevations, the vertical elements comprising the building’s exterior are pulled apart to allow glimpses into the green oases blooming from the base, core, and rooftop “sky garden.”

The first eight floors of the tower accommodate a wide range of facilities such as a swimming pool, jacuzzi, jogging track, gymnasium, social kitchen, residents’ lounge, and barbecue pits.

The top 29 floors offer premium office spaces with panoramic views of the Singapore River and Marina Bay.

A vertical park in the middle of the tower forms a spiraling promenade ascending among tropical tree trunks and canopies.

At the core of the building are four connected levels of organic softscape – an open-air garden for work, strolls, relaxation, exercise, and events.

Meandering garden paths create natural entryways into the City Room, an 18-meter-high generous open space at the foot of the tower that creates shelter from the tropical sunlight and welcomes tenants into separate lobbies for the offices and residences, and shoppers and diners into the food center within the tower’s podium.

Leveraging both technology and unprecedented integration with natural elements, CapitaSpring has been awarded Green Mark Platinum & Universal Design GoldPLUS certifications by the Building and Construction Authority of Singapore.
