WEAVE: biophilic, experience-led destination
Benoy celebrates the opening of WEAVE at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) — a bold new lifestyle destination that reimagines the guest experience through biophilic architecture, sensory immersion and sustainable design.
Designed by Benoy, WEAVE sets a new benchmark for tropical, experience-led architecture in Singapore, a design-forward hub where architecture, nature and community seamlessly converge.
A living landscape inspired by nature
Spanning over 20,000 sqm across three interconnected levels, WEAVE blends lush greenery, organic forms and nature-integrated retail into a living environment that transforms throughout the day. Its architecture draws from the island’s natural topography and cultural richness, inviting guests on a journey that is both restorative and inspiring.
Azaria Lee stated, “WEAVE was envisioned as a living, breathing sanctuary, an architecture of movement, light and landscape. We sought to dissolve boundaries between indoor and outdoor, inviting guests to slow down, explore and reconnect with nature through spatial moments that surprise, shelter and inspire.”
A rainforest-inspired experience
Guided by a rainforest-inspired spatial concept, WEAVE unfolds from cool, shaded botanical valleys at the lower levels to vibrant floral terraces above. Natural textures, asymmetrical façades and open-air walkways foster a sense of fluidity and calm, while encouraging moments of community, rest and discovery.
Greening the guest experience
Sustainability is integrated in every level throughout WEAVE’s design, from ETFE canopies that reduce solar heat gain by up to 80%, to passive cooling, green walls, rainwater harvesting and recyclable structural materials. Together, these strategies support RWS’s ambition to become a carbon-neutral destination by 2030.
A gateway between nature, community and commerce
Strategically positioned within the wider RWS masterplan, WEAVE functions as a dynamic gateway, its central location linking key guest flows across the resort and iconic attractions, while shaping an immersive day-to-night journey through space, nature and experience.
Its distinctive Lifestyle Villas feature expansive glass façades and multi-storey decks that open to nature, overlooking lively corridors framed by greenery and seasonal activity. These spaces offer a vibrant platform where community and commerce meet, inviting both local and global brands to thrive.
Looking ahead
Benoy congratulates Resorts World Sentosa on the launch of WEAVE and is proud to have shaped its architectural vision. We look forward to seeing how this vibrant, nature-led destination invites people to explore, connect and linger.
