Challenge
The design brief for this competition scheme called for the extension of the heritage retail precinct of Singapore’s Holland Village, a shopping and dining destination.
Solution
Benoy’s design for Holland Village reflects a low-rise urban village with an integrated, usable public realm. The design has mediated old and new, whilst adding unique elements to curate a renewed identity for the district. The ground plane provides a ‘shop front’ space that serves retail, office and residential offerings, intertwined with landscaped streets and public squares. An extensive green roofscape has also been introduced to provide a flexible offering for users.
Result
Benoy’s design for Holland Village provides a human-scale, urban district that aims to deliver vibrant pockets of reformed space for the whole community to enjoy.
