•  The

challenge was to provide

a new lease of life not just by
developing an aKracLve
redesign of the streetscape
and waterfront but also to
address the perennial climate
problem, and to find ways to
miLgate against the
Singapore ambient
temperature and heavy
rainfall, without resorLng to
the tradiLonal scenario of
creaLng an internal air
condiLoned mall.
•  Passively reducing the
ambient temperature by 5
degrees.

MATERIAL USED
•  Known as the “Angels,” the
willowy umbrella-like
structures comprise ETFE
(Ethyl Tetra Fluro Ethylene)
cushioned canopies,
supported on steel frames.
CanLlevering over the roofs
of adjacent shop houses, the
Angels provide solar shading
and rain protecLon.
•  Tree planLng in the streets
provides further shading and
solar absorbency and the
installaLon of a feature
fountain in the centre of the
restaurant-lined courtyard
affords further visual and
cooled environmental
benefit.
