    Gardens by the Bay

    This project was won in an international design competition as


    part of a team led by landscape architects Grant Associates.
    The masterplan for Marina South forms part of Singapores
    new Gardens by the Bay development and draws from the
    distinctive flora of the region to create a new destination in the
    city. It has been designed as a series of distinct ecosystems
    which will enable the gardens to function with maximum
    environmental efficiency.
    The garden at Marina South is home to some of the
    sites most spectacular structures, including a grove of
    supertrees reaching almost 40 metres in height and
    two cooled conservatories, which are among the largest
    climate-controlled glasshouses in the world. The cool-dry
    conservatory explores issues related to plants and people
    and incorporates a spectacular flower field with programmed
    changing displays. In contrast, the cool-moist conservatory
    focuses on plants and the planet, with a dramatic internal
    mountain and waterfall demonstrating subjects such as
    biodiversity. The structures form a new landmark for the city,
    enjoying views back across Marina Channel to Singapores
    city centre.
