Eden, Swire Properties
Integrating signage with its environment
Eden is a luxury residential development in Singapore’s Orchard Road neighbourhood. Designed by Heatherwick Studio for Swire properties, the 26-storey building contains just 20 apartments, fronted by distinctive curved balconies filled with hanging gardens.
Singapore is known as ‘the city in a garden’, and the design vision was to celebrate this idea by forging a close relationship between the built and natural environments. We worked closely with Heatherwick Studio to bring this concept to life through a bespoke signage and wayfinding system. The resulting signage elements responded organically and sympathetically to the materials and forms of the space, often integrating or entwining with natural and architectural features.
