CapitaLand appoints Moshe Safdie as lead designer for Bishan Central condo

CapitaLand Residential Singapore says it has appointed renowned international architect Moshe Safdie as the lead designer for its condominium at Bishan Central.

Located a convenient five-minute walk to the Bishan transportation hub and Junction 8 shopping mall, the new residential development will have approximately 540 units designed for cosmopolitan living.

For the Bishan development, Moshe Safdie has introduced a strong and distinctive stepping form that provides for private garden spaces for a large number of the units. There will be two 38-storey towers linked by three bridging “sky gardens”, which offer opportunities for commonly shared garden and leisure spaces. Residents on the upper floors will enjoy views of Bishan Park.

The 11,997-square-metre (129,137 square feet) site at Bishan Central has an estimated gross floor area of about 58,786 square metres (632,770 square feet). CapitaLand has partnered Mitsubishi Estate Asia, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. (MEC), to jointly develop the Bishan condominium. CapitaLand will be the lead development manager for the project, responsible for the full spectrum of sales and marketing, product design and development, and project management.
