新加坡南海灘開發項目位于新加坡市中心的濱海區和市政區之間，涵蓋了整個城市街區。同時把新建筑與現有經過翻修后的建筑和多功能建筑相結合，形成了一個高效節能，包含了商店、咖啡館、餐廳、一個酒店和公共空間的，將生活和工作結合在一起的新城市街區。一條寬闊的景觀步行街——就像一條穿過場地的綠色的脊柱，有一個巨大的天篷保護著，讓這塊公共空間免受來自熱帶氣候的影響以及陽光的直射。

兩棟通過這條綠色脊柱相互連接的大樓在場地中分別朝向北面和南面，其中朝南的大樓主要是用作酒店和公寓，而朝北的大樓主要是辦公樓。它們的立面都采用了柔和的弧線形狀，與下面起伏的天蓬穹頂造型相一致，這種造型在一定程度上能夠引導自然風形成氣流，以降低地面空間的溫度。而這兩棟高層建筑也重新詮釋了新加坡人對“花園中的城市”的追求，它們通過郁郁蔥蔥的空中花園相交在一起，還能欣賞到城市和中央商業區的壯麗景色。在較低的樓層上，可以很容易的看到街對面的19 世紀萊佛士酒店，位于美芝路附近的四棟前軍事建筑已被很好的修復，并點綴了一些成年的樹木，這些樹木在這里也是受到保護的。

在主要交通路線和公共空間上方的天篷穹頂上面的鋼帶和鋁制百葉窗呈弧線形狀，并在靠近邊緣的地方呈傾斜狀，這樣可以很好地與海灘路上的建筑銜接在一起。這些鋼帶通過一些細長的柱子支撐起來，而在東西立面上有一系列垂直的百葉窗，通過精心調整后的這些百葉可以很好的促進自然通風。從入口處到上面的天篷處是一個弧形形狀，能起到風穴的作用，并能夠將普通的微風引入空間，促進自然通風。天蓬穹頂的下面是一系列較小的建筑和具有靈活功能的活動空間。并做到了雨水收集系統與一系列環保策略相結合，該項目的目標就是要拿到“白金”級的綠色環保標志。創建出這樣一個開放式的步行公共區域，車輛都會進入地下停車場，下客點被放置在場地邊緣，公共交通通過一個條直接的“綠色”脊柱與 Esplanade 地鐵站整合在了一起。

The South Beach development covers an entire city block between the Marina and Civic District in the heart of downtown Singapore. Combining new construction with the restoration of existing buildings,the mixed-use, energy efficient new urban quarter brings together places to live and work with shops,cafes, restaurants, a hotel and public spaces. A wide landscaped pedestrian avenue - a green spine -weaves through the site and is protected by a large canopy, which shelters the light-filled public spaces beneath from the extremes of the tropical climate.

Two interconnected pairs of towers stand towards the north and south of the site, connected by the green spine - the south towers are divided between a hotel and apartments, while the north towers contain offices. Their facades extend into a gentle arc, which continues the language of the undulating canopy below - they are angled to capture prevailing winds and direct air flow to cool the ground level spaces. Reinterpreting the Singaporean ideal of the ‘city in a garden’ in a high-rise form, the towers are intersected by densely planted sky gardens with impressive views of the city and Central Business District. At a lower level, the treatment of the perimeter buildings is sensitive to the scale of the nineteenth century Raffles Hotel on the opposite side of the street -the four adjacent former military buildings along Beach Road have been carefully restored and are interspersed with mature trees, which have been conserved on the site.

The canopy’s ribbons of steel and aluminium louvres flex above the primary circulation routes and public spaces, and dip near the edges to meet the Beach Road buildings. The ribbons are supported by slender pillars and rise up the exposed east and west elevations of the towers to form a series of vertical louvres, which are carefully angled to encourage natural ventilation. The entrance to the canopy rises up to form an arc, which acts as a wind scoop, drawing the prevailing breezes through the space and promoting natural ventilation. Beneath the canopy are a series of smaller buildings and flexible spaces for functions and events. Combining rainwater harvesting with a range of environmental strategies, the development achieves a Green Mark ‘Platinum’Rating. Creating a highly permeable pedestrian public realm, vehicle access to underground parking and drop off points are placed around the edges of the site, and public transport is integrated via a direct ‘green’ link to Esplanade MRT station.
