Gardens by the Bay
Wilkinson Eyre · Singapore, Singapore · 2012
Gardens by the Bay is a prominent horticultural destination in Singapore, distinguished by its innovative cooled conservatories and Supertrees. Completed in 2012, its design integrates nature and technology on a grand scale. The project reflects Singapore's commitment to urban greening and sustainability, transforming reclaimed land into a significant public garden. The two main conservatories, the Flower Dome and Cloud Forest, feature climatically controlled environments enabling the cultivation of diverse plant species. These structures stand as notable examples of contemporary architectural engineering, employing advanced glazed enclosures and environmental control systems. The Supertrees are vertical gardens clad with various plant species, also serving as environmental features like rainwater harvesting and solar power collection.
