HDB CANBERRA VISTA,
Singapore

Situated next to the Canberra MRT station, Canberra Vista sees a modern approach to redefining urban living. A short stroll through the park connector takes residents to the main throughfare of the precinct, facilitating a seamless commuting experience.

A total of 15 residential blocks with 23 community living rooms,  fitness centres and gardens in abundance span the area. The expansive land size enables the team to combine flexibility of space with enhanced functionalities and facilities in the estate. Canberra Vista’s pristine location also translates into short walking distances to the nearby community hubs and park.

The monochromatic design of the blocks pays tribute to the black and white bungalows in the area. This minimalistic colour adaptation is accompanied by thin rhythmic lines along the length of the façades, evoking the image of gentle rainfall. The common areas also embody the theme of rain, featuring designs based on patterns reminiscent of puddles and ripples. The biophilic environment allows residents to immerse in nature, while circular pergolas cater for more intimate social gatherings and interactions.

Canberra Vista places strong emphasis on sustainability, featuring multiple connections towards water bodies and other natural elements. It attained the Green Mark Super Low Energy (SLE) certification based on its low energy consumption and sustainable measures. The buildings are designed to mitigate heat gain, while smart lighting systems are implemented along pathways and corridors to reduce electricity consumption during lull periods.
