PINNACLE @ DUXTON
Singapore has long been known for it's cutting-edge public housing program, dating back to the 1960's when the
nation's public housing agency the Housing and Development Board (HDB) was formed. Since then, residential conditions
in the city-state have transformed from squalid slums into modernist high-rise towers sprinkled across the country, hous-
ing 80% of the nation's population of 5.4 million. HDB has managed to avoid the nightmarish conditions that plague
public housing developments in many countries with innovative home ownership & racial integration schemes, along
with the provision of community amenities and parks within public housing blocks and estates.
Soaring at 50-storeys,
tively to a myriad of planning constraints. It boldly demonstrates a sustainable and liveable urban high-rise high-density
living and initiates an innovative typology of public communal spaces that are metaphorically reclaimed from the air.On
the 26th and 50th storey, continuous Sky Gardens weave through the seven tower blocks, forming a simple yet powerful
sculptural skyline that creates a strong identity for the project. With it's latest innovative public housing developments,
Singapore continues to not only push the boundaries of creating affordable mass market housing in dense cities, but also
exploring prototypes for future urbanism.
