\nConnecting residents to healthy living and outdoor lifestyles is the wonderfully unique Westwood Residences, Singapore\u2019s first bicycle-themed residential development with green and water-inspired features. This is a rare executive condo development within the non-HDB, landed Westwood Estate, in the sustainability-focused western regional centre of Jurong Lake District.
\nRenowned for creating unique lifestyle-themed residences, Koh Brothers Development in partnership with Heeton Homes are the brains behind this highly original concept. High-profile ADDP Architects put their skills to use on the development with landscaping by COEN Design International, which aims to \u201cunearth what is hidden and cultivate\u2026experiences that are both unique and vibrant\u201d.
\nThe project of 480 two- to five-bedroom units, set on a 520,000 sq ft plot with spacious yards, adopted a recreational-focused approach, leading to Westwood Residences attracting a Best Executive Condo Landscape Architectural Design win at the 8th\u00a0annual PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards (Singapore)\u00a0in October 2018.
\nThe BCA Green Mark certified District 2 development seeks to create a relaxed oasis for city dwellers, with an emphasis on recreation for all, from youngsters to their parents and older generations too.
\nThis year\u2019s head judge, Lim Wenhui, partner and director at award-winning SPARK Architects, praised the cycling-inspired landscape architecture injected into the Koh Brothers and Heeton Homes project.
\n\u201cWestwood Residences is designed with the savvy cyclist in mind, a truly unique bike-themed development. Unique landscape features include a BMX adventure park with a cycling track that connects the ground level to the podium roof garden,\u201d she noted. \u201cThe development gifts every household a free bike which is stored in an impressive bike parking zone in the basement.\u201d
\nAs well as Singapore\u2019s first-ever outdoor mini velodrome, with changing track gradients, there is also a kids\u2019 traffic garden with bicycle mounds, a cycling pitstop and even a maintenance area \u2013\u00a0 all of which are firsts for any residential development in Singapore.
\nThe landscaping and softscaping are themed too, with greenery running along the perimeter of the residences while flowering and secret pocket gardens, lawns, a leisure zone and al fresco pavilion are displayed around the development, inspiring a holistic sense of relaxation for residents. Interspersed within the lush landscaping of Westwood Residences are amenities that extend activities for the resident community. These include a dining pavilion with hotplate and grill, outdoor and indoor gym, tennis court, half basketball\/futsal court, kids\u2019 playground and club house. These ensure the grounds create a practical and attractive landscape for activities and social events, along with cleverly designed spaces for solitary moments.
\nAlong with cycling and green spaces, the outdoor architectural design weaves in impressive aqua-themed facilities for a fully immersive lifestyle landscape. This includes an Olympic-length lap pool, spa seats and hydrotherapy, water and sun decks, a kids\u2019 pool with aqua playground and spray jets, and lounge deck for grown-ups.
\nKoh Brothers Development and Heeton Homes\u2019 Westwood Residences stays true to the landscape architectural design concept of creating balance and harmony, and the results are original and dynamic.
