Prices start at SGD 1.8 million.<br \/>\nDesigned by four-time President\u2019s Design Award winner, Yip Yuen Hong of ip:li architects, Martin Modern draws inspirations from Good Class Bungalows (GCB) and the Botanic Gardens. 80 percent of the 1.6-hectare site will be dedicated to green and garden spaces, including a \u201csecret garden\u201d at the top of each of the project\u2019s towers.<br \/>\n\u201cWe want to redefine the current conventions of luxury living.
