A brief is a short version of a case study.
Newton Suites is a 118-unit residential building designed to show that environmentally sustainable design and high-rise luxury are compatible. The 36-story apartment tower’s exterior uses sunshading elements, protruding balconies, and expansive windows to manage the sun’s light and energy potential, while vertical green walls and communal gardens bring lush greenery to the skies. The S$23.5 million project uses passive cooling techniques to combine outdoor and indoor living space in a high-rise building, offering a model for other tropical cities.
