Southern Tainan Sub-Central District Park, Tainan, Taiwan

The Dream Lake, also known as the Dutch Basin, was an important water source during the Dutch Colonial era. The Lake is also the source of huxi River, an important waterway in Tainan City. To restore Zhuxi River to its historical glory and expansion, geological drilling surveys were carried out with landscape designs and well-balanced site excavation and landfilling strategies. Curved water banks with layered wetland vegetation teeming with fireflies help to restore the region’s natural ecologies.

Wooden platforms were constructed on the shores of the Dream Lake for visitors to enjoy its serene beauty. Open waters provide a diverse habitat for many organisms. Flat farmlands were transformed into an urban wilderness with complex landscapes. Footpaths traverse
along changing contours, allowing visitors to appreciate the seasonal beauty of the Park
from different viewing angles. For flood control, the open water bodies are connected to
surrounding drainage systems to accommodate massive runoff during heavy rain. These
water bodies also help to modulate urban microclimates to offer a more comforting
ambient temperature and humidity while perfecting the ecological museum and park
located in the heart of Tainan City.

Heritage (Restoration/ Conservation) Category

Giraud Gallery, Moscow, Russia

Giraud Gallery is one of the most beautiful architectural monuments of the historical past of Moscow, a cultural heritage site, restored by the KR Properties. The building has travelled through time in a rather sorry state with only the main entrance and a projection wall of the heritage building remaining. We knew that we would have to do our best in order to achieve the results, similar to those of the original owner Claude Giraud at the time of construction in the XIX century. He wanted the building to become an art gallery where artists would meet.

Having the experience of restoration of the Vsevolzhskikh Estate we took upon the Giraud Gallery restoration. We have engaged most renown restorers and artists in order to painstakingly reconstruct every square centimeter of the building, and with the investment of over 10 million Dollars by KR Properties we have executed this restoration project to its full extent. As result Giraud Gallery has been reborn.

To the present day Giraud Gallery has been awarded as the best restoration project not only in Russia but also abroad. In the nearest future this art gallery shall host art exhibitions, painting master classes and art courses. See you in Giraud Gallery!

Master Plan Category

Ferencváros, Budapest, Hungary             

With its consistent work from 1992 to the present day, Budapest Metropolitan District 9 Ferencváros Local Government has been implementing a development plan in the central part of Ferencváros for the purpose of urban renovation which is uniquely comprehensive and complex (social, value-preserving) even by international standards. 

At the same time as the urban regeneration operation was launched, a regulation plan was compiled to serve as a framework for the project, the key objectives of which included increasing the proportion of green areas, renovating buildings with architectural value and constructing new residential buildings and institutions which match the existing cityscape while preserving the layout and character of the city. In a way practically unique in Europe, the ratio of green areas in central Ferencváros has been greatly increased without making major modifications to the original urban texture, thus creating a garden city in the centre of the capital. Based on the preservation of values, the approach to the renovation of historic Ferencváros, along with numerous cultural and community building schemes organised and supported by the local government, has contributed to the emergence of a specifically local community identity that appreciates the values of earlier times.

Using its own assets, Ferencváros has encouraged, and will continue to do so in the future, projects in the fields of housing/offices/services/industry which show evidence of environmental awareness, both during construction and in the subsequent maintenance phase. Ferencváros local government has defined education, research, culture and science as breakout points. In order to support these fields and to promote development, the local government has amended local regulatory plans to ensure the implementation of investments and has made considerable financial sacrifices to develop its own institutional system.

Public Infrastructures/ Amenities Category

Kaohsiung Main Public Library, Kaohsiung, Taiwan

Emerging from the depths of umber and green, Kaohsiung Public Library is a spectacle of organic architecture that, by means of a suspended structure system, offers an extraordinary reading experience amidst nature, a traditional access to information with new technology, and an exemplary façade to distinguish itself as a cultural landmark of Kaohsiung. 

The ‘Glazed Box’ features visual transparency and leading-edge structural deviation from standard core strength that is evenly dispersed between 8 floors and 1 basement level into four pillars supported by high strength cables at 12cm diameter, in contrast to visually impairing 90cm columns. It is an extraordinary feat of public information storage and an alternative space for active outdoor engagement. The library reading experience is enhanced by a carved center ‘Light Well’ that emits filtered natural daylight. An open rooftop for multifunctional purposes and vertical green walls parallel that of the landscape to produce an airy glass enclosure – a mélange of earth and sky. 

The afterthought is that of levitating mass, engulfing just a fraction of the overall greenery that subsumes it. The library is a breathing structure well-integrated into the play of urban fabric meeting natural greenery: discreet, yet a perfect balance of both worlds. Located at the center of Sanduo shopping district and the port of Kaohsiung, it is a convenient place for repose. “Reading beneath the trees” is at the heart of the project, emulating Kaohsiung’s cultural traditions while providing refuge from Asia’s subtropical climate. The apex of the design intent is achieved in an atmospheric sustainable public infrastructure that entices in-person visitation and promotes traditional reading methods in a digital era. The library is a government investment in knowledge and culture; more importantly, it is a destination point.

d'Leedon, Singapore

Strategically located in the heart of District 10, d’Leedon sits on an expansive 840,049ft2, 99-year leasehold site along Leedon Heights. The largest private residential development in Singapore, d’Leedon is also the first high-rise residential project designed by Zaha Hadid Architects.
d’Leedon comprises seven 36-storey towers offering 1,703 apartments as well as 12 exclusive semi-detached houses. Surrounded by good-class bungalows and mainly 12-storey condominiums, it is the only residential site in the vicinity which stands at 36 stories tall, hence offering unobstructed views of Singapore’s skyline. Given its unique architectural lines and soaring towers, d’Leedon is distinguishable as an iconic landmark.

Zaha Hadid’s proposal is generated by the study of the existing alignments, the main axis for Farrer Road and the surrounding good-class bungalows, which are used to draw a series of lines highly connected to the neighbourhood. The flowing lines are organised in bands which are used to position the towers with optimum orientation and views out to the city as well as to develop different landscape features and activities.

Residential (High Rise) Category

Silversea, Singapore

Located in the East Coast region of Singapore, the luxurious 383-unit Silversea is an architectural expression of the silvery horizon where sky meets sea. Sheathed in glass with balconies that twist skyward, Silversea offers floor-to-ceiling vistas of unblocked views of the sea. Sky promenades situated on the 11th floor allow residents to enjoy spectacular views of the vast horizon.

Silversea bears testimony to the developer’s long-term business foresight and commitment towards maximising the potential of a prime site. A former quasi-government-built housing estate which was subsequently privatised, the site was procured in 2006 in an en-bloc sale, at a time when the Singapore property market was still in recovery from the government’s suspension of land sales. The en-bloc sale was completed at a higher than expected unit land price at SGD$396 per square foot per plot ratio (psf ppr). 

Forgoing short term gains, the developer committed time and resources into the development of the product to address the needs and aspirations of homebuyers. This strategy proves right when the developer launched Silversea for sale in 2009. Riding on a crescendo of rising demand for property by international buyers, the premium quality and positioning of Silversea allowed it to be priced at the top end of the residential price spectrum. Silversea attests to high-rise liveability in a high-density urban landscape. 60% of the 220,000 sq ft site was freed up for lush grounds and provision of a full suite of amenities, despite the high costs associated with land in this particular location of Singapore, for the enjoyment of the residents. 

Today. Silversea has revitalised the entire East Coast area – bringing up property prices and gentrifying the neighbourhood. The standards it has set have also become a benchmark for upmarket properties and helped to demonstrate Singapore’s positioning as a world class.

The Mansions, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Completed in March 2014, The Mansions epitomizes the best-in-its-class of Parkhomes (highly-modified terrace homes) developed by Perdana ParkCity Sdn Bhd. Situated in the upscale, hilltop precinct of Desa ParkCity, Kuala Lumpur, The Mansions is a gated and guarded neighborhood consisting of 2 ½-, 3- and 3 ½-storey Parkhomes ranging in size from 460m2 to 670 m2. Blending grace with grandeur, The Mansions was specifically designed to confer upon its occupants the experience of an elegant bungalow lifestyle in highly-modified spacious terrace homes within an exclusive and secure environment.

Perched above deep gullies and steep rocky slopes, the Mansions Is a triumph over adversity. Taking advantage of The Mansions’ elevated site, the developer shaped the approach to create an elongated entrance driveway that takes in sweeping views of Kuala Lumpur City Centre and majestic hills, to heighten the sense of seclusion. Inspired place-making, luminous modern interiors, inventive landscape screenings, public art, a unique jungle walkway and delightful lighting solutions set new standards of livability that focuses unwaveringly on residents’ health and pleasure. The Mansions are cleverly arranged in small blocks angled away from one another to create small differentiated enclaves, making the whole neighborhood a rich tapestry of artfully designed spaces, allowing every occupant to savor a distinct vista from his resplendent residence.

With just 127 units on 7.93 hectares (16 units per hectare) The Mansions compares favorably in terms of density with typical semi-detached and detached housing density of 12 and 8.5 units per hectare respectively. Significantly, the higher density was achieved with an extraordinary 33% land allocation for open space and community facilities despite an inordinate proportion of inaccessible hill slopes. The Mansions shows that a sound understanding of the fundamentals, design savvy and thoughtful place-making can virtually transform terrace homes in the minds of the occupants, into mansions.

Menara Shell, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

A state-of-the-art, Grade-A green office tower in Kuala Lumpur Sentral CBD, which is a visionary and next-generation “city-within-a-city” built around Malaysia’s largest public transportation hub, Stesen Sentral Kuala Lumpur.

This architectural sensitivity is also reflected in the way the 36-storey tower was thoughtfully set back from the main road during its design stage, to create a soft scape and create extra room for internal traffic circulation.

Menara Shell is MRCB Land’s commitment to transforming the lives of Malaysians while caring for the planet. Recognition from the FIABCI World Prix d’Excellence Awards further reinforces the company’s dedication to that end.
