In a neighbourhood teeming with skyscrapers of glass and concrete, the warm tones of Midtown Modern’s twin residential towers stand out from the pack. Its tactile, down-to-earth construction promises a cosy garden home within. Indoors, rustic stone and masonry await amidst a forested garden. A resort-like urban sanctuary unfolds.

“Living in the city is coveted for its conveniences, but you don’t often have large green spaces to escape to. That’s why we’ve created a massive garden that residents can luxuriate in here at Midtown Modern,” says Cheng Hsing Yao, Group Managing Director of GuocoLand.

The lush, sprawling landscape on the third-storey garden is a key feature of Midtown Modern. Here, a thick canopy of trees and naturalistic landscape features provide a respite for the senses. This expanse of green sets Midtown Modern apart in an urban district so densely populated. A large lawn area beckons children to play, while numerous scenic spots invite calm and rejuvenation into busy lives.

Home extends beyond the apartment doorstep when you’re a Midtown Modern resident. Explore the development’s many common areas, and adapt it to suit your living, working, and entertainment needs. Use the plush, hotel-like lobby as a second workspace or meeting lounge, and read or meditate in the zen-like garden pavilions. Host your dinner party or wine tasting in the clubhouse and rooftop pavilions of the Garden Deck and rooftops, assisted by the generous range of kitchen equipment there.

With a space for every occasion and every resident, Midtown Modern’s flexible common areas accommodate your every need.

Opportunities to build a warm community of your own abound at every corner, whether it’s over watching football with fellow residents at the sports bar-themed pavilion, or meeting other young parents at the child-friendly lobby play space.

GuocoLand’s resource-efficient and community-minded approach towards urban design pre-empts the future of city living by encouraging communities of young families and working professionals to flourish together. In embracing these more sustainable ways of living, the Midtown Modern ecology is one of a better tomorrow.

Given this time of rapid ecological change, a futuristic home is also one that helps to safekeep today’s world for future generations. Midtown Modern’s innovative green features optimise the management of the entire residential ecosystem, from energy to water and waste, greenery to lighting and cooling systems.

With its sister projects Midtown Bay and Guoco Midtown both awarded Green Mark Award (Platinum) from the Building and Construction Authority (BCA), Midtown Modern homeowners are in the good hands of eco-conscious sustainability experts.

And when you venture out into Guoco Midtown, the extensive network of underpasses and sheltered walkways connect you to the city and the greater beyond. Celebrate an experience of the city where cars are no longer a necessity. With all the conveniences within this walkable city, and MRT lines that connect you to the rest of Singapore, you can be part of a greener future. At Midtown Modern, the future is already here.

Gardens in the Woods

Midtown Modern’s landscape design centres around the concept of ‘Gardens in the Woods’, featuring ten landscape settings with distinctive textures and terrains. Adopting the metaphor of an upward exploration into the mountains, this retreat into nature takes one from the cavern grotto at the arrival deck to a lush plateau on the third storey, and finally to the mountain peak at the rooftops.

Amidst these verdant settings, a full suite of residential amenities transforms this green sanctuary into an idyllic playground for all. From garden to Grand Lawn, lap pool to pavilion, Midtown Modern promises to surprise, delight, rejuvenate and excite at every turn.

MIDTOWN MODERN - Q&A

1. What is the architectural concept for Midtown Modern?

With Midtown Modern, we wanted to explore how we might create an experience that invites people to live in the city, yet create a rejuvenating environment that feels cocooned from the city. That was our main challenge.

2. What kind of feelings do you hope to evoke with the Midtown Modern experience?

Because we’re designing homes for people to build their lives upon, what I hope to evoke in residents is a feeling of warmth and intimacy – as if they are coming home to the comfortable companionship of a close friend. We went with concrete and brown masonry to create this sense of cosiness, even though many might say that luxury is expressed with steel and glass. With Midtown Modern, we’re creating a different expression of luxury that is warmer and more comfortable, especially given that many will call it home.

3. How does Midtown Modern bear the ip:li signature?

As with all my other projects, Midtown Modern is driven by the fundamental goal of designing for people, first and foremost. This is no earth-shattering concept, though it certainly is a very important one. Architecture is a backdrop against which people’s lives unfold; a site on which they build their history. It must be user-centric and livable. As an architect, I’m always looking to design robust spaces that encourage people to fully embrace living in their own homes – rather than being reluctant to do so because it’s too immaculate or precious. Midtown Modern exemplifies this with its rugged aesthetic. To some, it may read as Brutalist, but for me it’s not so much about the look as it is about a tactility and toughness that I’m after.

5. Many of your designs embody a sense of timelessness. How did you apply this philosophy with Midtown Modern?

It’s not up to me to say whether the design will be timeless, but I do aspire towards it. The architecture of Midtown Modern is inspired by the brick buildings of Midtown districts in other cities such as New York and London. The materiality of brick is one that stands the test of time, and I hope that many years down the road, people will still look to Midtown Modern and find its qualities refreshing.

6. How does Midtown Modern borrow from the best aspects of Martin Modern?

Martin Modern’s lush greenery and poetic spaces distinguished it from other luxury residential developments, and created a modern expression of livable luxury. We sought something similar with the garden sanctuary that we’re crafting here at Midtown Modern.

7. What does living well mean to you?

To me, living well means surrounding yourself with the people and things that you love. You don’t have to live in a very big space – you can live with a very small footprint, as long as it contains interesting nooks and corners that you can enjoy. The great trap of modern life is the belief that more is better, but I believe that going back to basics is the greater wisdom.
