A Biophilic Conservatory
Located along Orchard Road in Singapore, Citi Wealth Hub re-casts the typical wealth hub as a ‘banking conservatory’, according to MOD design director, Colin Seah, to challenge the conventions associated with a high net-worth banking experience.
“Inspired by the site’s soaring glass-lined atrium, our aim was to create a focal point that would anchor the entire experience. We created a lush thriving indoor conservatory and paired it with a series of lifestyle-inspired spaces nestled within or organized around it: observation deck, feature bar, banquette seating, lounge niches and garden meeting pods,” Seah elaborates.
“Although drawing from the virtues of biophilic design, the scheme aims to create a cultured conservatory with carefully detailed planter-box arrangements, sinuous to allow for pathways and meeting spaces to be carved out amid the landscape. The choreographed verdant and lush greenery evoke an atmosphere where everything seems to flourish in a natural and sustainable manner, a nod to the ideals of wealth management”.
