空间广场上的第一个建筑是一座纯净的白色平房，作为一座别墅使用，但是将提供不同的感官体验，包括视觉的、由B&O系统提供的声效，特别委托制作的食物的气息。住宅使用了Poliform显示系统的衣柜，展示出了生活厨房用具。Poliform的空间将邀请不同的的客户坐下来吃饭。在顶层，Giorgetti展示了其艺术天赋，制作了毛绒沙发，床上用品和雕塑，这些家具被描绘成诗的序幕，这些家具按照价格谨慎地安置在木箱中，这些木箱由檀木和美国核桃制成。

当代的玻璃建筑位于综合体的中央，窗户的颜色五彩缤纷的，而Kartell设计的醒目的糖果色椅子在的地面上，室外的家具由意大利的Moooi和B&B设计，在四层的景观阳台上，玻璃建筑因为Moooi悬挂的由Raimond Puts设计的Raimond灯显得十分显眼。房屋中其他的家具商包括Acerbis, Cassina, Flos, Flexform, Fritz Hansen, Louis Poulsen, Moooi, Vitra以及其他的设计。

该三连建筑由Heritage House完成，具有工业风格的内饰。在二楼有两个有趣的阁楼，自然天光透过木椽射入。这些Maxalto零售店中典雅的沙发和床上用品有助于渲染情绪。在传统的房子最值得关注的地区是由B&B和Italia / maxalto设计的庭院，室内有三层楼高的垂直绿化墙。这个空间有7000平方英尺，是设计师最大的国际旗舰店。

本项目是空间家具的新亚洲家具设计中心，包括位于Bencoolen街中间的艺术和娱乐区。建筑安置一个独特的文物建筑保护区内，是宪报公布的历史集群，它包括两个保守的建筑–别墅和石门以及侧翼的填充单元。通过自适应和调整建筑的干预，这一方案力求打造现代零售展厅，扩大生活设施，保留具有传统地位的旧世界的魅力。

设计战略旨在强调'老'和'新'之间的对比。在两个保守的建筑之间，新的自由屋顶建筑重建于木材，具有高容量，无柱展厅内部真实展现了原来的形态和结构。现有的界墙部分也取下了，开辟了新的楼梯，连接介导不同的水平在3个发展为综合展厅。改进的视觉孔穿过单位揭示不同尺度的新量和提高在建筑形式的内在空间丰富度总体升值。

The areas carved out of the conservation buildings are redistributed to create a 4th storey addition to the infill unit and an extension to the rear of the conserved villa. A new fully glazed ‘skin’, replacing the former solid façade, wraps around the infill unit and extends to the rear of the conserved villa. The new transparency of the curtain wall unveils new views that enhance the appreciation of the conserved buildings while injecting the development with a contemporary façade that reveal its interior activities.

The three units are given distinct interior expressions in response to their existing architecture.

Restored dark timber floors, carefully exposed brickwork and 2 free-spanning attics held up by exposed steel trusses lend a warehouse expression to the conserved 3- storey shophouse. The 2-storey conserved bungalow, the most intricate and ornate of the group, is conceived as an immaculate historic villa with white-stained timber floors, windows and ceilings in an all-white pristine interior. The large volumes and intricate timber works often associated with these villas are made evident on the upper floor. Contrasting against these heritage interiors is the contemporary infill unit, in which the existing low ceiling heights inspired an industrial expression with open ceilings, exposed ductwork and services, impeccably planned and laid out as a deliberate design gesture.

At the street level, an urban plaza lends itself as a vibrant urban node and forecourt that aims to draws attention to the restored buildings. The plaza is a woven tapestry of terracotta and pebblewash strips in varying hues reminiscent of traditional materials and regional ‘sarong’ textiles, giving the development a contemporary yet distinctive character that references its Asian location. These finishes flow into the interior of the glass curtain-walled infill unit, giving a perception of a large, continuous and inviting urban space that integrates the 3 distinct buildings, and provide generous spaces for events and activities.

Integrated landscape aims to enhance the appreciation of greenery from both inside and outside the development. Pockets of greenery are extended into the plaza and around the conserved bungalow with variegated planting edges that blur the boundary between the soft and hardscape. A courtyard with vertical greenery is a feature of the conserved shophouse. Two landscaped roof terraces crown the infill units at the front and rear, stepping back as a response to the controlled envelope and introducing visible rooftop activities that further animate this unique cluster of heritage buildings.
