Singapore’s 140-Metre-Tall Pan Pacific Orchard Hotel Crowned The World’s Best New Skyscraper
Singapore’s Pan Pacific Orchard has been recognised as the world’s best new skyscraper by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH). The 23-storey-tall building has four open-air terraces with different themes and is an absolutely amazing architectural marvel.
Pan Pacific Orchard, nestled in the vibrant shopping hub of Singapore, has been named the best new skyscraper in the world. The 140-metre-tall hotel opened its doors in June 2023. And it has since gained global recognition for its unique design and architecture. This skyscraper is known across the world for its commitment to eco-conscious architecture.
Designed by WOHA Architects, the design of the hotel highlights a unique approach to high-density urbanism. You will see a beautiful blend of luxury with eco-friendly innovations and lush greenery here that will transport you to a whole different world! From solar panels and a rainwater harvesting system for irrigation to an on-site biodigester to process food waste, the hotel has it all.
To make this hotel greener, the hotel authorities have added towering trees, gardens, and pools to its premises. In fact, Pan Pacific Orchard has a green plot ratio of over 300%! This means that the landscaped areas exceed its footprint by threefold. Pretty impressive, isn’t it?
