Heartbeat@Bedok Ong&Ong Pte Ltd
HEARTBEAT@BEDOK IS A BUSTLING CIVIC and community space for residents in Bedok North, particularly senior citizens. It houses a community club, sports and recreation centre, public library, polyclinic and a senior care centre all in one location.
The elevated podium promotes natural ventilation, with a group of microclimates created around internal public spaces. Its three-storey atrium enhances porosity between floors, while also improving overall connectivity and visual integration of the internal spaces.
