OASIA Hotel Downtown in Singapore's Tanjong Pagar has been named this year's Best Tall Building Worldwide by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH), a global authority on tall buildings and future cities that confers the award annually.
The 27-storey skyscraper, by developer Far East Organization and designed by award-winning architecture firm Woha, features a plant-covered facade of red and green and outdoor communal spaces along its height, which CTBUH felt "connects to the green of the cityscape" and "provides respite and relief to its occupants, neighbours, and city".
