Into this pours rain water that falls 40m down, first through Jewel’s five-level indoor garden, and then two basements, at a rate of approximately 10,000 gallons per minute during high flow. An art installation by Andy Cao and Xavier Perrot hangs in Jewel and features 16 "clouds" that reflect weather patterns with dynamic lighting sequences. But the HSBC Rain Vortex is not the only highlight inside Jewel. Additionally, there is a 16mm air gap between the glass panels (this is sandwiched by an outer layer and a double-laminated inner layer) to insulate against noise from the aircraft in the surrounding terminals. Mr Moshe Safdie, Principal, Safdie Architects, said, “Jewel Changi Airport juxtaposes the centre of being in nature and enjoying a vibrant marketplace, dramatically extending the concept of airport to serve as an urban centre, engaging travellers, visitors, and residents; echoing Singapore’s reputation as ‘The City in the Garden’. AD asked Safdie to explain, in his own words, how he conceived Jewel as something far beyond a standard airport hub, as a civic space for those even without an airplane ticket. The feature recirculates rain water to cool the indoor environment and for reuse—in addition to providing the visual drama of seven stories of water dropping in a cylindrical shape from the sky. The Architecture And Design Of Jewel Changi Airport. Goal achieved. “We felt that the attraction should be timeless, of long duration and attract people of every age. “Singapore has the reputation of a ‘Garden City’ – Gardens by the Bay, the Botanical Gardens – there are gardens everywhere. Not to mention the entire airport is activated with public art. “That was a geometric nightmare. The waterfall feature, which stands 40 metres (131 ft) high, is the central… Chris Tan is from RSP Architects Planners & Engineers, the Executive Architect. “They wanted to create some kind of a centre that brings together and unifies Terminals 1, 2 and 3,” reveals Safdie.

Moshe Safdie: The request for proposals outlined the basic functional components—airport operations, restaurants and cafés, retail offerings, and an undefined "attraction." It's all part of what makes the airport the "world's best," according to the 2019 Skytrax World Airport Awards. On its fifth level, a 150,695-square-foot Canopy Park includes a suspended bridge, mazes, slides, an animal topiary, and mist gardens. In addition, nowhere in the world has a building been constructed that integrates the public realm with an airport facility so closely," said Safdie Architects. These include net structures suspended within the trees, a suspended catenary glass-bottom bridge walk, a planted hedge maze and mirror maze, and feature installations completed in collaboration with internationally acclaimed artists. This story first appeared in Issue 110: June/July 2019 of d+a. On the north side of the park is an event plaza space big enough to serve 1,000 people.

The building’s efficient displacement ventilation system regulates the thermal comfort for occupants as well as the vast array of interior planting within.

"The building extends Changi Airport’s principal function as a transit hub, to a public gathering space for Singaporeans and international travelers, establishing a new model for airports as discrete destinations for shopping, entertainment, and social activity," added the firm. In addition to the typical shopping and dining amenities, its terminals are packed with attractions. She reveals that to anticipate how it would turn out, the project team required the contractors to construct actual full-scale mock-ups off-site of key design elements. They are just all exploring and curious and that is very nice.”. In Terminal 3, one thousand butterflies live in a tropical habitat—the world's first butterfly garden in an airport—and visitors can take a ride down the world's tallest slide in an airport.

Surrounded by a plenty of lush vegetation, the structure will also help to cool off the interior space and create airflow in the landscape environment, collecting significant rainwater to be re-used in the building.

For a while, we tried to get the Hanging Rock Garden in the middle of the [torus] but it’s too heavy. On the 5th level, there is the Canopy Park, which includes 14,000 square meters of attractions integrated within the garden spaces.

Its deployment creates the opportunity for a new kind of spatial experience, one that specifically echoes and celebrates Singapore’s reputation as the Garden City—but, at its heart, is a humanistic response that is not bound to a particular locale.

Ad Choices, Jewel Changi Airport includes the world's largest waterfall, a five-story garden, and 280 retail stores and eateries—adding much to the "world's best" airport, Photo: Courtesy of Jewel Changi Airport Devt. Local culture, heritage, and climate inform the design. Safdie cites ensuring the building be climatically comfortable for plants and people, while staying within the standards of sustainability and green-marking, as the biggest challenge. The total amount of space devoted to landscaping in Jewel measures some 21,100m2. This same technique is repeated on Level 1 around the HSBC Rain Vortex, where the sun hits the ground directly and radiant heat gain is minimised. After careful consideration, the project team decided on using a displacement cooling system similar to that at Gardens by the Bay.

Woven into it are two cobblestoned walking trails, a series of vertical canyons that connect to the surrounding 90,000m2 retail mall, and quiet seating areas. Level 5 of Jewel is the Canopy Park housing restaurants, attractions and activities that evoke fun and play. Terminal 1 boasts a cactus garden, a water lily garden, and a discovery garden, while Terminal 2 plays host to an LED-enhanced "enchanted garden," a 700-flower orchid garden, and a cheery sunflower-packed rooftop. AD: How is Jewel designed to engage the community? Jewel transcends this notion even further by creating an interactive civic plaza, for travelers and Singaporeans alike. Since the project opened to the public on 17 April 2019, it has been swamped with people coming from all over the island to experience the mixed-use development.
