Nestled in a lush parcel of land next to the Singapore Botanic Gardens, at the junction of Holland Road and Taman Nakhoda, Botanika is an exclusive boutique development housing 34 exclusive residences, in three configurations. Designed by the multi-award-winning SCDA Architects, it is undeniably the most desirable residential address in Singapore.
Botanika was created by SCDA Architects Pte Ltd, a multi-disciplinary architectural practice recently honored with the Gold Medal Award for the ARCASIA awards for Architecture 2005-2006 and the Royal Institute of British Architects World Wide Award in 2005 among other globally important recognition.
The distinctive design of Botanika optimizes the unique characteristics of the site. In keeping with the natural beauty of the surroundings, building materials have been carefully selected for their rustic texture and resort feel. Here, landscape merges seamlessly with waterscape. Lap pool,
planters and walkways are artfully positioned to sit flush with the surface of the man-made lake.
The extensive use of timber throughout links indoors to outdoors. Generous width windows optimize the magnificent views of the Botanic Gardens and admit glorious natural light into the living and dining areas. The feeling of spaciousness and fluidity is further enhanced by a long balcony in select main wing residences. Luxurious fittings represent the cream of leading world brands in home ware labels.
