Amber Skye, a 22-story, three-tower, multi-residential development nestled on the east coast of Singapore, is masterfully crafted to resemble the infinite waves of the sea. Close to the seashore, the project gets inspiration from the oceanside landscape. Its design moved forward on two core premises: the movement of the endless waves and the atmosphere of a tropical resort.
Amber Skye highlights a unique aesthetic facade where the balconies form a wave-like pattern to pick up on the seaside location. The front apartments have a full-height window wall system using pearl-tinted glass that reflects the colors and changing cloud formations in the sky, conferring an ever-changing blue-grayish hue to the block, mimicking the picturesque sea.
Minimizing uniformity and generating a mood of individuality, Amber Skye offers diverse apartment types, from the villa units on the lower floors to the apartments to the penthouses at the top of the property. To further enhance privacy and individuality, all units provide residents with private facilities—a lift lobby, a carpark, and a garden with a swimming pool. Moreover, each penthouse has a sky terrace sporting a private pool and overlooking Singapore’s downtown skyline, one of the best sights in the country.
The design strategies of the amenities support the over-arching design intent, which is to give the complex the character of a seaside resort, conjuring up a sense of the endless rhythms of the sea and the ceaseless human activity that takes place in and around it. The public amenities include a big curvaceous swimming pool, gym, playgrounds, an aqua lounge, and lush landscaping that takes its cue from the wavy boundary wall, reflecting the idea of a seaside resort.
Amber Skye, displaying a unique fluid structure and characteristics, stands out from the rest of the urban condominiums. The architecture, interiors, landscape, and artworks come together to render the experience of a tropical seaside resort rather than being just another building. With a city and sea view and a design resonating with the sea waves, the place offers owners a feel of being sheltered in an oasis within the urban chaos.
