South Beach is designed by Norman Foster and Partners. It’s a hotel cum public realm with recreation spaces the metro station etc.Their is a large "environmental filter" canopy that covers the open spaces, linking conservation buildings with the two high-rise towers and providing shelter from the elements and drawing air currents to cool the area beneath it. The first storey will be laid out with a series of internal streets, with the aim of enhancing street level vibrancy and allowing pedestrians to move about easily. It also features sunken courtyards, tiered gardens lined with shops, and food and beverage outlets.Public transport is integrated via a direct ‘green’ link to Esplanade MRT station.
