The twin towers, designed by ADDP Architects, are characterized by structural scheme expressed through the repetition of vertical wooden partitions, and shading elements.
The sky terraces inserted in the design of the facade of the two skyscrapers serve to break down the staircase of the towers and create a visual connection with nature. These terraces are accessible to residents and offer multi-storey green spaces.

“The Avenue South Residences symbolize ADDP Architects’ ability to blend modern futuristic and ecological building with Singapore's heritage. This live-work-play concept aims to provide a new and innovative residential product while preserving the neighborhood's verdant nature and green spaces.”
On another hand, ADDP Architects integrated the existing preserved buildings into the Green Connectors concept, encouraging the use of sustainable modes of transportation.
Regarding the energy efficiency of the development, the North-South orientation of the high-rises optimizes solar exposure and airflow. Forming a backdrop of the four-story conserved blocks, the towers are placed in a way to minimize its green footprint.
Unsurprisingly, pre-finished modular buildings are increasingly common in cities that face housing crunches—Singapore’s government sold land to the developer of Avenue South Residences on the condition that PPVC technology was used.
