9 October 2023UOL retains Top Developer title
UOL has once again clinched the prestigious Top Developer accolade at the EdgeProp Singapore Excellence Awards 2023, marking its fourth win of this title since the Group’s first in 2019.
At the awards ceremony held on 6 October 2023 at Pan Pacific Orchard, UOL won a total of 12 awards, of which seven were presented for AMO Residence. MEYER HOUSE, The Tre Ver and its two hotels were among the award-winning properties.
UOL Group Chief Executive Liam Wee Sin shared how the Group as a developer is committed to design and development excellence. He said: “The purpose of a building is for the people using it, and therefore functionality and practicality are key. We start our routine as a functionalist, then we seek to see design and aesthetic qualities in the architecture, interior, and landscape design.”
He added: “Finally, we endeavour to value-add to the public spaces, built environment, and the City. Overall, our buildings must be sustainable and address climate change.”
Mr Liam highlighted that the starting point for design excellence is the acquisition of a land parcel, where unique site attributes and perhaps even challenges can inspire creativity and design. He said: “Our approach includes responding to the surrounding greenery and parks in the designs and creating new typologies for each project whenever possible.”
Mr Liam shared that the Group has been riding on the Singapore Green Transformation journey, which has evolved from “Garden City” to “City in a Garden” and now to “City in Nature”.
He said: “Our typology for our green hotels has evolved from ‘Hotel in a Garden’ for PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering to ‘Garden in a Hotel’ for PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay, and then to ‘Gardens in the Sky’ for our newly opened Pan Pacific Orchard.”
Pan Pacific Orchard and PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay were both recognised and celebrated at the awards ceremony.
