Sky Habitat Residential Development

Sky Habitat is a residential building in Singapore designed by Moshe Safdie. Sky Habitat is technically two different towers that are connected by three sky bridges. On the sky bridges, one can find a pool, gardens, and communal sitting areas. Each apartment has access to an outside terrace. The unique shape of the towers and the addition of sky bridges allows for constant sunlight and a nice breeze to pass through. Moshe Safdie shows the importance of outdoor living and community in this residential building.

I think this residential building was designed with community in mind which is very unique. Most residential buildings I’ve experienced are very bland and were built to where there is enormous separation between those who live there. The sky bridges allow for easier access from one building to the other. This can make for a more wholistic living experience as you aren’t strictly separated from one another as much.
