Oasia Hotel Downtown is a 27-story mixed-use hotel and office skyscraper in the Downtown Core district of Singapore. Its exterior includes 21 species of climbing plants on its facade.[3] The building's exterior, constructed atop vertical grid panels, will appear more "furry" over time, with only specks of its orange, pink and maroon aluminium mesh exterior remaining visible.[4] About 40 percent of the building's volume consists of communal green space elevated vertically into the skyscraper.[5]
The building was designed by the architectural firm WOHA and developed by the Far East Organization.[3] It opened in April 2016.[6] It received the 2018 award for "Best Tall Building in the World" from the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat.[5]
