A NEW ENVIRONMENT FOR CONTEMPORARY URBAN LIVES
Spearheading the vision for Martin Modern is Cheng Hsing Yao (Group Managing Director of GuocoLand Singapore) who is intent on creating a sanctuary of greenery, a physical and spiritual sanctum that gives respite from the busyness of city living. Cheng sees the need to champion an evolution — if not a revolution — in the design of the new condominium. Martin Modern, through its strong architectural presence, has a magic and tranquillity that coaxes you to relax and recharge. Martin Modern is defined as much by its softscape as it is by the hardscape. In fact, as one meanders through the series of gardens tiered to the terrain of the site, the journey culminates at the enchanting secret garden.

"We believe that in order to create a complementary landscape, the ideas of the architect need to be understood thoroughly. The landscape can then create its own magic that enhances the architecture, grounding it within its unique place, and harmonizing
visual character."
