KPF新作 | 新加坡罗敏申大厦
罗敏申大厦的设计结合当地独特的城市文化语境，创建一个标志性的精品商业和办公建筑。该大厦不仅改善了公共环境，而且在城市肌理中脱颖而出。

2014年通过的新加坡景观置换政策要求在新建筑中建设公共可利用绿地，并且绿地面积须与因开发而损失的绿化面积相等。
KPF罗敏申大厦的设计方案基于该政策，同时兼顾市场大街和罗敏申路交汇形成的狭窄V型场地。大厦雕塑般的形态由两个主要体块组成：一个商业裙楼和悬于上方的办公塔楼，二者由裙楼屋顶花园隔开。
塔楼体量的立面设计将二十个办公楼层的滨海视野最大化，同时激活裙楼屋顶景观和封闭的屋顶花园。设计中核心筒的偏移再次扩大裙楼视野，同时避免立柱影响公共区域。
从任意角度看，大厦多面体的外形以不同的方式反射日光和天空，外形与高度如同宝石般，立于城市天际线。
罗敏申大厦商业裙楼采用类似的晶体形态设计语言(crystalline vocabulary)。设计中使用小尺度和带图案的材料，与新加坡中部历史建筑老巴刹食品市场有棱角的赤陶屋顶建立了一种语境联系。
裙楼体量略高于街面，增强连接地面入口到中庭花园之间空间的宽敞感与连续性。该中庭成为办公大堂、商业和餐饮空间交汇的中心，面朝罗敏申路的落地窗则促进室内与街景之间的对话。
KPF设计总监 Bruce Fisher指出：“本项目的核心在于挑战不规则场地形态与环境规范要求给甲级办公空间设计规划带来的双重限制。不过，这些条件实则最终推动了设计的成功，加之充分利用罗敏申路宽阔的视觉廊道。这座充满活力的大厦将自己从坚固的立面中解放出来，在独特有利位置加入绿地，最终在创建一个精品综合体的同时，塑造卓越公共空间。”
KPF设计负责人Robert Whitlock说道：“罗敏申大厦是 KPF完成了滨海湾金融中心（MBFC）项目之后开展的项目。滨海湾金融中心首次将多功能建筑模式引入新加坡。尽管那个项目规模更庞大，规划中还包含一个公园，但此次新项目这座独特的大楼同样体现了语境、文化与可持续性设计元素与建筑的融合。我们有效的设计方案与项目成功执行是基于KPF对标志性建筑设计的专业性，无论场地是在世界级城市，抑或在受限制的或紧凑密集的市区。”
KPF新加坡办事处于2019年7月1日入驻罗敏申大厦。该办事处成立于2018年，为KPF与赫斯维克建筑事务所合作设计的樟宜机场5号航站楼项目提供支持。该大厦充实了KPF新加坡标志性作品集，其中包括上述滨海湾金融中心和公寓、莱佛士码头一号、莱佛士连道、以及新加坡证券交易所所在地-SGX大厦。
KPF-Designed Robinson Tower Opens in Singapore
The tower’s design synthesizes the unique conditions that define the city-state’s physical and cultural context, creating a signature boutique retail and office structure that improves the public realm and distinguishes itself within the urban fabric.
Passed in 2014, Singapore’s Landscape Replacement Policy requires that any greenery lost due to development must be replaced with publicly accessible greenery in equal area within the new building. This obligation, coupled with the constrained, V-shaped site defined by Market Street and Robinson Road, influenced KPF’s design solution for Robinson Tower. Its sculptural form comprises two primary volumes – an office tower elevated above a retail podium – separated by the podium’s manicured roof space. The elevation of the tower’s massing maximizes marina views for the twenty boutique office floors and activates the podium roof-scape and enclosed rooftop garden. Its offset core doubly maximizes views from the podium and avoids the issue of columns disrupting the public area. At each approach, the tower’s faceted volume dematerializes and reflects the sun and sky differently, gem-like in its shape and stature on the city’s skyline.
Robinson Tower’s retail podium features a similar, crystalline vocabulary. Its reduced scale and patterned materiality form a contextual relationship with the angular, terracotta roof of Lau Pa Sat, a historic building and food market in central Singapore. The podium’s massing hovers slightly above street level, enhancing its spaciousness and continuity from the ground entrance into the atrium garden. This atrium forms the nucleus where the office lobby, retail and food & beverage spaces meet, while floor-to-ceiling windows facing Robinson Road encourage dialogue between the interiors and the streetscape.
Bruce Fisher, KPF Design Director, reflects on Robinson Tower’s design brief: “At its core, this project presented the overlapping challenges of planning Class-A office space on an irregular site with environmental checks. However, these conditions ultimately drove the design’s success, all the while capitalizing on the expanse of Robinson Road’s visual corridor. The dynamic tower frees itself from the canyon of stoic facades, integrating green space at unique vantage points and ultimately cultivating the public realm alongside a boutique, mixed-use program.”
Robert Whitlock, KPF Design Principal, relates the project to KPF’s overarching design philosophy: “Robinson Tower follows in the footsteps of KPF’s work at Marina Bay Financial Centre, which first introduced the mixed-use model to Singapore. Even though that project was massive in scale, with a park integrated in its plan, this distinctive tower similarly embodies the integration of context, culture, and sustainability with architecture. Our impactful scheme, and its successful execution, taps into KPF’s expertise designing iconic buildings for global cities, as well as for buildings on constrained or otherwise tight sites in dense, urban areas.”
Robinson Tower’s demonstration of tactful urbanism parallels KPF projects like 52 Lime Street in London and 55 Hudson Yards in New York; respectively, these buildings integrate historic neighborhood preservation and public transit infrastructure into their forms. Their designs are also sculptural and iconic in nature, advancing the studio’s prowess for high quality design alongside complex requirements.
As of July 1st, 2019, Robinson Tower houses KPF’s Singapore office, which was founded in 2018 to support the firm’s commission of Changi Airport Terminal 5, designed in partnership with Heatherwick Studio. The tower joins KPF’s portfolio of high-profile Singapore work, including the aforementioned Marina Bay Financial Centre and Suites, One Raffles Quay and One Raffles Link, and SGX, the home of the Singapore Stock Exchange.
