Kinetic Rain at Singapore Changi Airport’s Terminal 1 is reported to be the largest kinetic sculpture in the world. The pair of sculptures that make up the installation are intended as a reminder of the old Mylar Cords in the original check-in hall, while offering visitors a new experience that embodies the identity of the internationally acclaimed airport.

We are excited about Super Trees: the 18 vertical garden structures of flowering ferns, creepers and climbers, between 25 to 50 metres in height, at the newly opened Gardens by the Bay, Singapore.

The tallest structure will house a bistro from which 360 panoramic views can be had of the gardens and the surrounding cityscape.
