BEDOK – TOWN SCALE

Town Theme and Concept

Bedok is a distinctive town with strong urban character, abundant green and blue spaces and rich history and heritage. Different key elements define Bedok’s character such as the reservoir/ quarry, the vibrant kampung spirit, and its close proximity to East Coast. The town theme highlights the prominence of Bedok’s location as the key entry into the East region from the rest of Singapore, as well as from East Coast Park.

Town Theme: Vibrant Heartland @ the East Coast

Concept and design considerations to be inspired by Bedok’s close relationship with the East Coast.

Sub-Themes by Area

Bedok is divided into 4 different areas, and their subthemes are identified based on existing context, such as social and physical features that are prevalent within the different areas.

Waterside Parkland – Bedok (North)

Originally a quarry, Bedok Reservoir brings about a quieter and tranquil “lakeside” atmosphere. This neighbourhood is also served by a number of major parks spaces in Bedok and park connectors leading from Bedok Reservoir into Bedok Town.

Pasar Grounds – Bedok (Central)

This area had many vegetable roadside hawker stalls in the past that eventually became a market. It is now home to 4 NCs and the Town Centre, continuing its role as the serving as the key destination and marketplace in the heart of Bedok.

Tropical Gardens – Bedok (South)

The rich and fertile soil in the area led to many coconut plantations being established here. As it originally used to front the sea, many coastal plants like palms and sea almonds still remain within the landscape, with additional touch of the community gardens in the area with tropical fruit plants adding to the ‘garden’ theme.

Urban Waterfront – Bedok (Bayshore)

The Bayshore area was primarily sand and mudflats and subsequently reclaimed in 1966. Located right along the edge of East Coast Park, this is a new area within Bedok that would focus on the experience of living in an urban, vibrant environment that is close to the waters. With this, we could leverage on these unique assets of Bayshore to create an imageable estate with a distinct identity (focused on response to the street, response to greenery and its coastal location).

BEDOK – NEIGHBOURHOOD SCALE

The developments in Bayshore should leverage the unique assets of Bayshore to create an imageable estate with a distinct identity, responding to the Bayshore street, greenery and its coastal location.

Sub-theme and Concept

Planning and Design Considerations

• Located right at the edge of East Coast Park, unique waterfront homes can be designed to maximise the expansive views of the water

• New developments are envisaged to be nestled in greenery, while new parks and convenient access to East Coast Park offer residents a healthy lifestyle and living environment close to nature

• Centred along a car-free Transit Priority Corridor, walking and cycling will be prioritised. Bayshore will be a walkable neighbourhood where each parcel is within a 5- minute walking distance to the nearest MRT.

Additionally, the sidewalks are envisaged as vibrant community spaces for activities to spill out and chance encounters between neighbours.

Landscape Approach

Bayshore is a new estate near the sea that aims to create a relaxing environment by introducing a tropical courtyard garden with a resort atmosphere.

This garden includes a small lawn with a canopy tree, surrounded by plants with large leaves in various shades of green, and long blooming flowering trees and shrubs for visual interest.

Planting Concept: Tropical resort courtyard garden

Planting Strategy: Use of tall cluster palms along building edges to serve as backdrops of the garden scene. A lawn to be arranged as front view of the garden. Low-branching trees and shrubs with large leaves are added in layers allowing intimate contact with nature. Coastal plant species to strengthen its identity near the sea.
