LANDSCAPE DESIGN OF SENTOSA SENSORYSCAPE

Sentosa Sensoryscape redefines conventional park design by seamlessly integrating nature, architecture and technology to offer a unique, multi-sensory experience along Sentosa Island's main artery. This two-tiered walkway connects attractions in the north to the beaches in the south, bridging the island's ridgeline to the reef. As the inaugural project of Singapore's Greater Sentosa Master Plan, Sensoryscape aims to enhance capacity and provide guests with an exceptional and inspiring exploration of the island, marking a significant milestone in Sentosa's evolution as a premier global leisure and tourism destination.

Sensoryscape is a canvas where uniquely designed spaces, set amidst lush landscape, and ‘phygital’ experiences awaken our 6th sense of imagination. Guests are led through a series of sensory gardens, offering contemplative moments.

A total of 38,270 numbers of trees and shrubs, of which more than 100 different native and fauna-attracting plant species were introduced to ensure for biodiversity continuity, whilst integrating within each micro-climate context and designed sensorial requirements of the varied thematic zones. As a constantly evolving multi-functional ecosystem that is able to bridge between the present and future, Sensoryscape will grow and thrive with matured planting through time, forming an important bridge between ecological stepping stones within the island and the wider site context of Singapore.

Integration of the proposed green spines along Sensoryscape enabled for seamless connectivity between the development, landscaped terrains and its wider context. New trees integrated with matured trees are allowed to flow across the walkway, creating the ecological continuity that connects beyond the development, facilitating movements of avian fauna within Sentosa Island and beyond. Enhanced ecological and social benefits for increased connectivity between communities of fauna and flora with visitors, from a diversity of cultures and across all age groups.

Since its opening in mid-March 2024, Sensoryscape has attracted over a quarter million guests monthly, becoming a popular attraction for both locals and tourists. It has also garnered almost 2 billion media outreach from Singapore and in the region. Sensoryscape embodies SDC’s commitment to creating extraordinary landmarks inspired by the beauty of nature, inspiring guests through memorable discoveries.
