DBS Newton Green’s upgrade to a net-zero energy building involved integrating M&E technologies with architectural interventions. A bamboo landscaped façade aligns with the bank’s ethos and blends with surrounding greenery. The extended roof maximizes solar panel installation, while planter boxes and maintenance catwalks fill leftover spaces. The façade, promoting natural ventilation and shading, supports threatened native species. Relocated, naturally ventilated pantry and lounge areas enhance sustainability.
