Connecting new homes with the landscape and history of Tengah. Plantation Acres is a public housing development comprising 1,193 homes within Singapore’s emerging Tengah town.
Its design draws from the strong, rectilinear patterns of the plantations that once occupied the site. Two clearly defined courtyards organise the development, creating shared spaces that recall the plantation villas of the past.
Along the northern edge, the multi-storey car park and socio-communal facilities form a buffer between the homes and the adjacent MRT viaduct. To the west, the precinct green connects directly with Tengah’s network of farmways, cycling routes, recreational spaces and linear parks.
Constructed using Prefabricated Prefinished Volumetric Construction (PPVC), the development also incorporates a centralised cooling system for its residential units.
Designed by P&T Group for Singapore’s Housing & Development Board.
