V on Shenton is the definition of luxury living in the heart of Singapore's central business district
Set on the prestigious Shenton Way, the UIC Building was for the longest time the area’s tallest tower at 39 storeys high. Today, the building has been transformed into V on Shenton by UNStudio, the award‑winning Dutch architectural firm known for its impeccable designs and focus on sustainability.
V on Shenton has therefore been designed with sustainability in mind, and harmoniously melds art and nature. Shapes and structures inspired by the natural world interplay with a series of lush green sky gardens, creating an oasis of calm in the heart of the city. The building’s elegant honeycombed structure creates a pattern of light and shade designed to respond to Singapore’s tropical climate.

Two modules rise from its base—a 23-storey office building and a 54-storey residential tower—and at its doorstep lies the soon-to-be opened Shenton Way MRT station. The development offers studios and one‑, two- and three-bedroom units with sizes ranging from 452sqft to 1,765sqft, as well as penthouse suites from 3,315sqft to 6,814sqft, all ready for occupancy.
