The rain vortex sets the stage for a mesmerising Light & Sound show, running from 8:30pm to 12:30am daily at hourly intervals. During the show, a carefully controlled flow of water creates a cascading bead curtain that interplays with the projected light imagery. This is enhanced by music and mist effects to create an ethereal guest experience.

Starbucks opened its Singapore flagship store, its largest store in Singapore that beautifully captures local craftmanship and offers a mix of quality coffee experiences and localized offerings. The theme of craftsmanship runs throughout the space alongside design features which showcase Starbucks tribute to the coffee journey; the duplex’s lush indoor landscaping, polished interiors and artisanal woodwork.
An Art Room on the second level of the store, showcases a special collection of the original pieces of art typically found within Starbucks stores across Asia. Artworks tower over Starbucks patrons in the main dining areas with an art piece featuring the word “Singapore” made up of peranakan-inspired tiles and Starbucks Reserve™ coffee cards.
There is a sprawling coffee bar shaped like a coffee bean, designed with cross-sectional honeycomb patterns carved on the wooden material for added texture and a beautifully layered wooden storefront inspired by the textures of coffee farm landscapes.
