“The list of winners this year does reflect the growing popularity of integrated developments. Beyond just the convenience these projects provide, the judges also paid special attention to how well connected the different components are when they are put together,” says Bernard Tong, CEO of EdgeProp Singapore.

“Irwell Hill Residences, our Top Development award winner, reflects this vision. Conceptualised during the circuit breaker period last year, its design was inspired by a renewed focus on wellness and health. This project places much emphasis on nature, flexible spaces and smart home features to cater to evolving lifestyles and changing needs,” says Chia Ngiang Hong, Group GM of City Developments Limited.

“The real estate market in Singapore is definitely one of the most competitive. We have so many excellent real estate companies and world class projects are launched almost every month. In order to excel and to complete, a company like ours has to, through the years, continue to learn, to improve, to find our strength, our niche and to really dedicate ourselves to designing and delivering quality projects. Year after year. This award is a validation of the company’s philosophy and the team’s hard work,” says Koon Wai Leong, GM of Hoi Hup Realty.
