CapitaSpring wins the International High-Rise Award 2024/25.
CapitaSpring, the jury concluded, is “the best high-rise building in the world at the moment”. The jurors chose it because it combines the best of two worlds, balancing the city’s interests with those of private developers in an ideal architectural solution. The International High-Rise Award 2024/25 is endowed with 50,000 euros - the prize money will be donated to the CapitaLand Hope Foundation by the client.
