Architecture

The CapitaGreen building was designed to be "like a plant growing towards the sun", with a façade that incorporates living plants.^[3][4] The rooftop garden, known as the "Sky Forest", has 40 different kinds of tree and shrub.^[4] The rooftop garden features a 45m-high (150ft) windcatcher structure, designed to look like flower petals, that captures cool fresh air and channels it into the office floors.^[3][4]
