The building has become such a recognisable icon of Singapore and its airport that it’s hard to believe that Jewel has only been around for a year.An architectural wonderCentered on the world\u2019s tallest indoor waterfall, the four minute short film draws viewers into the heart of the airport to the beat of calming, therapeutic music. Having recently retained its title as the \u2018World\u2019s Best Airport\u2019 for the eighth year in the row, Jewel more than lives up to its shining reputation.Wide-angle views and the lush greenery of the entire interior makes you feel like you\u2019re actually there \u2013 you can almost hear the rushing sounds of the waterfall and feel the spray of the water. Whether you\u2019re a tourist going through, a visitor dropping by for a meal, or a local resident who just wants to check out the indoor garden, the airport has become a place where people can build connections to each other, nature, and aviation.Jewel also doubles as a physical connection between the different terminals of Changi Airport, with a direct connection to Terminal 1, and pedestrian walkways to Terminal 2 and 3. Gateway gardens placed at the four different directions of north, south, east, and west as a visual motif to link Jewel and the other buildings.designboomExperience the vibrant and uplifting nature from anywhereGoing to the airport can be very taxing emotionally and physically. But Jewel manages to seamlessly weave the idea of nature and a marketplace, with a forest valley that spans four storeys and filled with thousands of plants and trees. Recreational facilities such as climbable sky nets, a hedge maze, and a series of slides provides entertainment for families and couples.They don\u2019t call Singapore the city in the garden for nothing!Aesthetics appreciationHan, who\u2019s also an architectural designer and instructor at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, explains how she hopes to reach those who watch her film, \u201cI recognize the privilege to be able to study and be exposed to the profession of architecture. I offer my work as a shared lens, to expose and expand people\u2019s critical comprehension to the role of architecture in shaping the global environment.\u201dAnd even if you can\u2019t travel to Singapore just yet, the video feature will trigger the #wanderlust to make you look forward to the reopening of the skies.Watch the Garden of Wonder now:Garden of Wonder from Safdie Architects on Vimeo. Join the conversations on THG’s\u00a0Facebook\u00a0and\u00a0Instagram, and get the latest updates via\u00a0Telegram."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Destinations","item":"https:\/\/thehomeground.asia\/destinations\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Singapore","item":"https:\/\/thehomeground.asia\/destinations\/\/singapore\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Jewel Changi Airport Releases Short Film To Mark Its First Year Anniversary","item":"https:\/\/thehomeground.asia\/destinations\/singapore\/jewel-changi-airport-releases-short-film-to-mark-its-first-year-anniversary\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
