TMW Maxwell ushers in a revolution in multi-hyphenate spaces for modern urbanites

TMW Maxwell is an era-defining building that has arrived at a pivotal juncture in the Singapore architectural scene – set to shape urban design in the years to come. Located in a strategic corner of Maxwell Road, it is a 20-storey mixed-use development by three leading companies working in collaboration with avant-garde architectural firm Formwerkz Architects and landscape designer Compound Collaborative.

TMW Maxwell appeals to the young and daring at heart, and it sits in between the bustling cityscape of the CBD and the vibrant, characteristic shophouse neighbourhoods of Club Street, Keong Saik Road, Duxton Road and Chinatown. Residents here benefit from top transport connectivity and access to green spaces within the central region.

It stands nearby landmark mixed-use projects such as Guoco Tower, Capital Tower, and International Plaza, and will be part of the revitalised Tanjong Pagar area. An influx of city-dwellers is expected with the completion of residential projects such as One Bernam, Newport Residences, and Skywaters Residences.

The flipside of TMW Maxwell overlooks the historic shophouses of Keong Saik Road, Neil Road, Duxton Road, and Tanjong Pagar Road – each of them offering Singapore’s unique urban lifestyle with its variety of shops, cafés, restaurants, bars, and clubs. Plus, with access to around six MRT stations and four lines on the network, residents are well-connected across the city – including Maxwell Station on the Thomson-East Coast Line, Tanjong Pagar Station on the East-West Line, Telok Ayer station on the Downtown Line, and the Chinatown Interchange on the North-East Line and Downtown Line.

Great World City Condo is an outstanding condominium offering all the amenities and facilities necessary for an enjoyable living experience. It provides a secure and comfortable home for singles, couples, and families. Residents have access to great amenities such as a fitness center, infinity pool, spa, clubhouse, BBQ pits, and a children’s playground, all designed to provide optimum comfort and convenience.

The project blends the idea of work, live and play, and is designed with the intention of creating a strong sense of place and community. The street level features a new sunken forecourt called The Commons that connects pedestrians to the basement retail floor. The three-storey podium is home to an array of shops and restaurants, while a 24/7 accessway with elevated sheltered paths extends across Maxwell Road, Tras Street, and Peck Seah Street.

The tallest architectural feature is the 16-storey tall tower of terraces that face Maxwell Road – a concept that rethinks the concept of communal sky terraces. Every landing is connected to most of the residential floors and features pocket gardens, outdoor living rooms, and communal zones for residents to enjoy.

TMW Maxwell offers 324 units, of which 201 are Flip/Switch units – one- and two-bedroom units that range from 474–872 sq ft. This revolutionary layout concept allows for the maximum versatility and flexibility, with the spaces transforming from living to working and accommodating one person to a party of many. There are 5 one-bedroom lofts and 34 two-bedroom dual key units too.

The residences come fully equipped with top-of-the-line appliances from SMEG and premium sanitary wares and fittings by Gessi and Roca. There are unique space-saving and flip/ switch provisions, such as the queen-size Murphy bed with integrated sofa, a moveable walk-in wardrobe, and a flip-down table on the balcony to accommodate guests or as a flexible workspace.

TMW Maxwell is a notable urban project that is sure to be an integral part of Singapore’s cityscape for the years to come. Its modern perspective and hybrid lifestyle offer a new way of living for tomorrow’s urbanites, and a bold statement for the Singapore architectural scene.
