With floor-to-ceiling windows capturing the city’s iconic skyline, the unique ambiance of C.O.T.U. provides an unforgettable backdrop for festive gatherings and countdown celebrations.
Architectural Excellence: Threaded Creatives Transforms C.O.T.U.’s Vision into Reality
The design of C.O.T.U.’s five distinct concepts and members’ club was shaped through a close collaboration with Threaded Creatives, an award-winning architectural and design firm renowned for their innovative approach to reimagining spaces. Tasked with transforming the existing 18,000 square feet across two levels, the team embarked on an extensive renovation to bring C.O.T.U.’s ambitious vision to life.
Threaded Creatives redefined the space by creating a cohesive flow that connects each concept while allowing them to stand independently, catering to the diverse needs of guests. The design maximises the building’s unique features, such as its full-height windows and prime vantage point above Marina Bay, while addressing operational flow and guest experience.
Little Birdie, the cocktail bar at the heart of C.O.T.U., was designed as a welcoming focal point, with intimate seating and a theatrical atmosphere to draw guests in. The Whisper Room combines opulence and intimacy with a striking double-height back bar and a design that frames breathtaking views of surrounding Marina Bay. In Enso Steakhouse, the ripple mirror ceiling and suspended sculptures create a sense of drama, while the natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows highlights the panoramic skyline.
For the Dashi Sky Pool, the design team curated an open-air sanctuary, incorporating cabanas to create a skyhigh haven where guests can enjoy sweeping views of Singapore’s cityscape. Finally, at Dashi Go-Go Ultra Lounge, the Neo-Tokyo aesthetic is brought to life with dynamic retro lighting and strategically placed mirrors that expand the space and energise the atmosphere.
Threaded Creatives’ expertise in design and architecture is evident throughout the renovation, setting a new standard for integrated lifestyle destinations. The result is a space that not only showcases design excellence but also redefines the possibilities of entertainment and dining in Singapore.
