17 Caldecott Close, Singapore

Announcing Asia Pacific’s Best Property Professionals. . . This is always an exciting moment as Asia Pacific is the first region in each year’s International Property Awards’ schedule to be judged. Once again entrants from across the Asia Pacific have set an impressive benchmark for all other regions to follow. During the course of the year our extensive panel of judges will continue to seek out the winning formula of innovation, sustainability, eco-awareness and overall ‘wow factor’ that elevates a company from being simply good to exceptional. Demonstrating the criteria perfectly, Best Single Unit Property was won by Maldives ‘Ocean Flower’ by Dutch Docklands Maldives. Taking its name from a Maldivian bloom, this villa is both spacious and spectacular in a magnificent waterside setting. Best Apartment went to ‘1919 – The Black and White Residences’ by Aurum Land. Its design recalls the elegance of Singapore’s colonial era, cleverly infused with contemporary materials and techniques. Through optimising views and natural light, Best Interior Design Private Residence was won by ‘17 Caldecott Close, Singapore’ from Design Intervention. Its design is elegant yet uncomplicated, warm, welcoming and family-oriented. Many congratulations to these companies and all the other award winners listed within this book. I would also like to remind entrants that they are invited to participate in our forthcoming Property Summits in Dubai, Los Angeles and London. Companies in related businesses as well as members of the public are also welcome to attend, widening prime networking opportunities even further. Please visit our website at www.propertyawards.net for full details of dates, locations and how to register.
