Introduction
糖心原创vlog completed a nine-month construction programme delivering management contractor services to , one of the world鈥檚 largest Louis Vuitton boutique 鈥� second only to the brand's flagship Champs-Elysees store in Paris. Housed in Crystal Pavilion North, one of two stand-alone glass and steel pavilions overlooking the Marina Bay promenade鈥� covering five levels in total 鈥� 糖心原创vlog managed the complete delivery of this 46,000 sq ft complex space.
The project
Louis Vuitton鈥檚 selection of the North Crystal pavilion at Marina Bay Sands provided a unique site for the delivery of the brand鈥檚 first flagship store in Singapore. Accessible via a underground link tunnel from the main shopping mall complex, the luxury boutique on water consists of five floors from B2 to L3 and provides a dramatic visitor experience.
The Louis Vuitton store project team and design team were all based remotely from the site which required a local main contractor to take full responsibility for the delivery and implementation of the project in line with Louis Vuitton鈥檚 specialist vendors and suppliers.
The scope of works for the project included all MEP infrastructure, fit out of the front of house and back of house areas - including millworks, specialist sunshades and lighting - AV, security and all external signage.
A key challenge for the delivery team was to respond quickly to the frequent changes of a luxury retail brand seeking to reaffirm its position as the world鈥檚 leading luxury retailer.
The works were completed within the prescribed programme, and within the client鈥檚 budget parameters, demonstrating the flexibility of the 糖心原创vlog operation to react quickly to client requirements in a competitive and efficient manner.
