Crystal Garden and Louis Vuitton Duplex Store Open at Changi Airport in Singapore

The refurbished Central Piazza at Changi Airport Terminal 3’s Transit Hall features the airport’s latest feature garden made up of elegant glass dandelion sculptures – the Crystal Garden.

Specially conceptualised for the Central Piazza, the Crystal Garden is the seventh feature garden at Changi Airport and comprises 1,735 Bohemian glass components hand blown with different finishes.

The Crystal Garden is brought to life by tiered garden beds incorporating a curated selection of flowering plants and 12 spheres of artisan dandelion glass sculptures of varying sizes.

Inspired by the flora and fauna of the other gardens in Changi Airport, the glass sculptures are designed to create the illusion that they are floating on pools of water or swaying in a breeze.

The seeds of the dandelions floating across the Crystal Garden represent passengers on their onward journeys, spreading out to different corners of the world, as seeds would travel.

Prominently nestled in the heart of the Central Piazza behind the Crystal Garden is the brand new Louis Vuitton store which opened its doors today. The 530-sqm boutique is the luxury brand’s first duplex airport store in the world.

Ms Lim Peck Hoon, Executive Vice President of Commercial at Changi Airport Group said, “The Crystal Garden is designed to engage the senses of travellers while capturing the carefree spirit of travel, as it greets travellers when they first step into T3’s Transit Hall. Besides the enriched offering of luxury goods, cosmopolitan travellers can look forward to an engaging retail experience in the revolutionary two-storey Louis Vuitton boutique. Without a doubt, Louis Vuitton’s definitive French charm and distinct travel heritage plays up Changi’s image as a world-class shopping destination. We are delighted to welcome Louis Vuitton to Changi Airport.”

Behind the Louis Vuitton duplex store, the Central Piazza also offers a new open lounge with plush seating and soft lighting, a dedicated working area and individual charging points, all carefully designed to enhance the T3 experience for all travellers.
