ArtScience Museum, Art and science museum at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore
Description
ArtScience Museum is a museum in Downtown Core, Singapore, recognizable by its white lotus-shaped structure with ten extending fingers that collect rainwater. Inside, the exhibition spaces spread across multiple levels around a central atrium that lets in daylight.
History
The building opened in February 2011 as part of the Marina Bay Sands complex and was intended to expand Singapore's cultural offerings. Since opening, the themes have rotated regularly to present different perspectives on science and design.
Culture
The name brings together two worlds that meet here in rotating exhibitions and enrich each other. Visitors often experience installations that both provoke thought and engage the senses, such as through interactive objects or digital projections.
Practical
The museum opens from 10 AM to 7 PM Sunday through Thursday, and stays open until 9 PM on Fridays and Saturdays. The entrance sits right next to the Marina Bay Sands Hotel and can be reached by stairs or elevators.
Did you know?
The roof channels rainwater through the building into a pond at ground level, creating a waterfall that falls through the central atrium. This design combines sustainability with a visual element that visitors immediately notice.
