Amenities & Facilities

Ikigai

IKIGAI stands quietly apart in a neighbourhood where new launches can start to blur together. With just 16 freehold units tucked away on Shrewsbury Road, this small-scale development in Novena doesn’t try to be everything to everyone — that’s precisely the point.

IKIGAI swimming pool

 

The name Ikigai is a nod to the Japanese philosophy of living with purpose, and it shows. Every aspect of this project feels intentional, from the low-rise architecture to the clever use of space, natural materials, and light. It’s rare to see such care go into a condo of this size, but here, it works.

IKIGAI living room

 

Spread across an 11,000-square-foot site, units range from one-bedroom apartments to three-bedroom penthouses, designed for those who appreciate simplicity and liveability over spectacle. The layouts are practical, with well-sized rooms, high ceilings, and oversized windows that frame the surrounding greenery. There’s a quiet rhythm to the spaces that feels… right.

The building takes inspiration from Japanese design, but not in a gimmicky way. The use of charred wood concrete on the façade is a standout—not only is it low-maintenance and sustainable, but it adds a beautiful, tactile quality to the structure. Inside and out, a sense of restraint feels calming in a city that rarely stops moving.

IKIGAI gym

 

The facilities are modest but well-considered. There’s a pool, a gym, and a shaded pavilion—nothing over the top, just the right touches to create a bit of space for pause. The landscaping is thoughtful, too, planted to create a quiet buffer between home and the world outside.

And then there’s the location. Walkable to Novena MRT, close to Velocity, United Square, and a short drive to Orchard, it’s central without being in the thick of it. You’re also surrounded by some of the best healthcare and schools in the city — an understated but important draw for many families.

IKIGAI bedroom suite

In short, IKIGAI is not trying to impress with flash. It’s built for people who value privacy, design, and timeless quality. If that sounds like you, this one’s worth a closer look.
