The building’s sky terraces, offering a wellness-focused environment, provide fresh air, lush greenery, calming water features, and BBQ facilities, creating a peaceful work oasis.

An Iconic Statement At The Entrance Lobby: A Beacon of New Beginnings: The Sprout by Chua Boon Kee
Step into the entrance lobby and be greeted by “Sprout,” a captivating sculpture by renowned artist Chua Boon Kee. This stainless steel masterpiece takes the organic form of a seedling bursting through its seedcoat.
More than just a beautiful piece of art, “Sprout” is an abstract interpretation of a germinated seed, symbolising new life and boundless energy. Created exclusively for Arc 380, its harmonious curves subtly echo the contours of the number 380, positioning Arc 380 itself as a thriving seed flourishing on the city’s fringe.
Spacious Lobby with High Ceiling
The entrance lobby sits conveniently beside the designated drop-off area, offering a seamless arrival experience. This grand space features book-matched marble slabs and a soaring 8.6m ceiling, creating a sense of arrival.
Five high-speed passenger lifts and a dedicated service lift ensure efficient access to all office floors.
Office Units Designed for Flexibility and Choice
Arc 380’s office units offer unparalleled customisation options for modern workspaces.
The open floor plans feature largely column-free layouts, with easily removable partition walls, allowing maximum flexibility in designing an ideal workspace. Each floor plate spans up to 24 meters at its widest, providing generous space for large teams or the option to subdivide for multi-tenancy. High-performance, double-glazed curtain walls, reaching 4.9 meters in height, flood the spaces with natural light and offer breathtaking views of the cityscape and Kallang Basin.
Comfort and sound control are essential, with low-emissivity glass reducing solar heat gain while maintaining a quiet environment. A central chilled water system provides air conditioning for climate control, with additional air-cooled condensing units available for independent control outside office hours. Each unit also includes private amenities, such as a bathroom, WC, and shower, for added convenience.
Units range from 700 square feet to an entire floor plate of approximately 9,800 square feet, ensuring a scalable space that can meet any business’s needs.
Whether you require a sprawling headquarters or a compact, efficient office, Arc 380 empowers you to create the ideal workspace for your business.
