The innovative course design brilliantly encapsulates the vibrant Taikoo Place community, with colourful and creative details that integrate its work, live and play elements. Highlights of the nine fun yet challenging holes include a miniature version of Taikoo Place complete with its arched footbridge, a culinary-inspired spread with cocktails and baguettes as obstacles, a flexible workspace with a computer and reading chairs, and colourful descending drums and cymbals representing the music events taking place within the Taikoo Place community.
