Inside Bedok Reservoir MRT station
Architects Ong & Ong shaped the interior around a “Station in the Park” idea, drawing on sculpture and colour palettes linked to the nearby greenery. The station is wheelchair accessible, with wider fare gates for wheelchair users and a tactile guidance system of raised studs on the floor that leads visually impaired passengers from the entrances to the platforms.
Look out for Somewhere Else by Ng Chee Yong, part of the Art in Transit programme: a light blue message runs down the lift shaft, droplet motifs in granite and steel trail across the platform floor towards the exit, and a curved bench resembling giant water droplets combines a stool, a chair with a backrest and a group seat.
