Passengers at Changi Airport Terminal 3’s Transit Hall can now visit the refurbished Central Piazza, featuring the airport’s 7th feature garden made up of glass dandelion sculptures – the Crystal Garden.
The Crystal Garden has tiered garden beds incorporating a curated selection of flowering plants and 12 spheres of artisan dandelion glass sculptures in varying sizes. Inspired by the flora and fauna of the other gardens in Changi Airport, the glass sculptures glow, creating the illusion that they are floating on pools of water or swaying in a breeze. The dandelion seeds floating across the Crystal Garden represent passengers on their onward journeys, spreading out to different corners of the world.
The brand-new Louis Vuitton store at the heart of the Central Piazza is the luxury brand’s first duplex airport store in the world. It is the third duplex at T3’s Central Transit Hall, joining two duty free outlets and is connected to them by a linkway at the mezzanine level.
