“在迪拜盖绿洲”，世博会新加坡馆设计方案释出
世界博览会每5年举办一次，各国也纷纷释出设计方案。我国在新加坡城市重建局，以及土地利用规划和保护机构领导下，宣布新加坡馆的设计方案。
根据《CNN》报道此次由新加坡建筑公司WOHA设计，以及Radius experience International建设，在阿拉伯沙漠中创建绿洲，试图打造一个”花园中的城市“，向世界展示新加坡的创新精神，以及作为一个有活力、宜居的自然城市的抱负。
世界顶级设计公司WOHA联合创始人黄文森表示，“我们试图向世界证明在任何一个地方，甚至是在沙漠中，都有可能建立一个自给自足的绿洲。”

参观者将会在地底层进入绿树成荫的世界，将游客带近圆锥体并穿过它们，随后会在经过露天商场平台，除了享受阳光雨棚的遮荫与5-10摄氏度细雾扇的冷却，还可以在此了解关于新加坡的信息，试图打造在炎热的沙漠下，仍然可以保持旅客们的舒适环境。
黄文森指出，新加坡是世界上数一数二的环保城市，因此借由各项技术与绿化的结合，向世界展示新加坡绿化技术与创新。
被问及如何维持室内温度，WOHA表示，该展馆完全依靠太阳能和太阳能海水淡化系统运作，在为期6个月的世博会期间，其能源消耗净值为零。
黄文森补充，他们并希望能够简化所有的工程，透过展馆的展出，可以呈现其可续行，及不会影响其生活品质的技术。
