The Mill
Singapore

A rare whole-building B1 landmark, offered for private preview.

Beyond a functional commercial address — architectural presence, city-fringe connectivity, and a creative-industrial identity the market already knows.

For buyers who care about brand, control, and scarcity.

The Mill stands apart on the city fringe — a dark-façade, fortified silhouette with a creative-industrial character you won't find in ordinary B1 stock.

The address at 5 Jalan Kilang has carried a creative identity since the late 1960s, when the original building operated as a studio and event space for cross-disciplinary design work. The current structure, completed in 2017, is a collaboration between KRI:IET Associates and architect James Adams, blending Gothic and Art Deco influences that give its dark, striking façade such presence today.

Rebuilt from the shell of the former rice mill into a six-storey building, it now houses a community of creative and design-led occupiers at a Bukit Merah / Alexandra address with genuine presence.

Whether you're evaluating it as a future headquarters, a family-office or HNW portfolio asset, or a longer-term repositioning play, The Mill offers something rarer than floor area: a lineage and an identity.

A rare chance to preview the whole building.

Six-metre ceilings, a fortified Gothic tower, and a façade that mixes post-industrial American influence with Singapore's industrial roots — The Mill is not a building you divide up and simply hope will work. It's a building with a point of view, and previewing it whole is the only way to see that.

What matters isn't just square footage. It's whether the building gives you the right mix of architecture, location, operating flexibility, and whole-building control — and a tenant mix that's been carefully handpicked and curated, ready for you to inherit from day one.

Asset Facts
The facts behind the form.

From former rice mill to six-storey creative-industrial landmark.

The original rice mill structure was transformed into the six-storey building that now stands at 5 Jalan Kilang, preserving the site's industrial soul while giving it an entirely new architectural identity.

Its design language combines post-industrial American influences, Art Deco references, and a fortified Gothic tower presence — giving the building the feel of both a commercial asset and a brand statement.

Dual tower language
One tower carries Art Deco influence; the other, Gothic styling — a deliberate contrast that gives the building its signature tension and makes it instantly recognisable on the skyline.
Creative hub character
From its tenant mix to its interiors, The Mill reads more like a branded creative-industrial address than a generic B1 building — a distinction that shapes both experience and positioning.

Floorplan Overview
A level-by-level view of how the building works.

One continuous view, easier to understand at a glance.

The floorplan below reads as one continuous six-storey story — from ground-floor arrival and driveway access, through the second-level garden terrace and F&B-approved component, up to the upper-floor workspace plates and roof terrace.

It's the fastest way to grasp the building's circulation, floorplate rhythm, and the range of uses it can support.

Six-Storey Floorplan Read

Follow the building from arrival to rooftop.

See The Mill as one connected asset, not a stack of separate floors. This view shows how arrival, circulation, ground-floor activation, upper-level workspace, and the roof terrace all work together — the flow that makes the building feel whole, not assembled.

Whether you're picturing a headquarters, a flagship space, creative-industrial operations, a showroom, or a leasing play, this is the fastest way to see how the building fits your plans.

1st storey: The ground level sets the first impression, with the driveway condition and lower-level access shaping how visitors, staff, deliveries, and daily movement enter the property.
2nd storey: The second level introduces the garden-terrace condition and the noted F&B-approved component, giving the building a stronger lifestyle and activation layer than ordinary B1 stock.
3rd storey: The third level begins the upper-floor rhythm, helping buyers visualise how offices, studios, showrooms, or tenant suites may sit within the building.
4th storey: The fourth level continues the upper-plate pattern, useful for thinking through circulation, tenancy mix, and possible separation between occupiers or departments.
5th storey: The fifth level reinforces the stacked workspace format, which may be relevant for buyers studying multi-tenant leasing, owner-use plus rental income, or phased occupation.
6th storey: The top level incorporates the roof terrace, adding an upper-level character layer that may matter for brand, experience, and private-use positioning.

Why It Feels Different
Why this does not read like ordinary B1 stock.
01 · Provenance
Recognisable design story

The Mill carries a design pedigree few industrial buildings can claim — a collaboration among KRI:IET Associates, James Adams Design, and Swan & Maclaren that gives it a story worth remembering.

02 · Architecture
Art Deco and Gothic contrast

The two towers draw on distinct Art Deco and Gothic influences, creating a fortified and memorable silhouette that is difficult to replicate.

03 · SCALE
Volume that few B1 buildings offer

Six-metre ceilings and 2.4-metre windows give every floorplate a sense of volume and light rarely found in industrial stock — space that reads as premium the moment you walk in.

04 · OCCUPIER PROFILE
A creative hub, not a commodity box

The occupier mix has long favoured creative and design-led businesses, giving the building a culture and visual identity that feel curated rather than generic.

05 · Amenity
Garden-podium F&B approval

The Mill includes an approved F&B unit at the second-level garden podium — a rare lifestyle and activation layer that most B1 properties simply do not have.

06 · CONTROL
Whole-building ownership, not a shared stack

Whole-building ownership places the architecture, tenant mix, and future direction under one owner and one decision-making structure.
