Located in the Bintaro Jaya CBD within the Greater Jakarta Metropolitan Area, Bintaro Jaya Xchange occupies a 19ha superblock on which the first phase retail is already complete. The second phase features an 85,000sqm retail mall, central park and ‘Oceanarium’ attraction, while the final phase will see residential, commercial offices and a 4-star hotel managed by an international hotel group complete the mixed-use destination. Benefiting from a transit-oriented approach, the development features major arterial road connections, direct basement links to a commuter rail station and a pedestrian-friendly network. The design concept takes reference from the well-known Javan rice terraces, creating a multi-level landscaped environment across the entire development. The approach injects greenery into the public and private areas and allows each of the components to benefit from the natural elements. Anchoring the development is the Central Park, a generous green space which enlivens the social and physical offerings of the mixed-use scheme. In addition to integrating and capitalising on the Central Park for recreation and entertainment opportunities, the design strategy aims to maximise circulation across the masterplan and development with connections below-ground, at ground level and above-ground on multiple floors. With a multi-disciplinary scope covering masterplanning, concept architecture and detailed design, Lead8 has transformed this prime South Tangerang site into a multi-level, multi-dimensional landscaped destination. Bintaro Jaya Xchange is Lead8’s first completed development in Indonesia, expanding the design firm’s presence and portfolio across Southeast Asia.
