The Paiza Collection – comprising mostly suites and served by Singapore's largest butler team – forms a key part of Marina Bay Sands' multi-year transformation towards brand and service elevation, as the integrated resort draws on the world's best designers and craftsmen to create a new land of luxury.
Complementing the infrastructural changes, the new brand vision 'Above Beyond' will herald a new era. The statement is designed to convey both the unique height and grandeur of its iconic architecture, as well as Marina Bay Sands' unwavering ambition to surpass expectations and set new benchmarks in hospitality. A multi-million-dollar brand redesign and campaign envisioned in-house and executed by world-class creatives including Pentagram New York, Frosty and acclaimed filmmaker Celine Song, articulates the resort's ongoing ambition to cement its place as one of the leading destinations in the world.
"From inception, Marina Bay Sands had a forward-looking vision, designed to reshape the tourism landscape of Singapore. Since our opening in 2010, we have defied expectations again and again, and become one of the most successful integrated resorts in the world," said Paul Town, Marina Bay Sands' Chief Operating Officer. "We are now at the next stage of development with our ambitious transformation that is pushing the boundaries of luxury hospitality. The new brand vision and property refurbishment is timely as it mirrors and complements this vision, setting the tone as we enter the next phase of growth."
The milestone was announced at a global press event held at Sands Theatre today by Town, together with Sands Global Ambassador David Beckham and Chief Marketing Officer Irene Lin.
Reaching a new pinnacle of luxury with the Paiza Collection
First announced in 2022, Marina Bay Sands' transformation has been undertaken in phases, starting with new hotel rooms and suites across its iconic three towers, premium dining experiences and lifestyle amenities. The transformation will also include the Sands SkyPark, lobby and wellness facilities.
The latest milestone is the completion of the Paiza Collection, made up of first-class rooms and suites which are unprecedented in the world of luxury hospitality and design.
Gracing the top floors and taking prime spot in the landmark address, it houses the most opulent accommodation including the Chairman, Presidential, Skyline and Horizon Suites. Guests arrive via a discreet lobby with private lifts and are escorted to their palatial, residential-style suites by their personal butler.
At 630 square metres, the Chairman Suite is designed for entertaining on a spectacular scale, with a 146" television, a baby grand piano, spa and gym facilities, and a fully stocked kitchen for dinner parties. The Presidential and Skyline Suites are fitted with a state-of-the-art golf simulator — loaded with over 45 renowned golf courses — or a media room with over 300,000 karaoke songs. The Horizon Suite is a pampering wellness sanctuary with a Himalayan salt wall, massage tables, dry sauna, hammam shower and gym.
To date, approximately 1,540 new rooms, including 635 suites, have been completed, and all rooms from the original design have been retired from inventory. Refurbishment works are now focused on completing the Sands Collection in Tower 3 by the second quarter of 2025. Once complete, there will be approximately 1,850 rooms including 775 suites — a significant increase from the original number of 180 suites.
While distinct in their own way, all suites share a commitment to design excellence, featuring bespoke designs and objects co-created with the finest local and international artisans, each carefully chosen for their dedication to craft.
These include the United Kingdom's Fromental with its bespoke hand-embroidered wall covering, and Savoir Beds from Wales, known for its mattresses constructed by hand using centuries-old techniques and filled with layers of hand-teased horse tail, Mongolian yak wool and pure cashmere. Bespoke leather products by local crafters Bynd Artisan add an additional touch of class to the suites.
Above Beyond in every way
The new pinnacle in luxury experiences comes in tandem with a brand transformation. 'Above Beyond' celebrates the timelessness, spirit and energy of the integrated resort, building on the existing legacy and elevating its status as an iconic, world-class destination.
The new brand vision aligns with the future ambitions of Marina Bay Sands and reflects the physical makeover that the property has undergone to broaden and elevate its range of product and service offerings, with the premium customer in mind.
Every aspect of the brand, from its logo and website to hotel amenities, key cards, branded experiences and uniforms worn by staff, has been redesigned to elevate the brand experience to the highest levels of quality and beauty.
Front-of-house staff have also been trained to embody the ethos of the new brand, leveraging the industry-first Forbes Travel Guide standards. The 160-strong Butler Services team, which features the largest butler force in Singapore, undergoes rigorous training and audit at the in-house Butler Academy.
"Our new master brand has been a massive but critical undertaking as we chart a new direction that embraces the ever-evolving needs and aspirations of the modern traveller of today. 'Above Beyond' embodies our ambition to uplift Marina Bay Sands not only as a global cultural icon, but to position the integrated resort as a gamechanger in the luxury hospitality industry. Every single detail, down to the service culture among our more than 11,700-strong workforce, is imbued with our new brand DNA to create a sense of belonging and build a stronger emotional connection with our guests," said Lin.
Added Beckham: "Marina Bay Sands is a truly special place - even though I've travelled around the world, I always look forward to coming back. A lot has changed since my last visit, and the luxury transformation of the property is truly remarkable. It is a brand that always aspires to be the best in everything it does. That is what I love most about this amazing destination, and why I'm proud to be Sands Global Ambassador."
A global collective of creative visionaries
To capture the power and significance of both the transformation and the multifaceted experience of the destination, Marina Bay Sands commissioned a multidisciplinary group of creative visionaries to interpret and express 'Above Beyond' in their own way.
The integrated resort's new visual identity and brand world were developed in partnership with globally renowned creatives from international design consultancy Pentagram and creative agency Frosty, together with the Marina Bay Sands in-house creative team.
Through bold graphic identity, an evocative short film, striking visuals and one-of-a-kind experiences, the story of this transformation has been brought to life. At the heart of this launch is a set of stories, the first of which is expressed by acclaimed filmmaker Celine Song, best known for her Oscar-nominated debut film Past Lives. The film presents Marina Bay Sands as a universe simmering with possibilities.
As part of this multi-part campaign launch, a suite of over 500 assets comprising campaign photographs and short-form videos was also commissioned, featuring globally renowned Shanghai-based fashion photographer Nick Yang, Singapore-based photographers Khoo Guo Jie, Juliana Tan, Jovian Lim and Stefan Khoo, as well as director Caleb Huang. Another 10 video vignettes showcase the superb craftsmanship and savoir faire behind the curation of interior design details.
"Modern brands are not defined by one campaign or key visual - they are built through creation of whole 'brand worlds', multifaceted expressions of feeling and place through storytelling. Today our destination is proud to unveil the many emotive facets of our refreshed brand through design, film, photography, experiences and much more," added Lin.
The campaign launches today and will run into next year.

Limited-edition designs of Bellroy's lightweight, everyday bags and pouches from the Cinch range.
MELBOURNE, Australia, Jan. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Bellroy released new limited-edition products to their Cinch collection in celebration of the Year of the Horse, with colors, silhouettes and hidden messages representing calm and relaxation. The custom designs capture the symbolism of the new year with an injection of modernity, with crimson to represent lucky red, seafoam green as a nod to spring, and hidden messages of rest and readiness, unique to each style. These limited-edition products are available now at bellroy.com and at select retailers.
Products:
- Cinch Backpack – Year of the Horse Edition
- Cinch Mini Messenger – Year of the Horse Edition
- Cinch Pocket – Year of the Horse Edition
- Cinch Pouch – Year of the Horse Edition
- New Year Horse Charm
- New Year Owl Charm
Bellroy is also offering customers the New Year Horse Charm and New Year Owl Charm as gifts with the purchase of the Cinch Backpack – Year of the Horse Edition or Mini Messenger – Year of the Horse Edition (while stocks last). The horse charm, molded from clay and developed through 3D printing, features two snuggling horses sitting on a diamond-style knot that loosely resembles a traditional Chinese knot. Bellroy Designer Rowan Dinning says, "For Year of the Horse, we didn't want to signal a hustle culture, like the cliché, prancing pony. We focused more on being in connection with family and that sense of community when putting together the capsule."
This capsule is a modern take on a year that is often tied to speed, ambition and momentum. Bellroy reframes the story: rest and prepare, then move with purpose. "The idea was inspired by the phonetic similarity between 'Cinch' and the Chinese word '松弛' (sōngchí), which means relaxed, chilled or loosened. The design language of the Cinch family – playful structure, soft and lightweight materials – further reinforces this 'chilled' feeling," says Bellroy BD Project Manager Fiona Fang.
Cinch Backpack – Year of the Horse Edition
Cinch Mini Messenger – Year of the Horse Edition
Cinch Pocket – Year of the Horse Edition
Cinch Pouch – Year of the Horse Edition
New Year Horse Charm and New Year Owl Charm
