The new SMU Connexion (SMUC) building is located between SMU’s School of Accountancy and School of Law. The new building added 8,565.94 m² of teaching-and-learning space to SMU’s city campus.

It enables seamless connectivity through the entire SMU city campus, as well as provides a sheltered link (aboveground and underground) from Bras Basah Road leading to Fort Canning and Armenian Street.
Besides enhancing convenience for the SMU community, it also benefits members of the public, who will have better access to the lush greenery at Fort Canning Park.
With some of the new building’s spaces and facilities being open 24/7, it also adds vibrancy to the Bras Basah precinct.
To support the University’s SMU-X pedagogy, which focuses on experiential learning through real-world projects, SMU Connexion building is designed to provide new-generation learning spaces that boast flexibility and future adaptability.
These include active learning classrooms, the bunks, collaborative zones, social pantry, jamming room, games lounge, integrated learning studios, makers space and student lounges.
The ample active learning spaces will enable students’ meetings with industry practitioners and faculty, as well as promote socialising.
About 500 m² will also be set aside as incubation spaces for start-ups to provide an environment that fosters innovation and entrepreneurship among SMU students and alumni.
SMU is the only City Campus in Singapore and among very few in the world. It is in the heart of Singapore’s civic district. It provides a natural focal point and central gathering space for students, faculty as well as the public.
There is a need to enliven the Campus through creative design and implementation of environmental features and activity-generating facilities to transform the SMU City Campus into a modern bustling central space for communal activity. And thus enhancement of Campus Green project through innovation, to create new spaces for SMU’s evolving teaching, learning & CCA needs took place with following goals and objectives:
The project was initially planned to be completed in 34 months. But after careful review of the functions of the facilities and through continuous effort on revising construction planning, the project is shortened to 20 months. This 20 months construction period is again divided in three phases to minimize impact on existing users who are using the facilities. After the project completed there will be addition in capacity of various facilities.

The layout and design of Campus Green will be enhanced to realise it's potential as the truly pulsating heartbeat of SMU. While preserving the existing view corridor between the National Museum and the Singapore Art Museum, activity-generating areas and infrastructure that support new lifestyle expectations, informal interaction and collaboration, as well as artistic expressions will be injected to Campus Green, while maintaining natural openness and part ambience.
Three key facilities - "The Curve" CCA area, an amphitheatre, and a fitness centre - to be introduced on Campus Green, will be primary activators that change the ground, through the day and night. Urban design features will make the SMU Campus Green active, comfortable and accessible. The development will further integrate SMU into the city and enable the University to further engage our various stakeholder groups in the larger community.

The fitness centre will be enlarged and enhanced to meet the lifestyle habits of the millennial student, and to provide an experiential learning space to support SMU's sports curriculum. Stretching from the SMU Concourse in the basement to the Campus Green on the ground level, the Fitness Centre looks out to the heritage [correct?] Yes. Bodhi Tree and The Curve - enclosed yet feeling much like an 'outdoor' space. The Fitness Centre facade has also designed to support SMU's Greenmark Platinum status.

Additional learning and teaching spaces will be created to alleviate the current space crunch and will support SMU's vision to provide transformative education for a new generation of graduates. Flexible event spaces, seminar rooms, and dedicated study areas for SMU students will inject a flow of life, ideas and knowledge into the SMU Concourse area below ground-level. These learning spaces are where new ideas are created and shared between students and faculty, and where critical thinking, collaboration and learning can take place.

SMU's basement Concourse provide a covered link to all facilities and buildings within the SMU campus in the city. Here, the introduction of a three-level fitness centre allows for the creation of new and vibrant nodal points. The design allows for the yoga, Pilates and Gymnasium (fitness centre) to be used even on weekends and will welcome more life and traffic flow in to the Concourse.
