The Tower benefits from five major transport hubs within walking distance, making it convenient to access all corners of the capital with ease and speed. London City Airport is an additional asset, being under 30 minutes away.

LONDON’S PRINCIPAL ADDRESS Principal Tower is a soaring testimony to London’s continuing influence and vision. The first residential tower in London fully-designed, both inside and out, by worldrenowned Foster + Partners, combines spectacular architecture and breath-taking views with intelligent, elegant design of the highest specification. Each of the luxurious apartments in this 50-storey tower also benefits from the residents’ gym and spa, screening room, lap pool, 24-hour concierge and the new, tree-lined piazza of shops, restaurants and bars. With a City address, but within walking distance of trend-setting Shoreditch, Principal Tower offers fast, efficient transport links, as well as a wealth of cultural and culinary experiences.

ICONIC MASTERPIECE Principal Tower is set to join the cast of architectural landmarks on London’s iconic skyline, which includes masterpieces from the Richard Rogers Partnership, Rafael Viùoly and Kohn Pedersen Fox. Designed by Foster + Partners, this svelte new addition is the epitome of understated elegance. Inspired by the architectural landmarks in its vicinity and the historic views it offers across the capital, Foster + Partners has created a design that responds to the uniqueness of its location both geographically and culturally. Principal Tower offers the opportunity to own an architectural masterpiece, equivalent to a priceless piece of art, that will give constant pleasure and lasting value.

Foster + Partners is a fully integrated practice bringing together the expertise of architects, interior designers, engineers, industrial designers, project managers and master planners, which has achieved global renown and recognition.

A VISIONARY EYE Great Court British Museum, UK

Foster + Partners has long championed a sustainable approach to design whether applied to architecture and urban masterplans or product design and interiors. Being sensitive to location and culture, it often combines the latest in radical building technologies with techniques drawn from local, vernacular traditions. Architects, interior designers and engineers are encouraged to combine knowledge and together devise integrated and sustainable design solutions that will enrich the communities in which they build. Each project is reviewed regularly, both formally and informally, under the direction of the Design Board, which is led by founder and Chairman Norman Foster. While Foster + Partners is credited with devising some of the greatest architectural masterpieces of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, it has never lost sight of a design ethos that combines radical vision with responsible practice.

PRINCIPAL PLACE


PRINCIPAL PLACE Principal Tower is the signature landmark of the Principal Place development. This mixed-use scheme comprises a new half-acre public piazza, 600,000 sq ft of state-of-the-art office space and 20,000 sq ft of retail space. The latter includes a lively offering of bars, cafĂŠs, restaurants and fashionable boutiques.

50

51


Principal Tower is bordered by a newly created public piazza, landscaped with trees and green spaces. Residents also benefit from amenities that include a lap pool, spa, a state-of-the-art gym, private cinema, 24-hour concierge and residents’ lounge. There are subterranean bicycle storage facilities available and opportunities to acquire parking spaces.

52

53


PRINCIPAL TOWER


Conceived to complement the already iconic skyline, Principal Tower’s Principal Tower apartments soar above the London landscape. With views embracing Canary Wharf, Foster + Partners’ iconic Gherkin, the London Eye, Hyde Park and Buckingham Palace the location is second to none.

56



A VERY

PE R SO NA L STATEMENT

60

61


LONDON IN WIDESCREEN

62

While Principal Tower is a building of unquestionable architectural merit, it is from inside looking out that its true splendour is revealed. At 50-storeys high, it offers spectacular panoramic views over the dramatic London skyline.

63



A PLACE TO UNWIND

67


CITY LIGHTS

68

By day, the Principal Tower apartments are flooded with natural light, providing an ambience that is both energising and life-enhancing. By night, residents can enjoy a privileged view of the lights and romance of the world’s most vibrant capital city from the tranquility of their own elevated sanctuary.

69


YOUR HOME IN THE SKY

70

Every apartment has been spatially configured to maximise the impact of the views beyond, with many of the open-plan living areas leading directly onto balconies. Herringbone oak floors, neutral walls and full-height windows provide the ideal canvas against which the city’s ever-changing panorama can be enjoyed. These views are the focal point of the Principal Tower apartments.

71



TONAL VALUES The interior design team has chosen two palettes for the Principal Tower apartments: Caviar and Champagne. These distinguish the kitchen and bathroom areas, while living/dining rooms enjoy the same core design of warm timber floors and white-painted walls.

74


A PLACE TO ENTERTAIN

KITCHEN — CAVIAR The deeply dramatic Caviar palette features dark-stained timber doors, Caesarstone worktop and spectacular metallic splash-back. The latter is highlighted to theatrical effect by concealed down-lighters, creating a design that looks as chic by night as it does by day.

76

77


KITCHEN — CHAMPAGNE The Champagne palette is an airy combination of light-coloured timber and Caesarstone worktop with feature metallic splash-back. This creates a warm, soft effect that complements the natural daylight from which the Principal Tower apartments particularly benefit. Closed storage and full-height cupboards achieve a seamless effect.

78

79


BATHROOM The bathroom colour palettes complement those in the rest of the apartments. The marble worktops, chrome detailing, high gloss surfaces and underfloor heating are a glamorous combination that speaks of traditional luxury but with a very contemporary signature.

81

THE BEAUTY OF CALM

SPA & GYM The private swimming pool is located on the first floor of the Tower. This allows swimmers to feel as though they are floating just above the city streets. A metal-finish feature wall creates a sculptural focus, complementing porcelain floor tiles and textured walls.

92

93


The spa and gym have been designed to complement the apartments in terms of the palette of materials, emphasising the fact that this is a private space for residents. Warm and earthy tones are offset by contrasting metallic effects for added interest and character.

The spa and gym are on the first floor, adjacent to the piazza, ensuring these are pleasant and airy spaces with the benefit of lots of natural light and interesting vistas. Parquet timber flooring, mirrored walls and wrap-around steel columns create a look that is smart and inviting.

94

95


SCREENING ROOM

CONCIERGE AND PARKING

The multi-purpose screening room, adjacent to the residents’ bar, has seating that can be configured in a number of ways, according to purpose and the ambience required. Residents can hire this space for private parties and screenings, including film, music or games entertainment, as well as for business conferences.

A dedicated concierge service provides residents with a five-star level of service 24 hours a day.

96

There are dozens of car parking spaces in the Tower’s subterranean car park, including spaces for disabled users. The car park is accessed via two state-of-the-art car lifts for additional security. Recognising that London is also enjoying a resurgence in bike use, Principal Tower also provides ample bicycle spaces for residents.

97
