Welcome!
One of the many great things about my job is having the opportunity to visit new places and try out different experiences. Since the last issue, I’ve spent a long weekend in the Algarve staying at Quinta do Lago and exploring the Ria Formosa natural park. The resort has recently opened a new state-of-the-art sports and wellness centre and so I was intrigued to watch padel being played before having a lesson myself. For the uninitiated, as I was, it’s a racquet sport that’s a cross between tennis and squash which is usually played in doubles. While the game has become very popular in Portugal and Spain, it’s still catching on in the UK but I’m determined to find somewhere so that I can keep it up! I also had the pleasure of an Audi Q8 press car for a few days. Although it proved a very different drive to my Mercedes SLC, I was soon able to adapt to its much larger dimensions. A change of many things in life is often considered a good move whether its permanent or temporary. With this in mind, if you’re looking for a new home, supercar, superyacht or fabulous holiday destination, a browse through these pages should leave you full of inspiration.

ake a drive or even a short walk around London and you’ll be amazed at the amount of building work that is constantly taking place. Cranes are operating, sites are hives of activity and buildings are being demolished or renovated only to spring up again, better than before and with everything demanded for 21st century living. Simon De Friend, joint CEO, Regal London, comments, “Developers remain active in the London market, with both smaller schemes through to landmark regeneration sites emerging across the capital. Politics, planning and the economic climate has – and will in future – always play a part in demand and supply. That said, owneroccupiers and investors alike can take comfort in the underlying resilience of the London market, thanks to the ever-growing infrastructure, the world-class education on offer, and the strength of industry, particularly technology and finance. “As an SME housebuilder, we are continuing to acquire sites where we can deliver a bespoke offering for our buyers. There is a distinct appetite for a tailored product at present. Dedicated to delivering high quality homes, north and north-east London is our heartland, but the likes of Clapham, where we recently acquired a site, also offers ongoing potential. While Queen’s Park, St John’s Wood and Clapham are already well established, there are opportunities to fulfil the » enduring demand.” » 11

There has been a noticeable increase in interest in London property from the US and India
Chestertons reports that interest in London residential property from the US and India has surged over the last three years. It reports that the US has been the most active foreign country by a considerable margin, with visits to its website from the US between January and March 2019 up 85% on the same period in 2018. The company also reports growing interest in the London property market from India, with web traffic up by 94% during the same period. Guy Gittins, managing director of Chestertons, says, “There has been a noticeable increase in interest in London property from the US and India, mainly thanks to the weakness of the pound, coupled with the fact that prices have come down by as much as 20% since the peak, therefore making London property a very attractive investment opportunity. “Our Mayfair, Hyde Park and Canary Wharf offices have seen an increase in enquiries from Indian buyers, while our Hyde Park and Westminster offices have seen some increase in enquiries from US buyers. A common theme among both nationalities that we are dealing with is that they are taking a longerterm view about London and the UK. Brexit is generally regarded as a shorter-term blip which will not detract to any significant degree from London’s pedigree as a world city and a safe haven.”

T
he NH Hotel Group’s design and lifestyle brand ‘nhow’ currently has hotels in Berlin, Rotterdam, Milan and Marseille and is launching into the UK for the first time this summer. Located within the landmark development 250 City Road, nhow London is on the fringe of Shoreditch, long regarded as one of the capital’s most dynamic and creative hubs. The hotel plays homage to both the area’s industrial past and technological future. The eight-floor hotel will house 190 vibrant rooms, a restaurant called The Bell – a reinvention of the British pub – a bar, gym and three meeting rooms called Laboratories. The theme ‘London reloaded’ features throughout the hotel with bold and fresh design taking inspiration from traditional British icons, such as the Royal Family, London landmarks and the underground. All have an unconventional and contemporary take, with stand-out features including a Big Ben rocket sculpture in the lobby, tables featuring cockney rhyming slang and oversized gold bell lights, a reminder of the city’s famous church bells. Colourful textures will confront contemporary art in the rooms, creating an unforgettable version of London. Punk will meet high tech style, while graffiti will appear alongside unconventional images of past monarchs. www.nhow-hotels.com

The need to capture and understand the light, to play with it and tame it is one of the keys to the success of each project
S
pecialising in luxury residences, ARK Architects offers its customers comprehensive services ranging from the initial concept to the overall implementation of each project. The company’s work strategy comprises construction and development, project management, interior design and landscaping. The different phases that give life to an ARK project have been conceived and devised to fulfil that goal while respecting quality parameters defined by the firm. Nothing is left to chance. The study of the land, the lifestyle of the families, a personalised architectural idea, the interior design and an exhaustive technical and implementation phase all give the service it offers a standard of luxury, something its clients seek for the project of their lives.
Expeential architecture
Manuel Ruiz Moriche, director of ARK, explains, “Our architecture is experiential. It's not only about constructing walls but also about creating spaces to generate unforgettable experiences. Our work begins with the localisation of the plot and the analysis and study of factors influencing the terrain, like its topography, orientation or development conditions. If the choice of the place is paramount, the lifestyle of the future inhabitants is no less important, a lifestyle determined by their hobbies, tastes and personal styles, the family typology or any other specific project requirements.” ARK thinks of the homes it creates as a tailored suit because we don’t all live the same way, nor do we have similar operating protocols. “We offer an architectural solution that adapts to the client’s lifestyle,” continues Mr Ruiz Moriche, “and only in this way can we create a liveable house. To reach that goal the interaction with the client is very important and it is essential to know what their or their family’s lifestyle is. The need to capture and
understand the light, to play with it and tame it is one of the keys to the success of each project.” ARK Architects goes beyond the physical dimension of constructing a building. It creates atmospheres, spaces and experiences in order to give the true sense of living at home. Mr Ruiz Moriche concludes, “A place that maintains its DNA is the key that will allow an architectural project to awaken our emotions.” ARK Architect t: +34 95 679 3166 e: info@ark-arquitectos.com www.ark-architects.com

Few other London neighbourhoods can count such a celebrated array of restaurants, shops and hotels as local attractions. Many of London’s Michelin-star restaurants are in Mayfair; Le Gavroche, Hibiscus and The Greenhouse, to name but three. Grand hotels, upholding standards of old-style glamour, include The Connaught, The Dorchester and The Berkeley; all of which have Michelin-star restaurants too.

Peace Palace Yuan Lih Construction’s mixed-use residential development Peace Palace has won a trio of property awards. Its architecture synthesises classical art history and modern culture, creating a figurative landmark. Designed on the basis of the new classical style, this towering 38-storey building with its crown-shaped roof symbolically bears reference to a mighty king on his throne. Peace Palace’s architectural exterior simulates the style of a European castle with magnificent granite stonework and fascinating geometrical shapes. The building’s façade also resembles ancient Greek temples with its monumental appearance while also providing an earthquake-resistant residence. Peace Palace is adjacent to a wellpreserved building constructed during the Japanese colonial period and this exemplifies the ennobling connection between the ancient and modern architectural cultures.

Baguette diamond channel set shoulders wrap around the ring itself to create an elegant effect. Guy Burton, director of Hancocks London, says, “Once settled on what was quite an ambitious design, our craftsman got to work on creating a halo around the diamond, with the design requiring it to be cut from just one single piece of onyx rather than eight individual pieces. This was quite a challenge and involved hours and hours of hand carving and seven

Van Gogh and Britain Until August 11th at Tate Britain, Embankment, London, UK www.tate.org.uk
This is another blockbuster exhibition sponsored by EY (formerly Ernst & Young) at the Tate Britain following those by Picasso and Bonnard. This time the name in the frame is Van Gogh, with famous works like ‘Sunflowers’ and ‘Starry Night’ brought alongside other lesser knows, including the deeply moving ‘Prisoners Exercising’ painted at the Saint-Paul Asylum. The tenuous crux of the show is Van Gogh's time in Britain and the influence of British artists like Constable and Millais on him. Aged 20 Van Gogh spent less than two years in London, living in Brixton and working for the art dealers Goupil & Co with whom he soon quarrelled over their commoditisation of art. How prescient you might think! Nevertheless this is the biggest assembly of works by Van Gogh 10 years so join the queues and if you are sensitive about the fate of this tragic genius, seen here in the sublime Self Portrait on loan from Washington, bring a hanky.

However, you don't really have to know anything about the Early Renaissance to appreciate what Vasari called the ‘rare and perfect talent’ of the angelic friar of Fiesole whose restored ‘The Annunciation’ and more recently acquired ‘Virgin of the Pomegranate’ are the centrepiece of this exhibition. As if that were not enough, works by the greatest masters of the period including Masaccio, Filippo Lippi, Donatello and Ghiberti will transport you into a period of the Renaissance where it seems artists really were touched by the hand of God.

What could a woman determined to pursue her own artistic career but married to Jack 'the Dripper' Pollock expect? At the very least, the shredding of her reputation. "There is a tendency among some wives to tidy up their husband's styles. Lee Krasner takes her husband's paint and enamels and changes his unrestrained, sweeping lines into neat little squares and triangles," wrote one ARTnews reviewer when she held a joint show with Pollock in 1939. The constant references to her husband affected Krasner. She hid her gender by signing works LK – or not at all. She destroyed hundreds of paintings in the belief that they were not up to scratch. Working side by side with Pollock in their two studios at the marital home in Springs, New York, at a time when the art scene was totally dominated by men, Krasner was bound to be eclipsed. The Barbican show, which brings together 100 works by Lee Krasner in New York City

Now 87, his works have made him a multimillionaire but delve into his world and you will be surprised by the methods that have delivered this fortune, especially the use of a squeegee loaded with paint and rubbed and scraped over photographs. Richter, who experiments endlessly with method and materials, often uses photographs as source material. Among his oeuvre is a celebrated body of seascapes in a range of formats and styles painted from the 1960s to 1990s.

First impresons Janey Butler, founder of Janey Butler Interiors
t’s no secret that first impressions really do count, and this is never more evident than in the entrance to your home. It’s important that the space is welcoming to incoming guests, setting an impactful tone and creating a seamless link and flow to neighbouring rooms. Effective design of such a space marries form and function; the staircase represents the metaphorical spine of the home. Historically accepted as a necessary but aesthetically uninviting feature, modern staircase designs are now architectural and sculptural masterpieces. From more traditional angular constructs, framing hallways with mirrored symmetry, to softer, organic shapes with cascading clean lines.
With Janey Butler Interiors' and Llama Architects' multi-award winning Forest Cottage project, a new, vaulted glass entrance with a solid oak frame was created; linking the old cottage, marrying the old and new together seamlessly. The space is clean, white and flooded with natural light; the focal point a bespoke plastered staircase connecting one elevation to another. At the stunning Lakeview House project, a bespoke 188 bronze bud chandelier lighting installation was featured in the newly created entrance hallway above the grand polish plastered staircase. The addition of feature lighting transforms a space; creating an instantaneous and enduring impression. Not only does the elegant lighting sculpture possess functional attributes, it also adds an impressive and captivating focal point to a symmetrical space. www.janeybutler.co.uk

Quality over quantity
Kristina Zanic, founder of Kristina Zanic Consultants o a designer the entrance hall design is as important as the whole interior design scheme itself – being the first room that touches every guest’s eye and attention whilst entering the space. There are some design tips and tweaks that can however aid you to make whichever size entry hall thrive with style. Lighting is key – manipulate the light so it accents the important parts, maybe a good painting or a mirror, even the stairs can be highlighted. Another great thing to make your entrance hall pop is a feature wall, being the ideal place for displaying your favourite arts and accessories. Staircases are a big part of the room, so keeping their design in mind is smart if you want to make a real statement. Last but not least, space is preeminent when working with the entrance hall. If your entry hall is already large, do not make it smaller by filling it up with too much décor or details. Keep it simple by using a minimalistic pattern and make only a couple of details stand out. The same counts for the furniture, where it should be about quality rather than quantity as one chaise lounge, a piano or great ottoman bench are often more than enough to give off a great impact. www.kristinazanic.com

TWILIGHT TRIBUTE TO LE MANS his summer’s Silverstone Classic from July 26th to 28th will honour Le Mans, the sportscar showdowns under the evocative ‘Twilight Tribute to Le Mans’ banner. It was launched at the special Silverstone Classic Preview by Tom Kristensen, the great Danish racer who holds the record for the most outright victories at Le Mans. He has won the gallic endurance epic nine times, six of which were consecutive successes between 2000 and 2005. Nick Wigley, Silverstone Classic CEO, says, “The three races cover almost the entire history of Le Mans from the original ‘Bentley Boys’ right up to the current generation of hi-tech Peugeot and Aston Martin purpose-built prototypes.” Tickets must be purchased in advance and will provide access to both Silverstone racing paddocks, all open trackside grandstands, live music concerts, air shows, Drive Live test drives and much more. www.silverstoneclassic.com

Back on track The historic Formula One cars that took legends including Niki Lauda, James Hunt and Jackie Stewart to victory are back on track this year for another exciting season of racing in the UK, Europe and the USA organised by Masters Historic Racing. Catering for Formula One cars from 1966 through to 1985, all cars race in their period livery, delivering a superb spectacle of sight, sound and real racing, something that modern Formula One seem to have lost. Spectators are also allowed to mingle around the paddock and get close up to the cars and see the teams and drivers preparing their cars for the track.
Life-saving legacy Businessman Richard Colton left an extraordinary legacy to the RNLI of two of the world’s rarest Ferraris. At auction, a 1960 red Ferrari 250 GT SWB sold for £6.6m, while a silver 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 made £1.93m – making them the most valuable items ever left to the RNLI in a single legacy. Part of this has been used to fund the all-weather lifeboat ‘Richard and Caroline Colton’ and launch and recovery system for the lifeboat at Hastings. The Shannon class lifeboat is the first of the RNLI’s all-weather lifeboats to be powered by water-jets, making it the most agile and manoeuvrable lifeboat in the charity’s fleet.

new survey by Engel & Völkers Yachting researching European marina prices makes interesting reading. The data is based on basic fees for a mooring berth for a 55-metre yacht during the high season in each location. José San Banus, Marbella’s exclusive marina, leads the table of the top 10 most expensive mooring berths in Europe in 2019. The mooring fee on the Costa del Sol has increased by 20 per cent over the previous year. “Compared to 2017, the daily mooring fees for a 55-metre yacht have increased in almost all 10 locations featured in the ranking,” said Anissa Mediouni, CEO of Engel & Völkers Yachting. The Marina di Porto Cervo on the northern coast of Sardinia near Olbia saw the highest rise in price – by 24 per cent. This takes Porto Cervo up into third place in
this year’s ranking of Europe’s most exclusive marinas. Second place goes to Ibiza Magna, last year’s frontrunner. European marinas remain in great demand. Particularly spectacular locations and a good infrastructure with shops, restaurants and other amenities are really driving prices even higher in the luxury segment.” The Italian marinas on Capri and in Portofino occupy the midfield of the ranking, in fourth and fifth place respectively. The Port de Saint-Tropez on the Côte d’Azur comes in sixth place in the ranking. Another French port, Marina Port Vauban on the Antibes coast, is ranked seventh. The largest port on the Côte d’Azur offers space for more than 1,600 yachts, including 19 superyachts. The Limassol Marina on Cyprus is ranked in eighth place, while a berth at the ACI Marina Split on Croatia’s Dalmatian coast secures ninth place. Port Hercule in Monte-Carlo, Monaco, completes ranking in 10th place. Seasonal events (such as trade shows, festivals and sporting events) as well as currency fluctuations can result in fluctuations to these basic prices in individual locations. In addition to this basic fee, leasing a mooring berth usually also involves additional costs for various services such as the provision of electricity and water, or the refuelling service. www.engelvoelkers.com »

Cruing in higher latitudes
As the Med gets increasingly crowded, and with much attendant hassle in the day to day logistics of operating amidst such overcrowding, more and more large yachts are heading to higher latitudes in the summer season. Iain Flockhart, a super yacht captain, says, “Alternative summer destinations such as Ireland, Scotland the Faroes, Scandinavia and the far north towards Svalbard offer absolutely stunning cruising. The added benefit of increased amounts of daylight, usually of a beautiful quality of light in itself, add to their cruising potential. There is already an initiative in place to help promote cruising in these higher latitudes called The Cool Route (www.sailcoolroute.eu). It is aimed at smaller craft as well and covers Ireland, Scotland, the Faroes and Norway. “Many owners are possibly put off by the fact that if their boat is based in the Med then it’s a bit of a hike and
will cost them a fair sum in fuel to get further north. Not so relevant however for sailing vessels that can often enjoy exhilarating passages in these higher latitudes with fair winds. One objective for captains can be to consider such cruising grounds in long term planning of the vessel’s schedule and research the best price fuel stops. Another option for sailing and motor yachts, as an offer to owners who have an appetite to explore, is to plan cruising routes of these northern grounds in conjunction with yard time.” Mr Flockhart points out that many of the world’s finest yachts were born or attend refits in the Netherlands or Germany, with smaller numbers also in the south of England. “So, to plan a high latitude cruising itinerary immediately after initial launch, (subject to proper sea trials and shake down of course), or when finishing a winter refit project or prior to such a winter yard period is very easy to do. You are basically there already at the gate to northern paradise. “Logistical supply and provisioning is good throughout northern Europe and this starts in the English Channel,” he advises. “If transiting directly to or from the Med pre or post visiting higher latitudes, bunkering of high quality fuel for example can be taken care of by Rubis Channel Islands. Part of the Rubis global group, it has the advantage of a prime location on the yacht transit routes at the western
end of the English Channel and offers some of the lowest fuel prices across Europe. “The destinations themselves are breath-taking and you will experience many more subtle attributes that will enchant you, like the amazing array of wildlife that can be seen off the coasts of Ireland and Scotland. The clarity of the waters will astound you and, one of my personal favourite attributes of these amazing cruising grounds, the intoxicating clarity of the air. “In Scotland, there are stunning sea lochs to explore and extremely good cartography to ensure safe passage, as is the case around most of Scandinavia. Beaches that you could only imagine exist in the South Pacific are in abundance in Scotland, along with amazing history and culture. The countless islands that are dotted around Scandinavia, and the stunning fjords and waterfalls of Norway. Keep going north to the wilderness of Spitzbergen, the largest and only permanently populated island of the Svalbard archipelago in northern Norway and experience 24 hours of daylight in the summer.” The opportunities are endless and with improved technology, careful planning and best arrangement of logistics and fuel stops, these beautiful destinations are more than ever in reach for well found yachts with adventurous owners. www.rubis-ci.co.uk

Seasons in the sun The aptly named Sunshine State of Florida has more than its fair share of good weather as well as a host of fabulous properties from which to enjoy the balmy temperatures
F
lorida is the only state that borders both the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean, meaning that its glorious beaches have become huge tourist attractions. Needless to say, as the home of the world’s best-known theme parks, including Disney World, Universal Studios, and SeaWorld, this proves another reason why the state is so popular for holidays and second homes. However, tucked well away from the crowds, Florida has another private side that appeals to those who yearn to get back to nature and enjoy peace and solitude. Dora Puig is sales and marketing director for Palazzo Del Sol and Palazzo Della Luna on Fisher Island
which is just a quick yacht or ferry ride from Miami Beach. “Fisher Island was recognised again as the ‘richest zip code in America’ (Bloomberg News), with the highest concentration of wealth at an average income of $2.2 million,” she explains. “HNWs are attracted to Fisher Island for the privacy and safety, all guests must be cleared by security prior, so there is zero crime rate on the island and no paparazzi. “The buildings have their own amenities including a theatre, salon, business centre, children’s playroom, Italian butler-staffed aperitivo bar and more. And of course, residents are privy to Fisher Island amenities like the golf course, tennis centre, multiple restaurants, two newly renovated full-service deep-water marinas, private white-sand beaches imported from Bahamas.” Within the high-end property market, Miami is seeing record-breakers in terms of sales and price per square foot. “The top of the market is on fire,” says Ms Puig. “We expect to continue to an increase in sales from buyers leaving high-tax US states (not just in the luxury sector), as well as global buyers leaving uncertain conditions.” 96

AFI EUROPE – SERBIA AIRPORT CITY BELGRADE City Within a City Airport City Belgrade has operated as a business park since 2005. Having developed to become the business address of the most prestigious companies operating in Belgrade, it today boasts 110 clients and the complex welcomes over 10,000 people per day. Over the course of its four development phases to date, ACB has emerged as a must on the Belgrade real estate market and a symbolic landmark of New Belgrade. The City Within a City concept proved superior and exceptionally attractive to all kinds of companies that share the common qualities of success and stability. The rate at which space has been leased has remained remarkably high throughout the previous development phases of this unique business park in Serbia, while a vast majority of the lessee companies are long-term tenants of Airport City Belgrade, many of which have even expanded their premises significantly. Following the completion of all five construction phases, ACB will comprise 210,000 square metres in 13 buildings, ready to accommodate all – even the most demanding companies – in its uniquely conceived business park in the most prestigious location in New Belgrade – a neighbourhood that has itself developed over the years to become the Serbian capital's central business district. Companies AFI Europe and Tidhar, Airport City’s investors, relying on the exceptional success of their brand in Belgrade, are expanding operations and building new residential and commercial facilities across Belgrade.

SUPERIOR CONCEPT
CITY LANDMARK
Skyline Belgrade is a unique residential and business complex that is being built in Kneza Miloša Street and strives to become one of the future symbols of Belgrade. Thanks to the exceptional architectural solution of the renowned studio of architect Ami Moore, we believe that the new contours of high rise towers will enrich the silhouette of Belgrade, enhancing its appeal in global terms. Skyline Belgrade will comprise three towers: a central business tower and two residential, between which a ‘piazzetta’ will be formed, complemented by a commercial annex containing various service and recreational facilities. The first residents of tower A will be able to take up residency in their new homes as early as year’s end 2019. This complex will also contain many additional facilities, such as a spa & gym zone, featuring the largest private indoor swimming pool in the city, spacious underground parking, 24/7 reception and video surveillance, card access to the facility and professional maintenance. With
AFI Europe.indd 3
the complete rejuvenation of the adjacent Three-keys Park, Skyline Belgrade will fully enrich this entire area, providing a perfect environment for rest and enjoyment. The Skyline Belgrade project is the latest investment in the Serbian capital by company AFI Europe, which is not only very proud of its latest project, but also the fact that it represents the company’s continuous investment in the Serbian market since 2005, beginning with the launch of the construction of Airport City Belgrade and continuing with residential projects like Central Garden. Upon completion, this latest project will encompass 100,000m² of the most attractive residential premises in the city, situated in a wonderful example of highrise architecture. Residents in the first phase are expected to be welcomed by the end of 2019. The Exclusive Sales Representative of Skyline Belgrade is CBS International, part of the Cushman & Wakefield Group, a leading real estate consultancy in Serbia.

M
auritius has experienced a significant boom within its real estate sector over the last decade or so which has resulted in a wide range of residential projects throughout the island. The Government embarked on an adjustment programme since the turn of the millennium to attract the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) required for sustained development and growth. The Integrated Resort Scheme was launched in 2001, the Real Estate Scheme followed in 2007, the Property Development Scheme in 2015 and finally the Smart City Scheme in 2016. Bénédicte Duvivier, real estate consultant for Fine & Country Mauritius, believes that through the establishment of these different schemes, Mauritius has become an investment paradise for foreigners. Indeed, through the acquisition of real estate in Mauritius of a value greater than $500,000 (with respect to the Smart City or Property Development schemes), an investor purchasing an apartment or a villa in Mauritius will be able to keep their residency permit if they remain the owner of the property. If the property is bought by several people, by name or through a company, only one investor will be able to receive the residency permit attached to the property. The investor’s partner as well as his or her children aged below 18 will also benefit from the permit. Moreover, the real estate sector is particularly attractive due to the absence of any capital gains, estate or inheritance tax. With a surprising combination of fiscal and non-fiscal incentives, a hybrid legal machine with sound political stability, state-of-the-art infrastructure and a giant multilingual pool of professionals, Mauritius has enticed people from different corners of the world.

This stunning resort has a strong claim to occupying the most scenic spot in Mauritius. It has a colossal view of Le Morne Brabant towering to one side, a sweep of blue lagoon on the other and miles of beach in front
O
ver on the always warm south-west coast of the island, the sunset alone is enough to make a holiday unforgettable, so it’s small wonder that so many travellers choose to make LUX* Le Morne their Indian Ocean home. Couples and honeymooners come for the jaw-dropping romance of the scenery; families take advantage of five swimming pools and the all-day kids’ club; serenity seekers make beelines for the LUX* Me spa; and thrillseekers are drawn to the innumerable opportunities for adventure – on land, on the water and beneath the waves. The resort’s 149 luxurious and chalet-style suites all provide lagoon and sea views, but there’s so much more to do here than soak up the scenery. Le Morne is the perfect place to test out watersports skills, offering the best kitesurfng on the island, as well as perfect waters for windsurfing, waterskiing, swimming and snorkelling. And the UNESCO-protected landmark of Le Morne mountain is more than just a ruggedly beautiful backdrop. Guests can hike or bike their way around the peninsula, and those that make it to the mountaintop are rewarded with the most mind-blowing panorama in Mauritius. As well as having on-site tennis and beach volleyball, some of the island’s best golf courses are within easy reach. LUX* Le Morne also has all the facilities you’d expect of a five-star hideaway. Pull up a beanbag and catch a film screening on the beach, wander through tranquil, kaleidoscopically colourful gardens, dine on classic Creole cuisine at the Island Kitchen, authentic Thai at East, or settle down for a meal for two at the ocean’s edge, beneath a canopy of stars. www.luxlemorne.com

S
outh Africa’s economy has come out of recession and things are looking much brighter for home-owners as prices are experiencing a gradual upward trend. Dr Andrew Golding, chief executive of the Pam Golding Property Group, explains, “The generally market-friendly election outcome will in all likelihood create a degree of certainty and stability and go some way towards addressing the issues currently affecting confidence in the South African economy – and as a consequence have a positive effect on the South African residential property market. “Furthermore, as illustrated via the Pam Golding Residential Property Index, since 1994 we have consistently seen an acceleration in house price growth in the months after a general election. While it is fair to say that the postelection environment is likely to be better for the property market generally, a number of specific questions arise, including how the land reform question will play out in terms of policy amendments or variations and also whether or not other market-friendly reforms are introduced.” Dr Golding advises that it is also worth noting that different provinces, regions, cities and sectors perform »

Val de Vie Estate, Capewinelands differently. “For example, Cape Town remains the country’s top-performing market,” he says. “The Mother City is seen as a truly global city with a growing international profile and long-term appeal, while technological innovations such as fibre optic connectivity are placing it on a par with its international counterparts. It is also becoming a hub for corporate accommodation as international bluechip companies have set up office in areas such as the V&A Waterfront. “This is a micro market because of its unique geography with worldclass scenery including mountains and a pristine coastline, plus its location ensures limited availability. Cape Town house prices continued to grow strongly in recent years, even as the rest of the South African housing market cooled in response to the tepid economic growth rate. This was in part due to the semigration trend which saw people move to the Cape. As this trend naturally slowed, this prompted a correction in Cape Town house prices, in turn resulting in buyers seeing value return to this market across all sectors.” Dr Golding also says that Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal were always expected to recover before the Western Cape, as these markets have been well-balanced for several years now, so already reflect current prevailing economic conditions. “Buying opportunities abound in the current market,” he concludes, “with some capitalising on the medium and long-term benefits offered through buying in a new development which includes features such as excellent security, lifestyle, energy-saving and ‘green’ features.”

nce again, our annual search for excellence amongst each region of the world’s developers, architects, interior designers, real estate agents and property
consultants has begun. Starting with Asia Pacific, which is renowned for setting an exceedingly high benchmark across all categories, the International Property Awards’ judging panel
2019-2020
is expecting to be faced with some difficult decisions during the year.
There have been several multiple-award winning projects including The One Sky Villa by Nanjing AoYi which has won an impressive eight accolades. The development in Nanjing, China has an entirely people-oriented and green building concept and features state-ofthe-art technology throughout. The Riviera Group has succeeded in winning a total of 12 awards – six for both Riviera Jomtien and Riviera Monaco. The projects are exquisitely designed high-rise developments located in Thailand with superb lifestyle facilities. A further six awards went to UNO by Bridgehill in Sydney, Australia. This high-rise project inspires community spirit by incorporating the traditional courtyard pavilion concept in a modern way. The highest scoring Asia Pacific entrants will now compete against other equally successful companies from Europe, the UK, Africa, Canada, the USA, Central and South America, the Caribbean and Arabia to determine the World’s Best in each category. This year’s grand final will be held on December 2nd at the Savoy Hotel in London where we will reveal the ultimate winners. Visit www.propertyawards.net for further information. Many congratulations to all winning companies listed in this publication.

of the world’s leading architecture and design practices, specialising in design solutions tailored to the needs of cities and communities around the globe. The company has been phenomenally successful by achieving an impressive 14 awards. Pulsa is a residential development of eight individual houses in the region’s most spectacular Repulse Bay on Hong Kong Island. Hence, symbolically, the design is based on ribbon which is analogous to the movement of a wave. Practically, the ribbons respond to the spatial requirement of different functions inside the buildings and create an architecture with a changing profile for different perspectives. By the diffraction and reflection of the curves, residents are always surrounded by the adjoining natural beauty. Hefei Galaxy Park is an experience-oriented retail centre in China with a design that embraces a metaphor of the cultural backdrop of Anhui Province. The Yellow Mountain is the province’s most popular tourist destination due
to its picturesque scenery of sunsets, rocks, hot springs and views of clouds below. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the mountain and its terrain have been translated by Aedas into the shopping centre’s two dynamic outlines and layered volumes. Vertical greenery cascades down from roof gardens to outdoor terraces creating an attractive urban oasis. Tianshan Gate of the World in China is a large scale, mixed-use project in Shijiazhuang’s new development zone. Plot 27, Phase II features a 450-metre high International Finance Centre with Grade A offices, serviced apartments, a five-star hotel, restaurants, a sky club with infinity pool and an observatory spiral flying deck at the summit. The art of Yan-Zhao, which is the beauty of the curved form of Chinese zither, has been integrated within the tower’s design. By expressing the spiritual elements of flowing, dancing sleeves and instruments’ strings, a rhythmic beauty is formed. Taichung Commercial Bank Headquarters, Taiwan is a 210-metre high tower. It combines

the bank’s business hall, commercial office space, a hotel and supporting facilities. The client envisioned an iconic landmark which could represent the bank’s economic gesture in the Taichung development area. As well as isolating each function’s use separately, the hotel client wished to add some entertainment facilities. These included a high-rise rooftop club, outdoor swimming pool and a cantilevered ballroom, all within the tower. These requirements represented the greatest challenges in the project’s design solutions. Aedas devised four different design concepts before deciding on the one that took its origins from the Chinese character ‘Chung’, based on the Taichung Commercial Bank’s logo. Instead of stacking all the building’s large functions such as the ballroom and pool in a singular tower, the design creates two separate blocks with a vertical void in the middle of the building to accommodate facilities. Suzhou Hong Leong City Center is a mixed-use development in China with
Suzhou Chiway Jinji Lake Project, Suzhou, China
unobstructed views of the Jinji Lake. Its design seeks to harmonise with Suzhou’s breathtaking landscape. After adhering to planning restrictions, the development’s commercial podium and four towers are reminiscent of Suzhou’s famous terraced tea plantations. The design is both accessible and porous, evoking the feeling that one could walk into, on, over and under it. A plethora of functions along the periphery of the building will also attract those from the local and global community. Suzhou Chiway Jinji Lake Project is a mixed-use development in the heart of the Jinji lake district in China. It consists of two site parcels that are to be developed in conjunction with one another. The aim is to provide a new tourist destination for travellers and local families to enjoy the iconic Jinji Lake view and set a precedent for the integrated hotel/leisure and commercial mixed-use project in Suzhou. The client stipulated several key objectives in the brief – to provide an open and cultural entertainment area, with a trendy retail and

F&B mall, whilst incorporating a luxury lakeside boutique hotel and a residential complex in the form of an iconic landmark to supplement the previous and now outdated Jinji Lake Ferris Wheel development. Aedas was commissioned to master-plan the two sites and lakeside park, then further develop their commercial components. This resulted in a masterplan that was designed to resemble the historical depiction of the golden phoenix – a composition that offers the design flexibility to achieve all the principle objectives set out by the client. Zhuhai Hengqin CRCC Plaza is located on Hengqin Island, Zhuhai, China. Facing Macao, this area is becoming an increasingly open and creative city development zone. Based on the client’s corporate culture, the China Railway Construction Corporation (CRCC), and the city, Aedas created an architectural design giving maximum consideration to both people and nature. With this in mind, the mixed-use development creates a loop in the sky which symbolises integration, connection and communication. It features a signature
Changsha Jinmao Tower, Changsha, China
sky bridge that links all four towers within the project and offers office, retail and leisure facilities as well as outdoor terraces. Zhuhai Hengqin Headquarters Complex Project & Zhuhai Hengqin Mixed-Use Project is in a prime area on Hengqin Island in Zhuhai, China. The former’s design stems from the Chinese myth of a totem of two dragons chasing a pearl, symbolising people looking for better lives. The towers portray a sense of strength and power, while the banqueting building below looks like an exquisite pearl. The podium design then echoes the nearby Lotus Bridge, resembling a blooming lotus flower with its leaves wrapping around the shopping centre. The design concept for Zhuhai Hengqin Mixed-Use Project is inspired by the elegant cruising movement of a Dragon Fish. The contour of the streamlined tower and dynamic physique of the fish not only enriches the city skyline but also fulfils all functional and planning requirements. Changsha Jinmao Tower in China is a commercial high-rise development. Its design

concept is based on the famous rock mountain scenery of Hunan. The volume of the retail podium resembles the formality of the tower and also takes inspiration from the historic Changsha commercial street. Its intimate human scale and playful architectural elements pay tribute to the traditional Changsha culture. With this project, Aedas has taken both the area’s natural and historical references and deliberately interpreted them into the language of modern architecture. Alacarte Condotel Ha Long Bay is a new development in Vietnam that is designed to be iconic whilst still relating closely to the rich natural landscape of the UNESCO heritage site that surrounds it. The majority of units have been positioned to benefit from a sea view with the remainder having a mountain and bay aspect. A seamless vertical wave has also been created by shifting the flat apex perpendicular to the plane of the façade, forming an iconic appearance to the condotel. Hotel Indigo Hongqiao in Shanghai, China has a design concept inspired by the form of
SCE Hong Qiao Times Square, Shanghai, China
Indigo’s logo – a shell. The front of its podium has also been designed in a spiral form with vertical and diagonal mullions. This creates a sense of arrival and attracts guests to enter. Progressing through the landscaped courtyard, they find themselves exploring and enjoying a wealth of shell and ocean features. Soft forms with up-lit trees and reflective pools provide a relaxed ambience, providing a welcoming oasis from the busy city. SCE Hong Qiao Times Square in Shanghai, China aims to build an entrepreneurial community that promotes communication and high efficiency. By using the grid pattern it forms a central green space offering the city a communal park. Secondly, independent building blocks provide each enterprise with its own headquarters and distinctive façade. Small courtyards are formed by these building blocks which imitate the concept of traditional Shanghai lanes. These long, narrow spaces create a neighbourhood atmosphere, encouraging communication between the various enterprises, while roof terraces capture premium city views.

K. WAH International Holdings Limited (KWIH) engages in property development and investment activities in Hong Kong, Mainland China, Singapore and other parts of the world. Its property portfolio comprises residential developments, office towers, hotels, serviced apartments, and retail complexes. KWIH has won three awards for Solaria, one of the first residential projects to launch in Pak Shek Kok. This exciting new development area comprising of mid-density low-rise buildings is in the Tai Po district of Hong Kong. Solaria offers a total of 1,122 units across nine towers, with a mix of studios to fourbedroom units and a limited number of special residences, such as garden units and duplexes. Solaria is positioned as a vibrant residential development targeted at young professionals
and growing families. The property sits adjacent to the Hong Kong Science and Technology Park, Hong Kong’s largest tech incubator, as well as the Chinese University of Hong Kong, one of Asia’s premier tertiary institutions. The tagline ‘Inspiration Next’, a brand extension under the developer, alludes to the surrounding technology hub, educational institutions, as well as the clubhouses in the development that enable channels for creativity and collaboration. The clubhouses, Club We and Club Solaria, enhance the living experience for residents in particular, covering a range of indoor and outdoor facilities and an assortment of amenities. Spanning over 3,300m², the clubhouses offer a variety of options for different types of residents: those who are more active can enjoy the 50-metre outdoor

swimming pool, gymnasium, multi-purpose ball court, and bicycle parking; those who are more social can invite their friends to the banquet room and lounge areas; the more creative-minded individuals can explore the 3D printing workspace and hydroponic garden; those with young ones can enjoy the indoor playgrounds for kids and toddlers. Moreover, the clubhouses are specifically designed as standalone structures, both to minimise disturbance to residents and also to maximise the amount of natural light for the double-height interiors. The diverse array of shared spaces cater to the aspirational and collaborative mind-set of those living at Solaria. The development is also attractive for its natural surrounding environment and appealing architectural design. In order to optimise site permeability and ventilation,
the 18 and 19-storey towers are arranged in a U-shape and separated by seven-metre wide ventilation corridors; this arrangement of the towers enhances environmental quality at ground level and mitigates the urban heat island effect. The orientation of the residential towers not only maximises for harbour and greenery views but also angles inward-facing apartments for better privacy. Architectural features, such as the perforated aluminium cladding installed on the tower exterior, serve both aesthetic function and functional purpose, namely by mitigating noise from the nearby highway. In the midst of the lush surroundings and neighbourhood of innovation, Solaria stands as a compelling abode for the next generation of talent in Hong Kong.

Altus Hospitality

H, wholly owned division of Altus Capital, has won awards for the architecture of both the hotel and multiple residences within Mactan Beach Resort & Condominium in the Philippines. The developer’s main goal is to renovate an existing condominium building with 210 keys into a full-service resort with 300 guest rooms as well as new buildings and six villas. As the site is a long, confined plot of land, it has a very narrow opening towards the sea. Therefore, in order to emphasise the sea view, Altus decided to frame the scenery with the existing axis of the main building and visually connect the architecture towards the oceanfront. Newly constructed, four-storey
buildings are located along the site’s border, leaving the central area free for landscape and water features and forming a private haven for guests. Guests are led from the hotel lobby and its reflecting pool, through the courtyard with its waterfall, via the swimming pool to the infinite sea beyond. The business centre, all day dining restaurant, bar and fitness facilities are all located in the newly renovated main building. This connects directly to the new 500m² ballroom building, while other highlights include a spa and two speciality restaurants, one beside the pool which doubles up as a bar and leisure area while the other floats in the sea at the resort’s pier.

S, Australia, Bridgehill Group is an internationally accredited five-star property developer known for its innovative approach to apartment design. Each year the company is recognised for its contribution to residential property development and this year with no exception, Bridgehill has won a total of six awards for its UNO by Bridgehill project. Located in the new suburb of Green Square in the heart of Sydney, the winning project is the result of collaboration between Bridgehill development team and SJB. Bridgehill’s ‘Beyond Development’ philosophy means more than just exceptional apartments. It gives the company a license to search for new creative ways to innovate and provide an added value to its clients and wider community. UNO by Bridgehill is more than just another multi-storey residential development. For Bridgehill it is an opportunity to improve and change how people perceive and ultimately experience high rise living. Following the success of ‘Elevated Streets’, with UNO by Bridgehill introduces a new
concept of ‘Courtyard Pavilion’. This idea has been inspired by the 1,000-year old typology of a courtyard house, which has links to both Eastern and Western cultures. In both cultures, the courtyard was used as the hearth of the home and it functioned as a place for social bonding and interaction. Today Bridgehill revisits this ancient building type and gives it a new purpose. The Courtyard Pavilion is a modern interpretation of a courtyard house and its family dynamic. In UNO the Courtyard Pavilion function is to inspire community spirit, like a stage ready to be activated by the residents. Within UNO it is a place where traditional concepts meet modern ambitions, where modern urban living is enriched by the residents and the bond they form with the place which they call home. The design of the Courtyard Pavilion provides an intimate space formed by three individual residential buildings, all of which present their balconies towards the space. It is crowned with a courtyard arbour, an architectural element which provides added

level of privacy, interest and intimacy to the space. The space is located on the ground level and connected to the outside public domain through three separate pedestrian links between three UNO buildings. The development provides added quality with a ground level retail/commercial component with active frontages to surrounding streets. The Courtyard Pavilion is a very generous communal gesture. It complements a total of 328 apartments spread across the three separate buildings. Overall, the project offers a mix of studio, one, two and three-bedroom plus dual-level options. All apartments include generous private open space in the form of balconies or private courtyards. Landscape design is a signature element of UNO as Bridgehill realises that good landscaping together with buildings operate as an integrated and sustainable system, resulting in greater aesthetic quality and amenity for both occupants and the wider community. The award-winning UNO apartment featured here is a ground floor, three-bedroom,
dual-key unit. It has direct access to the courtyard pavilion expending already generous private open space beyond its boundary. This design makes the apartment an excellent alternative to the Australian dream of owning a traditional home with a backyard. The dual-key apartment is an attractive option for investors offering flexible rental scenarios or for an ‘empty nester’ wishing to capitalise on their home’s value and to move to a comparable living option but with less maintenance required. The owner can choose to sub-let part of the apartment (either one-bed or two-bed) or occupy the entire three-bed plus. The overall design of UNO is another milestone in Bridgehill’s quest to create a new benchmark for urban living. Each year ‘Beyond Development’ is redefined to enable Bridgehill projects to evolve in response to ever growing ambitions to create healthy and sustainable living environments. UNO site is the first of four acquired by Bridgehill in the Green Square precinct and it is anticipated that 61,000 people will live within the vicinity by 2030.

K L a leading real estate investment and development company based in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It specialises in high-end real estate developments in three key sectors: residential, hospitality and offices. The company’s project The Galleria Residences, which is the first phase of The Metropole Thu Thiem development, has been successful in winning awards across two different categories. Located in a prime position along the Saigon River across from the historic and business district of Ho Chi Minh City, the project’s masterplan maximises the view from every apartment. This has resulted in more than 90% of units featuring open vistas of the river, District 1 or internal landscaping. The Galleria Residences takes the artful spirit of the nearby Convention Center and Opera House and translates it into modern,
artistic design. Its three towers are named after well-known art museums from around the world: Hermitage, Louvre and Prado, which define the concept of each tower’s interior design. Both the grand public and private lobbies will be adorned with famous art collections, making residents’ way home a fascinating artistic journey every day. Providing one of the most exclusive communities in town, The Galleria Residences has fewer than 100 units per tower and private lifts to its penthouses and premium apartments. Penthouses and loft condos are designed with five metre-high ceilings and modular flooring that allows the space to be enlarged as necessary. Premium units such as the four-bedroom apartment and penthouse also offer a living room that can be opened to connect both indoor and outdoor spaces, creating a huge living area and a strong sense

of spacious luxury. Folding doors have been added to offer stylish entrances and offer benefits during the changing seasons. Doubleglazed windows in the apartments also help to provide better insulation from the heat. The development’s residential high-rise architecture is simple, yet impactful, allowing all three towers to come together harmoniously via a centralised, elevated deck. Both the linearity and minimum distances of 25 metres between blocks have been adhered to as stipulated by the master planning guidelines. At ground level, lushly planted landscaped squares act as a buffer between the commercial street and the internal residential courtyards. The façade is an elegant take on the imagery of river rocks. Both textured and reflective, it resembles the ever-changing movement of the river and sky as if having a continuing dialogue. Natural airflow is provided to common
corridors via opening slots in the façade’s massing. Towers are orientated generally long side in a North-South direction, passively preventing the heating of units by direct sunlight penetration in the East-West direction. By tilting each individual unit, the sightlines towards the Saigon River have also been further improved. A range of extensive wellness amenities has been specifically designed for residents’ physical and mental health. These include a sculpture garden, infinity river-view lap pool, an outdoor Jacuzzi, floating massage pavilion, sunbathing deck, kids’ water park, outdoor playground, barbecue garden and pool-side gymnasium. Showing meticulous attention to quality and detail, SonKim Land has carefully chosen each and every element and accessory for The Galleria Residences, from building materials right through to appliance brands, ensuring a premium lifestyle for its residents.

, Tandem Architects (2001) has grown into a firm with extensive experience in a wide range of projects. These include everything from hotels, resorts and condominiums to residential developments, office buildings, retail units and private residences. The Symphony is Tandem’s award-winning mixed-use development on Bangsaen beach, Chonburi in Thailand. It consists of six highrise residential towers, a boutique hotel and a central sports complex. The client’s brief was to create an exceptional project where both the architecture and business model resulted in the most optimum outcome. The overall project was also to form its own community and connections yet still provide ample individual, personal spaces for residents and guests.
Villages of small compact buildings are the key master plan design within this project. This changes the way typical sports complexes and retail units are contained in big ‘boxes’. Instead, The Symphony breaks down the masses to enable open-air ventilation to flow through the development and thus reduce energy consumption. Sports facilities are strategically integrated with retail elements and ballrooms by elevating them to the second and third floors where users can enjoy the fabulous sea views. With over 140,000m² of land, a major design challenge was how to connect each function without sacrificing any benefits. Tandem’s solution was to provide several layers of connections including bridges on the first and second floors and semi-outdoor paths at ground level.

50 years ago, UOL Group is one of Singapore’s leading property companies with an extensive portfolio of development and investment properties, hotels and serviced suites. The company has won five awards across four of its latest projects, all of which are located in Singapore. Avenue South Residence is a 1,074-unit development jointly developed by UOL Group, United Industrial Corporation and Kheng Leong Company. It is located within close proximity to the future Greater Southern Waterfront, slated to become the new Central Business District in Singapore. The development comprises of five low-rise heritage buildings and two 56-storey high towers. Designed to capitalise on expansive views of the scenic future waterfront, the modern towers are elevated on a podium. Having only two tower blocks also frees the ground for multiple pools and lush landscaping. Celebrating the development’s site along the
Rail Corridor – a 24km long urban nature trail, amenities were curated to enhance the spirit of adventure. The growth potential of Avenue South Residence, together with its unique siting along a nature trail provides exciting possibilities for future city living. The Tre Ver, by UOL Group and United Industrial Corporation, comprises 729 residential units across five towers and four low-rise blocks above a two-storey carpark. It is a redevelopment from a previous housing estate located along the prime waterfront of Kallang River with 12 lush and mature raintrees along the river front. Taking cues from the verdant surroundings, the development was designed to create a distinctive waterfront living that engages with the river and natural settings through a series of tiered planters, cascades and waterfalls. In addition to living amidst lush greenery, three distinct amenity layers are provided for – Raintree Deck, Club Terrace and Sky Terrace.

The Raintree Deck, a multi-functional open-air space designed around the trees, strings together a series of play, exercise, rest and gathering spaces along the waterfront; the Club Terrace, a series of three water courtyards with pools, jacuzzi, children water play and sculptural water features; the Sky Terrace, an elevated village environment for engaging in diverse activities. Amber45 developed by UOL Group, is a residential high-rise condominium on a site which was formerly used as a plant nursery. Despite a relatively compact site of 6,500m², a total of 139 units in a 21-storey tower was envisioned as a boutique property with a full range of amenities including a 50-metre lap pool, tennis court, clubhouse and gym. Complementing the atmosphere of opulence and tranquillity, the landscape was designed to evoke a sense of a resort-like urban retreat. A series of intimate pavilions differing in scale and materials create a rich sensory experience as one moves through the development.
MeyerHouse, Singapore
MeyerHouse is a joint project between UOL Group and Kheng Leong Company, envisioned as a luxurious 56-unit residential development on a one-hectare plot surrounded by landed housing estates on three sides. The development is configured as a ‘C’ shape with apartments on the site’s outer perimeter and main living areas orientated to extensive internal gardens. Conceptualised as ‘landed housing apartments’, each unit is designed as large format premium housing akin to landed homes in Singapore with individual private lift lobbies and direct personal lift access to upper level units. Typical units feature 12m long living areas with large windows overlooking the internal garden. Duplex penthouses open out to private roof gardens, expanding the living experience and views beyond the lush site. Besides the privilege of privacy and space, the development presents residents the convenience of shared facilities in an exclusive location.

Inspired by the concept of a superyacht in sail, The Pavilia Bay has a contemporary curtain wall design, sleek outline and an avantgarde façade. The visual connection between the podium and nearby users at the promenade has also been enhanced through the use of parapets for level differences instead of solid fence walls. The majority of apartments have optimal sea views and residents have the benefit of a wide

Landmark Riverside Danzishi Old Street in Hong Kong is a comprehensive cultural commercial experience that bridges the old and new, the oriental and western. Officially classed as an AAAA Class national scenic area, the site’s history has been retained in this new development. Complementing the existing traditional elements, new buildings have adopted a modern Chinese architectural style. Framed viewing windows and patterned grids and screens were installed to direct the line of vision in order to appreciate the picturesque scenery. The traditional blue brick tiles have been renewed with the addition of modern materials, while classical patterns are reiterated as contemporary geometric shapes.

variety that exists in the project. However, more importantly, it revealed the central axis of the development – Danzishi Old Street. Olympic Vanke Centre is in an ideal location in the future CBD of Hangzhou, China and next to its 2022 Asian games Village. On completion, it will provide 100,000m² of commercial area comprised of two office towers, a shared podium of amenities, F&Bs and an underground service area. The main architectural feature is an elevated bridging mass of amenities which ties the two towers as a whole from levels three to six. Elevated from street level, it allows free movement of pedestrians, air and sunlight – all of which are considered as essential ingredients for a vibrant, semi-outdoor public domain. The convergence of the two towers at the lifted podium is then highlighted by the continuous deep-setting spandrel fins. These portray sharp shadows dramatised by the changing angle of the sun relative to the spiralling building form.
Zhengding Shijiazhuang Hotel
Zhengding Shijiazhuang Hotel takes reference from the adjacent Zhengding Old City and subtly incorporates its architectural themes into the façade, such as the pitched roof extending into the guestrooms’ interiors. The hotel’s towers offer 200 guest rooms while the low-rise resort complex provides 60 executive villas, a grand ballroom, boutique tea house, meeting rooms and speciality restaurants. Situated in the north and orientated from north to south, the towers are orthogonally arranged along the central axis. Typical floors feature a single loaded corridor configuration to maximise the river view for all suites The resort villas placed to the south feature a contemporary interpretation of a typical Chinese courtyard house in their layout. A distinctive covered walkway connects the villa clusters throughout the complex, while double-storey courtyard villas shift and stagger to create pocket space and inner landscaped courtyards.

I one of the leading design studios in the Asia Pacific region. Helmed by partners Nikki Hunt and Andrea Savage, the company’s work has garnered an international reputation for attention to detail, quality and creativity, winning numerous awards including the five latest accolades featured here. The property 19 Ringwood Road in Singapore belongs to a single mother with a teenage daughter and seven-year-old son. She wanted Design Intervention to build her a home that would grow with the family and provide a sanctuary and feeling of permanence. The design has been inspired by the client’s preference for modern neo-classical architecture and contemporary ranch style. However, the greatest influencing factor was the incorporation of the existing 1950’s art deco home which had become badly dilapidated. By adapting elements from these two styles, a successful fusion with the original property has been achieved.
With a penchant for cooking, the client wanted the kitchen at Ringwood to be spacious, uncluttered and dramatic. The open plan space flows seamlessly from the rest of the house with clean lines complemented by glamorous elements for a luxurious ambience. A key part of the brief was to create a light, airy aesthetic as the kitchen has no windows. Achieving this goal, the space feels welcoming for the children while meeting the demands of a professional chef when required for frequent entertaining. The Arthouse Penthouse in Singapore is home to a well-travelled, cosmopolitan couple approaching retirement. They wanted a home with a warm and welcoming vibe, free from ostentation that resonated with homely comfort rather than ‘haute design’. Both avid collectors of paintings, wine and objet d’art, Design Intervention has succeeded in integrating the couple’s collections seamlessly into their new home avoiding any showy displays.

The apartment is modern, timeless and equipped with all the comforts a home should possess combined with that essential spark of intrigue and excitement. The clients’ brief for A Mid-Century Revival in Perth, Australia, was to imbue the family home with colour and warmth.

As blue proved the dominant colour in their artworks, they wished to weave this colour into the design. Incorporating a space and bar was of utmost importance as the enjoy entertaining and also host many business-related events at their home. Throughout the house, large sliding doors dispel the barrier between the interior and exterior and invite the outdoors inside. Mid-century motifs were featured in the
A Mid-Century Revival
design to add drama and inject vibrant colour whilst still achieving a crisp visual appeal and facilitating a seamless transition between the indoors and outdoors. Twelve Cupcakes is a Singaporean brand with a steady stream of shops around the City State. Its new retail store at Universal Studios Resorts World on Sentosa Island was to become the flagship outlet. The shopfront was not just for food but also to showcase the brand to an international audience as a springboard for expansion. The biggest challenge overcome by the design was accommodating the multitude of kitchen equipment, storage and display units as well as seating and serving patrons in just 378 square feet. Existing brick columns on the façade have been clad in a fun, bold graphic decal. This doubles as a pictorial menu and clearly conveys the message that ‘Twelve Cupcakes’ serves up far more than small cakes. A strong, geometric, asymmetric black and white pattern then flanks the clear glass doors.

Following an Asia Pacific 2018 Award win last year, the design and build firm pulls a hat trick of wins this year, adding to an impressive list of recognitions for its industry-leading workplace design. Two of the award wins are workplace designs for prominent global firms, which affirms the fast-growing Singapore firm’s position at the forefront of workplace design in the APAC region. The third is awarded to the design of ID21’s own office, a compelling example of the firm’s creativity and testament to its vision of transforming spaces that bring out the best in people.
When ID21 decided to move to a duplex unit in the same office block, it was a conscious decision to raise the game on the company’s line of expertise: creating inspirational interiors that set the trends in workplace design. As design and build specialists with a strong team of in-house designers and project managers as well as engineering and construction experts, ID21 relished the challenge to reinvent and push the boundaries in designing and executing a visionary space that the team would be proud to call home. The challenge of this new space was to be radically different from ID21’s former premises, but the loftier, double-volume unit also presented an opportunity to give staff more generous and inspiring premises. The result is a grand departure from the bright, predominantly white scheme of the previous

office, a dimly-lit and curiously different space invites visitors to explore the space and, in turn, the company’s work. The entrance has a discreet logo which has been laser cut and folded in light relief, alluding to the origami concept seen in ID21’s branding. From the outside, a heavy sliding door in oxidised copper gives away little of what lies beyond. This element of surprise continues around every turn, heightened by the distinct experience of each area. The concept of the design contrasts was developed to create an inspiring and energising workspace. A rainforest-themed reception evokes tranquillity as visitors enter, before turning the corner to face a bright and vibrant office which stimulates the senses. In order to accommodate staff growth, the previous open-plan environment had to be
reconsidered to maintain the ideal balance of social interaction, collaboration and individual concentration. One industrial-themed section featuring an oversized neon sign bearing the playfully adapted slogan ‘Keep Calm & Rock On’ banishes workplace monotony and enhances team spirits, whilst another area evokes serenity with lush greenery built into the storage features. It’s a powerful example of ID21’s commitment to unlocking, nurturing and empowering the people in the spaces the company designs. From productivity, wellbeing to collaboration, the diverse needs of the company are able to converge seamlessly in a creative environment, whilst bringing out the firm’s core values of Accountability; Service; People First; Innovation; Respect; and Excellence.

UDC re and interior design studio which has won an award for its project Lounge Grandeur, located in Taoyuan, Taiwan. Its interiors have been designed to be a perfect example of a highly luxurious and welcoming environment. On entering the main building, the grand reception hall is designed as an oval hub which leads residents and visitors into four different domains of the lounge. Within these spaces, residents can freely study, work-out or simply relax with friends. This transitional space with sunlight flowing through open glass walls features visuals of round objects, line grills and hanging conceptual adornments. At every corner there is a different function, namely a
dining room, lounge bar, library and gym with swimming pool. Each individual space has been visually designed for its use and features a different, intriguing character. The pool and gym area has a ceiling, tables and benches made of wood with stone walls in a contrasting, dark hue. In the lounge bar, metal filters by the window in a floral design enrich the natural lighting and also give the space a subtler ambience. GUDC’s main approach to the design has been the interaction between free lines, harmonious shapes and layers of ceilings. The overall look is both dazzling and eye-catching, creating a public space which defines the senses and tastes of the users while also providing the required functions for a unique lifestyle.

KEY OPERATION INC. / ARCHITECTS
T G by Tohshin Partners Co., Ltd. and Key Operation Inc. /Architects is a double awardwining residential project located near Togoshi Ginza shopping centre in Japan. The nine-storey building is on a 500m² plot within a low-rise residential and high-rise commercial district. As it stands out as being higher than the surrounding residences, Zoom Togoshi Ginza features visually enhanced horizontal slabs to mitigate the verticality of the project’s volume. The third, fourth and fifth floors are also recessed to control the effects of sunshading. The building’s balustrades are formed by suitably angled vertical flat bars which aid residents’ privacy through blocking the
view from the street. They also serve to hide the external air-conditioning units on the apartments’ balconies. The allocation of the balustrades defines both the open and closed appearance of the building and create a façade that is ever-changing. The apartments’ interiors are light and airy in their design and layout. Larger rooms feature a careful balance of light and dark teak to give a premium feel, while smaller rooms have light and grey teak wood to make them appear more spacious. A full range of security systems such as auto-locks, CCTV cameras and crime-prevention sensors ensure peace of mind for residents around the clock.

M
A, a real estate development company recently established in Bangalore, India by experienced industry professionals, is developing its flagship ‘Grade A’ business park, North Gate, a Special Economic Zone. Located in the new, up-and-coming business corridor of North Bangalore, Phase 1 of the development is the first of the two buildings on a 5.75-acre land parcel. North Gate Phase 1 will have a total built-up area of 1.65 million square feet with high standards of infrastructure designed for multi-tenant occupancy across two wings, each with 12 floors, a six-floor multi-level carpark and three basements. The project, which has already received an USGBC LEED Gold pre-certification, aims to create workspaces for the future that will cater to the demands of multinational IT/ITeS companies operating from Bangalore.
2019-2020
Factors such as occupancy, functionality, safety and sustainability have been considered along with the individual needs of different clients. The building also had to retain the elements of a serene and stress-free environment. It therefore has amenities for interaction and relaxation, such as cafés, a library and spaces for art and performance, amidst a mass of greenery. The building’s architecture had to blend in with its environment, so the surrounding landscape and views became an integral part of its design. Lush landscaping and water bodies evoke a sense of well-being around the building and create a welcoming, stressfree environment. The void between the two buildings has been designed to become a place where two communities are able to overlap.

North Gate Phase 2
North Gate Phase 2 located adjacent to the existing Phase 1 development will contribute to the neighbourhood’s growing potential, providing an innovative space for commerce and collaboration. Ease of access, both from the outside and inside, was an important consideration as was enabling maximum flexibility for those who use the building to design the workspaces they need. Modern Asset also wanted to foster a positive employee experience by allowing room for interaction with other people, the arts and nature. To remain consistent with the aesthetics and architectural style of Phase 1, the two-wing building follows a clean and simple form, while the inside of the core service areas is surrounded by open and unhindered spaces. Sweeping views of the surrounding landscape and ample natural daylight not only enhance
productivity but also give a true sense of wellbeing. This important aspect has been achieved by high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows. Overall, the building’s modular plan creates a highly efficient interior environment with clearspan floor plates that maintain flexibility and adaptability across every level of the structure. The façade features high-performance glass that integrates with indoor controls to enhance North Gate Phase 2’s energy and light transmission performance. A double-height lobby includes publicly accessible open space that flows into the covered outdoor plaza, generous landscaping, arrival courtyards and a food court. The detailing and form emphasise simplicity, with large, rhythmic windows and tall ceilings. The stunning result is a unified experience that is rarely seen in office architectural design.

international design studio with award-winning experience in architecture, interiors and masterplanning. Developed by Shangri-La Group and designed by Lead8, Fuzhou ShangriLa Mixed-Use Development overlooks the famous Wuyi Square. The project comprises a smart transformation and expansion of an existing high-end hotel built in 2005 from a single-purpose building to a reconfiguration of the land and function of the site. The design brief called for a substantial development that could influence and add to the district’s cultural and social life. By combining a luxury hotel with business, retail, dining and entertainment, a unique and engaging urban destination will be created. As a commercial development, the client also placed emphasis on ensuring that it should be
2019-2020
commercially viable; bringing value and new opportunities to the wider neighbourhood. Lead8’s design incorporates ‘Old meets New’ architectural concepts, adapting its design language from the traditional Tulou or roundhouse, the nearby Qing Dynasty White Pagoda and traditional city gates. Inspired by the rich architectural history and unique visual culture of Fujian province, a variety of façade textures and scales are combined into a collage with bold and intricate detailing. The project adheres to modern mixed-use design principles with boundary-free spaces which allow for the seamless movement of people enabling them to explore various landmarks of the development. Equally important was the integration of greenery, both within the architecture as well as the interior design. Ample public spaces and points

of access from all directions and multiple levels fill every corner with a rich mixture of experiential dialogues between the users of the office, hotel, residential and retail clusters in the wider mixed-use development. The existing hotel is rejuvenated and fashioned in every respect of its décor and design detail to express the Shangri-La values of ‘hospitality from the heart’. On arrival, a reflective pond in the courtyard provides a calming atmosphere for the VIP guests as well as filling the premium hotel lobby lounge with an abundance of natural daylight. Phase 1 involves the extensive renovation of the existing hotel to match the new components to be constructed in Phase 2. These new components are extensions to the existing hotel and will consist of a fivelevel retail podium with offices above. The
office tower provides two levels of co-sharing workspace, 13 floors of Grade A offices and two upper levels of premium offices. Green design principles and energy saving elements are incorporated across the design with the aim of minimising building energy consumption. The design makes sustainable choices in the selection of materials, benefitting rather than harming the environment. Reclaimed stone is used for the interior flooring, while environmentally preferable products have been selected for the façade and interior finishes. Wherever possible and appropriate, the design has taken into consideration the use of locally sourced stone and building materials. Scheduled to complete in 2022, Fuzhou Shangri-La Mixed-Use Development will become a vibrant urban lifestyle destination for both local people and international tourists.

The company delivers architecture, design and planning services around the world and has won two awards for its project The General. The development was built as a tribute to Chahid’s late father, who was commonly known as ‘The General’, on the site where he established his first butchery business. This residential development is located within the thriving Northcote area of Melbourne, close to all manner of local amenities. Entry into this suburb is becoming less affordable for those seeking to make the community and culture their new home and The General is the first of its kind and size in the area to offer a positive solution. Each apartment is purposefully designed to offer the market a

floorplan that is comparable in size to family homes yet at an affordable price point. A stunning, eye-catching façade greets you on arrival at this modern building, which also consists of restaurants, retail stores and offices located over the first two floors. This aspect encourages local business, as well as upholding the urban integrity of the Northcote area by continuing the strip-shop aesthetic at street level. Its striking entrance then features large bluestone tiles, flanked by soft LED strip lighting and a large green wall, filling the expansive void to the levels above. Eighty-seven apartments occupy eight floors and consist of one, two and three-bedroom designs. Interiors feature beautiful airy and modern open plan living spaces. Warm oak flooring, neutral colours and a generous balcony area offer a perfect setting for residents to

enhance with their own personal styling. These spacious homes have been designed with a considered and significant sustainable approach. They include the added benefit of additional natural lighting and ventilation, planter boxes on each balcony to provide residents with their own green space and screening for privacy, energy efficient appliances and, in some units, gas fireplaces and recycled water amenities. Furthermore, ample car and bicycle parking is provided in the basement. The client-approved design took advantage of the prominent corner location, as it presented a key design opportunity. The architecture seeks to engage by framing and wrapping the corner in a single feature with a curved secondary faรงade. This is glazed with patterned glass featuring a subtle image of a Victorian general on a horse that can
be illuminated to have a beacon-like effect. Ultimately, the design offers a coordinated approach to public and private interests by combining the community interest into a forward-thinking project. The building has achieved a 7.5-star energy rating by innovating the use of Onyx Solar photovoltaic glass, specifically engineering it to be a functioning balustrade and building fabric. As such, it is the first building in Australia to use the product in this way, and makes a bold statement on what can be achieved with sustainable solutions within the country. A well-equipped fitness facility is located on the top floor, where residents can also enjoy panoramic views of the city. The desire to raise the bar on apartment living and honour a legacy that flourished from humble beginnings has certainly been met within The General.

GA A, Coral Boulevard Development and SL Capital have worked in collaboration to win three awards across two of their latest projects. Coral Boulevard in the Maldives is an integrated development incorporating a retail mall, hotel and a variety of residence types and sizes. Rather than a single mass, it is made up of a series of volumetric towers which rises above an expanded horizontal podium. This podium integrates the streetscape with the development and connects both the pedestrian and vehicular circulation. Hence, the tower avoids any formal complexity but still achieves a memorable massing and silhouette due to its clustering and arrangement of towers. In addition, the
adoption of a ‘coral’ motif as a distinctive lattice feature adds a dimension of spontaneity and playfulness to the building’s façade. The architectural design of 3 Cuscaden in the Orchard district of Singapore breaks down the scale and massing of the tower into interconnected volumes. This avoids the repetitive austerity of conventional tower design and, by creating a new horizontal and vertical configuration, a socially engaging and dynamic environment is formed. The introduction of lush sky courts and terraces offers intimacies within the tower, while the specific articulation of the façade facilitates natural daylight into living spaces, also allowing sweeping views of the city.

By respecting the shared pool of knowledge that its designers, engineers, manufacturers, suppliers and vendors bring to the practice, its overall knowledge increases and team work is encouraged on a multi-disciplinary level. Embassy of the Philippines is AKA’s awardwinning project in Islamabad, Pakistan. It comprises a chancery, ambassador’s residence, recreational area and staff accommodation. The building complex is equipped with amenities such as a cafeteria, basement parking, swimming pool, community area and a library.
The approved design was the culmination of several design workshops between the client and AKA. The result was the incorporation of the client’s work culture in the current context of Islamabad and the architect’s vision of providing users with a taste of their own country. Sustainability was the prime focus of the project and so passive techniques to reduce solar gains have been introduced such as courtyards, huge cantilevers and exclusively underground parking. Inspiration for the architectural design concept was taken from the landscape of the Philippines and its eighth wonder – the Banaue rice terraces. Covering around 4,000 square miles of mountainside they are 5,000 feet above sea level. Therefore, each spine of the building is vertically displaced at random points creating a cascading elevation that is reminiscent of the rice terraces.

Above all of its many outstanding attributes, The One Sky Villa has an entirely peopleoriented building concept and includes state-of-the-art technology throughout. Both its exterior and interior design integrates ecological, intelligent and artistic elements to create a green living zone using energy-
saving and environmentally-friendly building materials and methods. Highlights include vertical greening which has been incorporated into the high-rise architecture; the first floor has a sunken garden to provide natural light and ventilation; and the top floor features a sky courtyard and luxurious swimming pool. The appearance and texture of the project’s façade is enhanced through the use of metal plates and stone which has been perfectly integrated with the vertical greening. Every unit has a fabulous view and, in turn, also provides a beautiful scene to the surrounding properties across the changing seasons. All these important factors have combined to make The One Sky Villa become the top green building environmental protection community in Nanjing.

, Inarc Design Hong Kong is a quality-driven design consultancy specialising in both interiors and architecture. The company has won an impressive five awards for its project ‘The Owners with Kids Box, STRC, The Hong Kong Jockey Club’. Ultimately, the client’s goal was to provide a ‘first of its kind’ dining venue at the racecourse specifically designed for horse owners’ children. The design challenges were both complex and numerous as the existing space had little natural daylight or external views. Hence, throughout the concept, Inarc focused on the suitability of materials, colours, lighting and shapes in order to enhance the overall experience. The new dining venue had to accommodate approximately 200 guests and include an open
as well as a semi-private dining environment, betting facilities, a large buffet area, a fully selfcontained kitchen and access to a new viewing terrace – all within a special child-friendly interior environment. Therefore, the vision for the interior design solution was inspired by the colours and shapes that generally evoke fun with children. Moreover, child-friendly curved shapes were applied to the decorative semiprivacy screens and special lighting fixtures. The kitchen design provides an ‘active’ food experience for patrons and their children with a number of standalone buffet counters and a large glass ‘picture’ window to observe the main food preparation area. Even the bathrooms have been created to exude a ‘magic forest’ appeal for children with onyx stone giving the illusion of height to the walls with its multi-coloured veins.

C in 2004 by two passionate entrepreneurs who recognised that retail designs do not stop at being beautiful. Thus, the company strives to provide result oriented solutions, designing spaces that are attractive, functional and, most importantly, profitable. Jaya Grocer is one of the biggest premium supermarkets in Malaysia with stores designed by VisCreative since its second outlet. This particular award-winning example is located in an upmarket urban neighbourhood with a strong presence of expatriates from Asia, Europe and the Middle East. The client’s brief was to design a flagship store which pushed the boundaries of a luxe premium grocery shopping experience.
Wooden panelling brings a sense of warmth and softness to the space whilst also functioning as a visual guide for customers to highlight the fresh food areas of fruits, meats and seafood. Marble-like floor tiles in a bright beige colour and gloss finishes add a further luxe feel to the space. The bakery area features a marble counter and gold signage to give a sense of French refinement coupled with modern simplicity. A decidedly black finish was used for the wall tiles in the pork and bacon section to indicate to Muslim customers that they had entered a separate zone of the supermarket. Elsewhere brightly lit aisles and wide walkways create a tranquil, comfortable and enjoyable shopping environment.

, Luxe Development is a Brunei-based design practice which has won a trio of awards for the following projects. It was commissioned to transform the facade and interior of a former textile factory into HOOK.ED, a seafood culinary store. Unlike a typical shop, its interior design attempts to influence each customer’s emotions and create a unique retail as well as dining experience. Featuring fresh products as art pieces alongside the streamlining direction of timber partitions and the presence of employees as ‘tour guides’, the space has been designed to embrace the ambience of an art gallery. Avenue 41 is an extension of Luxe’s office and forms a multi-functional space for local aspiring creators, performers and event planners to meet. Its inspiration comes
from the company’s desire to go beyond the boundaries of a traditional showroom. It is both flexible and transformative, featuring a floating table that can be easily raised to the ceiling to provide more floor space with the click of a button. Kota Batu Residence involved the full renovation of an ancestral home for a private client who wished to preserve the essence of the original house while combining a contemporary design. As the owner is an avid collector of artworks, books and antiques, Luxe proposed a gallery kind of living space to display his collections. Another key feature was the revival of an abandoned backyard. A large glazing panel in the newly extended living room connects the indoor space to the patio and the backyard, extending the indoors outside.

D its years of experience and professional vision to create stunning interior design solutions such as Parc Palais in Hong Kong. This award-winning project is an apartment owned by a young couple with different design preferences. The husband studied in Japan and so favours the Japanese style of cosy and simple interiors while his wife prefers Nordic design influences. The common traits of these two styles have therefore been incorporated to meet the couple’s wishes. Natural elements and different shades of grey are used to add interest and create a simple, yet layered visual effect. The floors are then covered in wood grain tiles
featuring geometric shapes which give a nod to both Japanese and Nordic design sensibilities. The wife requested a spacious living/ dining room while the husband is an avid toy collector and so asked for large display cabinets to be included. Int Design positioned the display cabinets in the study room but installed two sliding doors going in opposite directions to allow the husband to view his collection from the living/dining room. This seamless connection between the spaces forms a spacious whole and satisfies both the couple’s requests. Throughout the apartment there is a constant usage of style, colour and decoration that clearly conveys a blend of Japanese and Nordic styles, yet is beautifully unified.

by interior designer Mya Myitzu, M. Interiors and Design is a boutique design firm based in Myanmar. The company’s award-winning project, Yoma Central Sales Gallery, involved the restoration of a heritage villa to transform it into a stunning, branded display area. Yoma Central brand’s prevalent style elements have been infused with traditional Myanmar features, artistic concepts and a touch of modernity. The client stressed that the villa must be both warm and welcoming, like a stately manor house where guests are invited to a champagne afternoon tea. Here they can discover and unlock the treasures of a Yoma Central lifestyle. The Peninsula Residences Yangon show suite lies in
a newly built structure behind the premises to be viewed by invitation only. The brief required an entry hall inspired by the project’s main landmark where The Peninsula Yangon will be residing. This significant heritage building is called ‘Myanma Railways Building’. Mya Myitzu studied the past history of the building as well as its architectural details and incorporated an iron grill detail when reinterpreting the custom wallpaper and carpet design. Influenced by her cultural heritage and the modern art often found inside The Peninsula hotels, she customised all the wall art for the sales gallery personally. The client brief also required a screening room, a dining room for high tea and meetings, an adjacent events room and a private signing room.

Ascent Garden Home is its awardwinning mixed-use project, located near the Saigon River in Hochiminh City. Its various elements include a wide range of commercial units, offices, apartments and services. The design goal was to create a viable, functional, efficient and sustainable development that is not only user-friendly but also environmentally-friendly. An important part of this sustainable design involves controlling the amount of natural daylight flowing into the spaces. Thus, all of the functional spaces have windows and doors for
natural ventilation and lighting to help reduce energy consumption during the daytime. Ascent Garden Home’s two, 21-storey high buildings contain a total of 478 units on a land area of 10,076m². The buildings were specially orientated to offer a selection of river, city and green views. The design has an urban master plan that enhances connectivity, convenience and a sense of place by understanding the social, economic and environmental contexts of the site. Desirable, spacious and flexible apartment layouts were devised which would satisfy the diverse needs of different types of occupants. It was also important to achieve high development value by creating luxurious retail and commercial spaces as well as highstandard units and public facilities.

, PES-Architects is now one of the leading architectural design firms in Finland. It has a diverse and international design team representing over 10 different nations, with over 60 members of staff operating out of its Helsinki office and a further 10 employees in its Shanghai office. The company won an international invited competition organised by the Fuzhou Government to design the Fuzhou Strait Cultural and Arts Centre. Its goal was to strengthen the cultural image of the city and the Mawei New Town development area. The winning design has been inspired by the petals of a jasmine blossom, which is the city flower of Fuzhou. It is manifested in both the formal language and colour of the architecture.
There are five jasmine petal venues – the multifunctional theatre, opera hall, concert hall, art exhibition hall and cinema centre. Each building has a core area – a semi-public, ‘curved gallery’ that follows the curvature of the main façade. These are all linked by a cultural concourse and a large roof terrace which is accessible by two ramps. On the underground level, a ‘shopping river’ commercial street located along the LiangCuo flood river connects the landscape to the interiors. It also provides a functional link to the metro station and the new town centre. Dividing the large complex into smaller units gives the centre a more human scale and makes it easy for users to navigate both indoors and outdoors.

One Hennessy, its award-winning development in Wanchai, is designed in the unusual shape of a funnel. The Grade A commercial project combines appealing retail areas with people-friendly workspaces for corporate tenants in Hong Kong. Its design concept stems from the concept of the flower, Morning Glory. This sculptural design revolves around the idea of a young plant sprouting from the earth and bursting into the sunlight, symbolising an energetic and motivated working environment. The funnellike shape of the 31-storey building means it maximises natural sunlight and wind flow for
better ventilation. Its elegant glass curtainwall also allows daylight into the interiors and minimises energy loss as well as heat absorption. On entering the office lobby, its 8.7 metre high ceiling and tall bamboo plants create an impressive sense of openness and space. One Hennessy provides office accommodation across 21 floors, complemented by 24,500 square feet of retail space and amenities – all for rent.

Royce Residence KLCC is set to create a new landmark for the Golden Triangle with its sleek and modern design. Built around the concept of a precious jewel, its inspiration comes from its rarity, polished surfaces and high demand.

The development has also been designed linearly in order to maximise the view from every corner of every single apartment. Set to raise the bar of inner city living, each
meticulous design process has been conceived to create an ideal home for residents using the latest technologies and adhering to a stringent quality control standard. Crowne Plaza KLCC is adjacent to Royce Residence and utilises the lower section of the building from floors 11 to 33 of the hotel wing. Continuing the jewel theme, the hotel’s design has been inspired by the concept of a jewel in a box. Offering 338 exquisite rooms, guests will enjoy access to a fully equipped business centre, seven versatile meeting spaces for a range of functions and events, a ballroom, sky bar, an executive lounge, several restaurants, a gym, pool and open Jacuzzi. In short, Crowne Plaza is the foresight of the future, built for the city people of today.

T, Poise Corporation has been successful in winning two architectural awards for The Haute Kanchana-sathorn in Bangkok. The key design concept for the five-storey multiple residence development is ‘private oasis’ with a vertical garden being the main characteristic of the façade design. Private pocket gardens with trees are strategically placed vertically to create attractive natural greenery for the building envelope. While the project is designed to maximise both the floor area and the open space of the green area, their spatial relationship creates maximum ventilation and openness in response to the tropical climate without sacrificing privacy. Rooms are not only fully open into internal open spaces, it is also designed to weave throughout the house.
This interwoven correlation of interior space and open space creates the perfect sense of a private oasis. The architectural design for The Haute Kanchana-sathorn’s office building features a well-maximised floor area with garden views for all working areas. Its interior design reflects a modern and luxurious lifestyle with young professionals as the target market. The reception area provides an impressive first impression of the offices with its private garden and terrace. This opulence is continued throughout the main staircase, lift lobby and private lounge, while the meeting room connects both interior and exterior functions. By connecting directly with its two balconies, vital air circulation is provided to combat Bangkok’s tropical heat and offer a pleasant working environment.

A in residential architectural designs reflecting permanence and timelessness, such as its award-winning project, House in Old Holland Road in Singapore. The client’s brief stipulated two important requirements, to provide ample cross ventilation as the house is north-south orientated and to have a design that caters for the lifestyle of the growing family. The inspiration for the house comes from the idea of having an intimate courtyard space where rooms and functional indoor areas centre around it, and with internal circulation inside the house closely connected to external environment via skylights, openings and semisheltered spaces. A key design feature is the incorporation of a semi-circular shaped bridge that floats 2.1 metres above the entrance foyer, characterising a U-turn circulation from the
lift on the second floor, at the same time it creates a sculptural quality of spaces upon entering the house. The architectural concept of the house is simple with two distinctive orthogonal volumes connected by a concrete bridge that is also a corridor that overlooks the pool. The design is envisaged as two lightly pigmented off-form and fair faced concrete boxes pulled apart on the roof and side and yet also connected. The vertical and horizontal planes of the boxes slide into spaces to create intriguing internal spaces that allow circulation and visual connections to cross in a highly fluid manner. The living room beyond the entrance foyer has a 7.9m tall ceiling space, providing a sense of grandeur as seen from the pool deck level, and at the same time, marking it as the most important space in the house.

Everything from its design to its carefully selected range of tenants and amenities makes Downtown Gallery a refreshing new take on Singapore’s retail scene. Oakwood Premier OUE Singapore, an award-winning hotel and serviced residences, is also part of the OUE Downtown complex.

Architect: Atelier TEKUTO
- hotel Nest at Amami Beach Villas by Nest at Nest Hotels, SHC Group, is located in Amami, a subtropical island in the south of Japan. Architect Yasuhiro Yamashita who is from the island found the perfect location for the client and designed the resort as a collection of intimate villas rather than a massive hotel building. Ideally situated on a hillside that gently slopes down to the beach, the entire resort comprises a restaurant and administration building, three villas with private pools and 10 semi-detached villas – five by the ocean and five on the hillside. This results in a total of 23 guest accommodations. When designing the villas, Yamashita made it an essential requisite
to create an architectural form that would represent the culture and nature of Amami. After studying various forms in depth, he created a new form inspired by traditional architectural vocabularies and the shape of conch shells. The main building represents the face of the whole resort, commanding a panoramic view of the ocean. Two large roofs on the restaurant building overlap each other at odd angles, protruding dynamically, giving the space a swirling feel and multilayered complexity. The pool villas are luxurious suites with a plunge pool and panoramic sea views, while the ocean and hillside villas are meticulously staggered to provide guest privacy and create a rhythmical architectural layout.

C Newera was commissioned by Noah’s Art Culture Company to build an electronic music party venue. Named Club Hepburn and located in Chengdu, China, it had to be full of futuristic elements and incorporate stateof-the-art technology and lighting. Based on the structure of this project, the concept of a capsule was adopted to create the entire architectural appearance. On entering the club, the front reception area is the visual centre of the whole interior space, while the reception hall on the third floor is designed with the spacecraft’s engine as its focal point. Next to the front office is a time tunnel leading into the hall where the illusion of travelling across time transports ravers to the other side of music’s holy land.
Design elements such as sharp angles and streamlined lights have been incorporated in the antechamber to resemble a capsule travelling through the universe. Stage lighting has a variety of multiple functions such as rising and falling, rotating and tilting. This enhances the stereoscopic and scenography space to heighten the customers’ sense of experience and interaction. The VIP room has the design concept of a time shuttle, giving customers a visual shock through line geometry graphics and environment lighting which organically combines the ceiling, wall and floor. Additionally, two sightseeing elevators on the building’s façade resemble rockets in a launch tower to add further reference to the overall striking, spacecraft theme.

D a professional interior design service offering stylish, customised, spacious and functional interior design solutions. The company’s art director Maggy Cheung used an array of materials and colour combinations for the award-winning project Wylie Court in Hong Kong. Initially, the space was reminiscent of interiors from the 90s, practical with dark colours and furniture. The challenge was to create a better lit space and transform the interiors into an open and warm environment. Large windows alongside a palette of almond, light grey, cream and contrasting blue pieces were chosen in order to create an inviting space. The designer used stylish borderlines
to match the classically-styled furniture, creating a heritage look and feel with a touch of modernity for a renovated English style. The client requested entertaining areas which could be used frequently to accommodate gatherings with friends. Thus, the designer reserved an open and functional space exclusively for the bar and tables with a close connection to both the kitchen and dining areas. The separate dining area features a central round wooden table and is highlighted by a large lamp in a metal finish to distinguish the space from the living areas. The snug master bedroom is a completely white space with quilted walls while the master bathroom features sharp contrasting blues on variegated tile panels made of flower patterned faience.

, Hoe & Yin Design Studio is an interior architecture company based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It has won awards for two of its latest projects, the first of which is Colony Co-Working Space at KL Eco City in the Klang Valley. Having been colonised by the British between the 18th and 20th centuries, Malaysia used to be known as British Malaya. This strong British influence was reflected in tropical Malayan architecture and interiors. However, following rapid development over the decades, the Malaysian skyline has filled with international style buildings. Through the interior design of Colony Co-Working Space at KL Eco City, Hoe & Yin aims to bring back the essence of British Malaya influences into its working lifestyle environment. Featuring
chequered black and white tiles on the floor, a coffered ceiling and tropical furniture, the work space resembles more of a comfortable and cheerful home rather than an office. Sky Residence is a three-bedroom private apartment of 158m² within Setia Sky Residences in the centre of Kuala Lumpur. Owned by a family of three, the client’s brief was for a modern elegant design featuring and abundance of curves, creative art pieces and artistic lighting. The colour palette uses a harmony of varying grey and brown shades to create a soothing yet opulent ambience. Marble feature walls, tinted mirrors and glossy accents bring out a stately home feel, while clean-lined wooden furniture adds to the glamour of the apartment without being excessively showy.

G A, an international design company based in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, has been accredited with the design of a number of Grade A office buildings around the city due to the company’s directors’ strong understanding of international design standards and attention to detail. A large majority of TwoG’s projects are re-engagement from existing clients, following success stories from previous projects. TwoG’s entry in to the Asia Pacific Property Awards program is for Friendship Tower, an LEED Green Certified Grade A office building located in Ho Chi Minh City, with the intent to meet the demand for fully serviced office buildings. The design of the building is a celebration of the diplomatic relationship formed through the years between Slovakia and Vietnam.
The project is in a landmark location, home to some of the city’s most recognisable and historic buildings. There are few locations which offer such stunning visuals – with this in mind, the project is more than simply office space – it provides its users with unsurpassed comfort, an energy efficient workspace and the connection to the local context which is unique in its own right. Currently under construction, the project was designed using post-tensioned slab floors for the superstructure, whilst the substructure was designed to minimise ground settlement outside the site boundary, allowing for advanced construction methods due to the close proximity to neighbouring buildings. TwoG worked closely with LKP Vietnam Ltd, a Civil and Structural Engineering company based in Ho Chi Minh City, to ensure maximum structural efficiency throughout the development of the project.

L P is a multiaward-winning boutique real estate agency based in Hong Kong specialising in promoting overseas developments. It is appointed as a marketing consultant to premium international developers looking to increase their brand awareness and to generate business leads and sales through tailor-made localised advertising campaigns. By identifying auspicious markets abroad, it assists buyers in building their international property portfolio. This agency liaison allows Jade Land to act as a direct intermediary between prospective purchasers and developers. The company assures that their purchaser’s assets are secure by continuously providing updates on the construction progress and coordinating with overseas agencies for the future sale and leasing arrangement.
This year, Jade Land implemented a holistic marketing campaign for two Malaysian developments, Alila2 and YOO8 Serviced by Kempinski. Their objective was to educate the public on the market potential of this initially lesser-known location, rather than simply highlighting the features of the development. An innovative mix of contemporary, traditional and digital marketing tools were employed to attract foot traffic to public exhibitions, investment seminars and cocktail and dinner showcases. The company’s consistent visibility on multiple marketing platforms, such as television, radio, print, social media and online portals, greatly contributed to generating brand awareness, interest and confidence in both the development and the developer. Creating a demand for Malaysian properties paves the way for future projects to come.

S I has been in operation since 2011 providing master planning, landscape and interior architectural design services of a high professional standard. Its award-winning interior design project is for the restaurant Latest Recipe at Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort in Thailand. Avoiding the overused Chino-Portuguese style, CancuStudio has introduced the Phuket cultural experience in its design. Thus, the concept of the unique atmosphere of Phuket’s morning fish market provides a casual yet authentic contemporary Phuket vibe. Through careful research and planning, the 463m² restaurant has been arranged to take up to 130 seats (106 inside and 24 outside) without
cluttering the space. A large window has been created at the ocean side to take advantage of the natural light and sea view. Guests are greeted by a welcoming atmosphere, created by the use of a natural wooden colour scheme and warm lighting. An open display above the food counter gives the restaurant an airy atmosphere and also provides added interest by displaying local decorative items. The show kitchen buffet counters have been separated into two for different functions. One is for cooking hot meals, soup, noodles and cold salads and is linked to the kitchen behind. The other is for beverages, desserts and ice-cream. By doing this, the amount of traffic is reduced along with customers’ waiting time.

Floated House
, KWA Architects has won awards for three design projects in Sri Lanka. Floated House is a 1,300 square feet family home belonging to a professional couple and their daughter. The steeply sloping site has breath-taking views of the mountains and so an early decision was made to ‘float’ the building in space. This minimised the earth works, enabled all living spaces to enjoy the views and maintained the continuation of the panorama from the street rather than obstructing it. Hence, the building was partially sunk-in from the street level with its flat concrete roof top kept just below eye-level. The main living/dining area was projected out from the hillside and supported with a single column, whilst bedrooms and other spaces were placed
parallel to the road. The result is a space of pure delight giving a 270-degree view of the surrounding landscape. Thilakawardhana Textiles is a celebrated Sri Lankan fashion chain. The interiors of its first department store in the heritage city of Kandy were designed by KWA incorporating details of Kandyan architecture. It especially features the traditional ‘Binara Flower’ timber motif which has been stylised and in a contemporary way around the store. Amazon Teas Corporate Office in Colombo required a complete redesign. This was inspired by the dynamism and youthfulness of their tea brand ‘The English Tea Shop’ and those behind it. The interior was designed incorporating colours, textures and the aroma of herbs and spices used to flavour the various tea blends.

ES I D believes that interior design is an artistic interpretation of living spaces to show originality and individuality. The company’s award-winning interior design project House at Deauville is a seaside property with two small gardens located at Ting Kau, New Territories, Hong Kong. Owned by a couple with a teenager and a live-in maid, their brief required a master suite, bedroom suite for their son and two guest bedrooms. The clients’ preference was for a modern contemporary design with lots of details and material combinations coupled with light colours and harmonious tones. In order to enhance the experience of the living/dining room, the space has been completely linked
with the back garden. Natural colours have been used on materials such as wood, metal, leather and marble to continue the theme of nature throughout. When the glass sliding doors are opened, the interior and exterior are completely converted into a spacious area which entirely enhances the area. An existing narrow staircase on the ground floor with a tall balustrade was disliked immensely by the clients as they found it much too oppressive. Therefore, KES Interior Design widened the staircase and rearranged the balustrade to make it appear far more transparent and spacious. The overall mood of the property, the enhancement of its views and the way the outside has been integrated with the interiors has surpassed the clients’ expectations.

The company has won four awards relating to two of its latest projects, both located in Hakuba. Rajin Chalet is a spacious, 2,700m² family home over two floors with the main living space positioned upstairs. Perfect for a family of skiers, the property has fantastic views of the surrounding mountains and forest.

High ceilings and large windows maximise the feeling of spaciousness and natural daylight, while a two-way fireplace in the living-dining area forms a perfect partial room separator. This area also gives direct
access to the outside deck which has a covered barbecue section for alfresco entertaining. Eminence has been designed as a contemporary, sustainable chalet used as a weekend retreat for a family of keen skiers and snowboarders. Woven into the architecture is a sense of place where elements of the surrounding nature form the driving inspiration behind the design concept. Exteriors embody elegance, style and practicality with every detail from the heated driveway and internally accessed garage designed for ease of use. Frontal floor-toceiling windows bring the outside in with picturesque views of the mountains and forest. No expense has been spared throughout the interiors which feature top quality finishes, fixtures and appliances. The result is a calm and simplistic setting for comfort and tranquillity.

C, Sri Lanka, Kahawita De Silva (KDS) is a practice which provides full architectural and interior design services for all types of residential and commercial buildings. Its award-winning office interior was designed for Stax Inc, a global strategy consulting firm. As a multinational workplace, cooperation and knowledge sharing is essential for employees, thus the design had to be both visually and socially stimulating. On entering the reception area, specially designed wall art explains the company’s mission. The concept of an open office area has been incorporated for the workstations with black-framed glass partitions defining each row. A soft seating area breaks the monotony of the workstations featuring turf as flooring and more informal lighting fixtures.
As there are three directors’ rooms, each one was designed specifically for the individual, reflecting their status in the company. The meeting room was introduced for small groups of staff and features a contrasting wallpaper, while single-seater booths have been painted in three different colours to match the surrounding wall art. A war room was also included for special discussions with lighting directly focused on the bar counter height table. Wallpaper was then used on both the TV wall and ceiling as an additional feature. Many clients visit the company and so the conference room had to be a focal point of the design. A combination of cool green upholstered chairs contrast with the distinctive blue back wall whole a customised drop down light completes the stylish setting.

A G believes that property is as meaningful and culturally significant as art. This philosophy is reflected in the company’s two latest award-winning projects. Victoria One is a conscious and deliberate expression of everything that is uniquely Victorian. Currently holding the crown for the tallest residential tower in the CBD of Melbourne, Australia, the development pushes all boundaries at a height of 271 metres. Engaging with nationally acclaimed architects, Elenberg Fraser, Golden Age’s vision for Victoria One was to unite nature and urban characteristics in a future for Melbourne and the whole of Victoria. The Victorian botanical has inspired the building’s fabric through green glazing and gold
highlights while its fluid façade is reminiscent of Victoria’s famous waterfalls. Sky One has been created as a new definition of mixed-use living in Box Hill, Melbourne. Before its launch, Golden Age took a Vox Pop Campaign to the streets and asked people of all walks of life about the future development needs of the locality and their lifestyle choices. Therefore, from its residential amenities, right down to the commercial needs in the retail podium, Sky One is a trophy of people’s voices. With one, two, and threebedroom options plus penthouses available and three levels of commercial spaces, there is something for everyone. Sky One is truly a multi-generational masterpiece for all to share which has been developed by the people, for the people.

- architectural project, Hancock Street in Melbourne, Australia, is the third in a series of four developments by Squillace Architects for Salvo Property Group. The brief was to transform a former industrial site into a new and vibrant ‘vertical village’. The result is a striking highrise building that comprises residential, recreational, commercial and retail uses to activate this new urban precinct. Hancock Street promotes a variety of one and two-bedroom apartments, responding to the current demands of the inner-city Melbourne market. As with all Salvo projects, the common facilities are of a higher quality those that offered by surrounding buildings. These include a luxury resort style pool and gymnasium and generously landscaped
outdoor recreation areas on the podium terrace level and a rooftop sky garden. The local Melbourne skyline was a key driver of the design, enabling it to harmonise with the surrounding striking high-rise towers while also creating a distinguishing point of difference. Accentuating the slender proportions of the site and its proximity to a motorway, the heavier base of the structure interprets the concrete freeway while the sharpness of the slender tower reflects the speed of the passing traffic. All apartments and common spaces have panoramic views of the Melbourne CBD, Royal Botanic Gardens, Albert Park and towards Port Philip Bay. By providing these vistas to all residents, the egalitarian and community qualities of the building have been fully promoted.
