WHILE OTHERS ARE STILL PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE, FILINVEST CITY IS ALREADY BUILDING AND LIVING IN IT, OFFERING
RESIDENTS, LOCATORS, AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS A TASTE OF GREEN, UPSCALE LIVING IN A MODERN URBAN SETTING.
FILINVEST CITY, the forward-thinking development in Alabang, Muntinlupa City, has now become the most coveted address in the southern part of Metro Manila, redefining what it means to be a visionary township. Fostering a community where one can lead a balanced live-work-play lifestyle, Filinvest City seamlessly integrates convenience, luxury, and sustainability into its masterplanned development.
From its residential neighborhoods to its LEED-certified commercial buildings and corporate offices, Filinvest City strives for harmony and balance, extending this principle to building a community where everything is within reach. Schools, hospitals, markets, parks, and even places of work are easily accessible. With everything within close proximity, Filinvest epitomizes modernity and accessibility.
Don Ubaldo, First Vice President of Filinvest Townships, shares, “Filinvest City is a testament to our dedication to innovation, sustainability, and community. Through the city’s seamless integration of residential, commercial, and leisure spaces, we set a new standard for vibrant, holistic urban living and modern, master-planned developments. We look forward to building a stronger, more exciting township, one that continually evolves and innovates to support the needs of the community.”
Filinvest City is designed to support the different aspects of modern life, with 244 hectares of prime property divided into separate districts. These districts delineate unique economic zones, residential
areas, parks and gardens, and other important parts of the city. While distinct, these districts are integrated, ensuring a holistic living experience for residents and professionals. They are interconnected by roads and pathways, contributing to its identity as a walkable city, as well as a robust transportation system that includes e-jeeps.
This interconnectivity extends to a larger scale, as Filinvest City serves as an important convergence point, connecting southern CBDs like Batangas, Cavite, and Las Pinas to greater Metro Manila, and vice versa. Positioned strategically along major thoroughfares like SLEX, Calax, and Daanghari, Filinvest City serves as a strategic hub for the economy.
As a smart, future-ready township, Filinvest City learns from other global leaders and adopts the best practices from all around the world. Proudly, it is the first and only green-certified CBD in the country, earning the prestigious 3-star rating for the Pilot Version of BERDE Districts (Building for Ecologically Responsive Design Excellence) by the Philippine Green Building Council. It previously made history by being awarded LEED Gold (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) by the U.S. Green Building Council, one of the most prestigious global recognitions for innovative sustainable developments.
Through its groundbreaking developments, Filinvest City is paving the way and inspiring other CBDs to adopt ecofriendly solutions and green design into their master-planning.
Filinvest City, the preferred address for both local and multinational companies, offers numerous commercial and office spaces catering to businesses of all sizes, from small and midsize enterprises (SMEs) to large corporations.
Parkway Corporate Center (PCC) is one such premier property that helps stakeholders in achieving their goals. The 32-story office and condominium development features a business center with four flexible office spaces ideal for conferences, seminars, and other functions. Each room is equipped with state-of-the-art technology to facilitate important meetings, and rooms can be combined to create ample space for larger company events.
PCC is also built to foster community and productivity with modern amenities such as the podium deck, pocket gardens, and common balconies. Here, people can bond and socialize throughout the day.
For the benefit of stakeholders, PCC is strategically located near Festival Mall and the Filinvest Exit, ensuring easy accessibility for employees and executives commuting to and from work. Professionals can walk to the transport hub at the mall, while those with vehicles can utilize the less crowded Filinvest Exit, reducing travel time on the road.
Taking inspiration from the gardens in Filinvest City, 1001 Parkway Residences seamlessly integrates lush greenery into its modern architecture, set to be the tallest residential development in Alabang. With its iconic presence, these Garden Towers will redefine the skyline of Southern Metro Manila.

1001 Parkway Residences also offers generous spaces for each unit, all equipped with balconies for outdoor recreation within the living space.

Filinvest City stands as a testament to forward-thinking urban planning and sustainable development. As the premier address in the Metro South, it continues to set the standard for vibrant, holistic urban communities, providing unmatched quality of life and opportunities for growth. Whether for work, leisure, or residence, Filinvest City remains the address of choice for those seeking the ultimate urban lifestyle experience.

Keturah Reserve in Meydan is the first development in the Middle East to immerse residents in nature through Bio Living. The project offers transformational living through its spatial design, where nature is incorporated into the built environment to improve occupants’ physical, mental, and emotional health. Bio Living creates the perfect synergy between interior design, architecture, and landscape with complete respect for the surrounding ecosystem.
Keturah Reserve features 93 townhouses, 90 villas, and 540 units across six apartment block buildings. The project was developed to foster a thriving and harmonious community with communal spaces like The Park (featuring open-air meditation and exercise zones), an outdoor pool, and women’s and men’s gyms and spas. Just as with the architecture, activities such as the Pilates Studio, WaterBike pool, Silk Rope classes, and a rooftop meditation and yoga space are all designed to develop and strengthen the body’s core from the inside out.
Keturah Reserve homes are uniquely designed from the inside out using the Golden Mean principle of proportion and ratio to create harmony in space. Both interiors and architecture are crafted from the same raw materials and colours to subtly merge the architecture with the surrounding desert landscape.
“New Luxury is all about experience. I want to give people a space to connect, with their family, with their mind, with themselves, and with all aspects of their life. I want to create something with an authentic value that will endure for generations; a beautiful development, beautifully crafted, with a trusted developer. We are building a brand that people can trust and buy into blindly,” says Talal Al Gaddah, Founder, and CEO of Keturah.
Head of Mayfair Sales
ourneying through Mayfair’s property market reveals a host of insights from seasoned experts. Charles Lloyd, Head of Mayfair Sales at Beauchamp Estates, paints an evocative picture, describing Mayfair as the quintessential heart of central London, steeped in history and coupled with an authentic ‘village’ ambiance. Charles elaborates, “The area is visually pleasing, both in respect of architecture and variety of homes available, in addition to which it is well maintained. Home to world class shops and restaurants it also hosts the capital’s most exclusive members clubs and hotels.
“As an urban village, alongside London’s other ultra-prime areas Knightsbridge and Marylebone, Mayfair has a distinct vibe that is both historical and contemporary”, Charles continues. “The grandeur of the period properties sits well alongside discreet contemporary luxury. The slightly smaller scale, in comparison to many of the profile properties in Belgravia squares and modern Knightsbridge developments bring an intimacy to the area, which a wide range of buyers find enticing.”
Investigating DDRE Global’s Advisor Jessica Bishop’s discourse on Mayfair’s elegance, she delves into the nuanced appeal of the neighbourhood. Jessica articulates, “Mayfair isn’t necessarily known for being ‘cool,’ but for its quality and discretion... Some may think it goes against the grain to purchase in the most notable monopoly board location, in order to gain discretion, but the services of the buildings, and the independent boutiques of Burlington arcade and discreet quiet roads such as Shepherds market, Grosvenor Hill, and Hill Street make it feel very intimate.
“The notoriously inaccessible art scene is also curated in Mayfair; the galleries, the openings, the auctions - those in the know are living there and are discreetly walking street to street bidding millions of pounds with passers-by having no idea who they are.”
Head of Sales for Knight Frank Mayfair office, Alastair Nicholson emphasises, “Mayfair represents the gold standard of property in Central London. The area is internationally renowned for its famous fashion boutiques, restaurants, hotels and private members’ clubs. All of these have risen in numbers over the past few years and so too has the desirability of the area - Mayfair truly is a cosmopolitan global destination for the ultra-wealthy.”

Alastair’s reflections on Mayfair’s future prospects seamlessly transition back to Charles’ optimistic vision of ongoing enhancements elevating Mayfair’s residential intrigue. Charles expresses, “With numerous public realm improvements underway… Mayfair’s attractiveness as a residential destination is poised for further elevation.”
Expanding on the economic trends shaping Mayfair’s market dynamics, Jessica notes, “Demand for quality stock in Mayfair consistently outstrips supply. Scarcity has intensified following Westminster City Council’s restrictions on new apartments over 2,000 sq. ft.”
Alexander Broadfoot, Sales Director and Private Office Advisor at Engel & Völkers London, summarises the current state and projected trends of Mayfair’s real estate market, stating: “London isn’t immune to global market trends, however destination locations such as Mayfair can be better insulated owing to a seller’s unwillingness to release a prime asset and a buyer’s desire to secure the perfect property.
“Demand is high and the top properties remain a well-kept secret. We have seen an increased demand for high-valued premium short-lets as well as strong demand for super-prime commercial spaces. Despite the current talk of company’s departing the office model, owning a prime Mayfair commercial address elevates your company on a global platform, as well as acting as a magnet for the top talent.”
“Mayfair represents the gold standard of property in Central London.”
Sales Director and Private Office Advisor Engel & Völkers London
Regarding the crucial factors enhancing property values and desirability in Mayfair, Alexander emphasises: “Mayfair is fortunate to benefit from fantastic transport links including Green Park Tube station and Bond Street providing easy access across the city and beyond. The area itself has seen significant investment from the Grosvenor estate to ensure it retains its position as the premier London destination, as well as enhancing its Victorian facade.”
On emerging architectural trends shaping Mayfair’s unique character, Alexander notes: “Developments in Mayfair have, across the board, ensured that they meet the expected standard for the area; luxury, lifestyle and, dare I say, louche. Mayfair provides its residents with access to the finest things in life, rubbing shoulders with high society.”
Jessica adds insight into the exclusivity of Mayfair, emphasising its private members’ clubs as a key draw, stating, “Humanity loves exclusivity. A key likeability of Mayfair is that it is home to some of the capital’s most exclusive private members’ clubs – they really do give people a reason to be in Mayfair and buy here. We’re now seeing other areas trying to follow suit, with one soon to be opening in Kensington. Transportation links are irrelevant for those buying in Mayfair. In fact, that’s what makes it desirable. Everyone has a driver or is within walking distance of everything they need.”
Alastair rounds out the discussion with a forwardlooking perspective, stating, “Mayfair has an enduring appeal and as long as the amenities that make the area so cosmopolitan and affluent are still in existence there is no doubt that this most glamorous destination in central London and will remain so. Mayfair exhibits a unique charm and also mysticism. The amenities that exist cater to that market. Whilst historically Mayfair comprised a large proportion of offices, now it offers best in class residential properties. Its adaptability over time proves there is no reason to believe that the area won’t remain at the top of the pile.”

“The city has seen a rise in innovative architectural designs, with a focus on sustainable and eco-friendly practices.”
ed by a dynamic mix of factors, including economic vibrancy and cultural richness, Manchester’s real estate landscape distinguishes itself from other locations in England.
According to Jamie Adam, Director and Head of Residential Development Sales at Savills in Manchester, the city’s appeal stems from a multitude of factors. “There are a number of factors which have contributed to Manchester flourishing beyond just the residential market,” notes Jamie. “As one of the fastest-growing UK cities, driven by growth in commercial occupiers, first-class developments, and high-quality job opportunities, there are more 25-29 year-olds living in the region than anywhere else in the country.”
Jason Watkins, CEO of Lomond Group, Manchester Brands, concurs, emphasising the city’s economic vibrancy as a key driver of its property market. “Firstly, the city has experienced significant economic growth and development, with a thriving job market and a strong presence in industries like technology, finance, and creative sectors,” says Jason. Unlike the sky-high property prices of London, Manchester offers a more accessible housing market, making it an enticing destination for investors and homebuyers alike.
Recent economic trends have only bolstered Manchester’s property market. “Demand for city centre apartments has remained strong for a number of years in Manchester,” explains Jamie. “With working patterns as a result of the pandemic contributing to a 37.8% increase in mean average rental growth for new lets over the three-year period between 2020 and 2023.”
Crucial to Manchester’s real estate appeal are its robust amenities, transportation links, and local infrastructure. Jamie highlights the city’s extensive Metrolink system, which accommodated 36 million passenger journeys during the 2022/23 financial year. “It is this ease of access through the heart of the city and its surrounds, coupled with regular direct rail services to London in 2h 6m, which enhances its appeal,” he states. Jason underscores the importance of proximity to quality schools, healthcare facilities, and recreational spaces, along with efficient public transportation options and connectivity to major road networks.
Architecturally, Manchester showcases a blend of modernity and heritage preservation. “The standard of residential development, both in terms of scale and design, is the most striking change in the past few years,” observes Jamie. “A higher quality of architecture, development, and the proposition of high-quality amenities highlight the ambition being shown by both developers and Manchester as a whole.”
Looking ahead, both experts are optimistic about Manchester’s property market prospects. Jamie predicts, “Over the next five years house prices in the North West of England are expected to increase by 20.2%, with Manchester expected to outperform regional cities for house price growth.”
Jason believes that the city’s appeal as a vibrant urban centre positions it for sustained growth, but he also cautions, “Nonetheless, vigilance towards factors such as interest rates, government policies, and economic fluctuations remains imperative for informed decision-making in the property market.”

Explore the dynamic property market of Antigua and Barbuda through the lens of industry experts
he property market in Antigua & Barbuda is experiencing a surge in interest and demand, driven by its unique features, robust economy, and growing tourism sector.
Rufus Gobat, Sales Director at Pearns Point, and Chris Parra, Managing Director at One Caribbean Estates, provide valuable insights into the current state and future prospects of the property market in this Caribbean gem.
Rufus provides a comprehensive overview of the current market in Antigua, underscoring the strong demand for top-tier properties. He remarks, “The top end of the Antigua property market remains strong, with demand outpacing a fairly restricted supply with very few genuine beachfront property opportunities such as Pearns Point available.” This scarcity, coupled with an increase in demand from both North American and European buyers, has propelled prices upwards by as much as 30% in certain areas. Notably, Antigua’s appeal has extended to “digital nomads,” individuals who, having experienced the island’s lifestyle during the pandemic, have transitioned from visitors to investors.
Chris echoes similar sentiments, noting the steady growth and rising demand across residential and investment properties within the Antigua and Barbuda market. He states, “The property market has been experiencing steady growth, with an increase in demand for both residential and investment properties.” This upward trajectory is particularly pronounced in prime locales such as coastal areas and luxury developments.
Antigua & Barbuda’s pull extends far beyond its picturesque vistas, as Chris highlights, “Antigua & Barbuda offer a unique blend of stunning natural beauty, a favourable climate, and a range of attractions making it an appealing destination for property buyers and investors,” he remarks.
Navigating the legal and regulatory landscape of property ownership in Antigua requires a nuanced understanding, as Rufus explains. He notes, “Land title ownership is based on a registered block and parcel system,” underlining the necessity for buyers to engage local attorneys for the requisite legal checks. Additionally, non-nationals must obtain an Alien Landholding License, with further taxes applicable. Chris elaborates on this, stressing the importance of due diligence, legal representation, and an understanding of property taxes and residency options for international buyers.
“Antigua & Barbuda offer a unique blend of stunning natural beauty, a favourable climate, and a range of attractions making it an appealing destination for property buyers and investors”
The demand for properties in Antigua & Barbuda spans a diverse array of options, as both experts indicate. Rufus underscores the premium placed on water and beachfront properties in Antigua, while Chris expands on this for both Antigua and Barbuda, identifying the high demand for beachfront villas, waterfront condos, gated communities, income-generating properties, and land for development.
Looking towards the horizon, Chris paints a picture of promise and growth for the Antigua and Barbuda property market. “The property market in Antigua & Barbuda is poised for sustained growth and promising future prospects,” he states. Factors such as the thriving tourism industry, Citizenship by Investment programme, infrastructure development, foreign investment, and sustainable development initiatives all contribute to this optimistic outlook.
In conclusion, Antigua & Barbuda stands as a veritable paradise for property investors, offering not just financial returns but a lifestyle beyond compare. With its azure waters, golden sands, and investorfriendly environment, it continues to captivate the imaginations of investors worldwide, beckoning them to partake in its bountiful offerings.

This exhibition is devoted entirely to drawings and unites works from Flanders with the substantial collection in the Ashmolean Museum.
What is particularly compelling is that many of the 120 sketches and print designs are so sensitive to light damage that they are rarely exhibited, and some 30 have never been displayed before, allowing the boast that this is “a once in a lifetime show.”
Among the highlights are a sketchbook in which a young Rubens copied Holbein’s Dance of Death woodcuts; intricate drawings by Pieter Bruegel the Elder including the bizarre Temptation of St Anthony; portrait studies by Anthony van Dyck, and examples of rare ‘friendship albums’, gifts given between artists and peers. Much of the work is worlds away from the conventional Flemish art we know: the meticulous portraits; elaborate
altarpieces and epic allegorical panels. Here however we find some of the bones that built them, including many studies for world famous paintings.
Delicate sketches by Antwerp’s favorite son, Rubens, come as a surprise from the master of vast and florid allegorical scenes. Captured from his window, Five Women Chatting by Jacques Jordaens shows how artists of the era were able jot down
complex images in an instant, often using the barest of strokes of the pen to do so.
The inspiration for Ruben’s The Abbot and Death originated from his travels in Germany where he came across Holbein’s book of woodcuts, Danse Macabre. The subject was banned by the Catholic Inquisition for suggesting all men – however holy – become equal in the face of death. “It’s extraordinary that Rubens had these illicit images in his possession,” says curator An Van Camp.
Bruegel’s sketch for his Temptation of Saint Anthony, a howling disembodied head topped by a fish and surrounded by demonic demi-creatures, people and amphibians, is so rich in nightmarish imagery that we can hardly bear to look at it… or tear ourselves away. The contrast with other works – tender portraits of children and meticulous studies of insects and flowers – only adds to the appeal of this unmissable exhibition.

It is the Venice Biennale once more and throughout the summer and autumn hundreds of thousands of art lovers will throng the famous squares, narrow streets and busy canals of La Serenissima. There’s really no good time to avoid the crowds and the only sensible way to tackle the abundance of art is a good pair of shoes and a selective list.
The Benin Pavilion will stand out to many people whose main (and possibly only) acquaintance with the art of this West African state is due to the controversy surrounding the Benin Bonzes.
Considered by some among the greatest artworks found in Africa, many of these sculptures and plaques have ended up in museums and collections in Britain, Germany and America. Nigeria and other African nations are not alone in calling for their restitution – German, American and some British museums have returned or made agreements to return the Benin Bronzes they hold.
The bronzes, which derive from an earlier tradition of cast brass, include plaques, heads, and animal and human figures. They were created from the 16th century onwards by artisans working for the royal court in Benin City. The best known pieces include the cast brass plaques which once decorated Benin’s Royal Palace and which provide an important historical record of the dynastic and social history of the Kingdom. They include marvellous representations of how the Portuguese and other Europeans who arrived from the 15th century appeared to the African artisans.
By the 19th century the British dominated the Nigerian coast. Tensions over trade and land resulted in conflict and in 1897 the British led a punitive expedition to quell the revolts. They captured Benin City and the aftermath saw widespread destruction and looting. Many bronzes were seized and given to various army officials and over time they have been dispersed. Today the British Museum has the largest collection of over 900, but remains adamant that it cannot legally return the bronzes. By contrast, London’s Horniman Museum has agreed to send 72 bronzes back to Nigeria and Berlin has sent 22 bronzes back. Some of the returned bronzes will have a new home in the Edo Museum of West African Art in Benin City.
Another part of the story of Benin, which borders the Atlantic on what was once called the Slave Coast, is the legacy of that infamous trade. Both stories
are addressed in the Benin pavilion. Everything Precious Is Fragile delves deeply into ideals that rest on the Yoruba maxim Eso l’aye: “the world is fragile.”
This includes a focus on returning not only the objects but Beninese ideals predating the colonial era, including matriarchy and feminism. The four artists on whose shoulders this important task rests are Chloé Quenum, Moufouli Bello, Ishola Akpo, and Romuald Hazoumè.
The pavilion is a major step in the government of Benin’s quest to have its looted artworks returned. It is also a signal of the country’s determination to develop its economy through the creative industries.
Until 24th November at Artiglierie, Arsenale, Venice, Italy.
With the Summer Exhibition in full swing downstairs at the Royal Academy, upstairs a selection of just 70 artworks that distill Ukraine’s place in the story of European modernism have been assembled.
Underpinning the show is the message of Ukraine’s search for self-government in the troubled times encompassing the First World War and Russian Revolution.
The cultural profile of Ukraine includes elements deriving from the fusion of Ukrainian, Polish, Russian and Jewish elements. A single national style that would mark out Ukraine’s statehood and cultural autonomy was the somewhat wild aspiration of some of the artists of this period. For a while in the 1920s, art, literature, theatre and cinema all flourished.
Among the artists on show who emerged from this complex historical background are Alexander Archipenko, Sonia Delaunay and Kazymyr Malevych.
Divided into six small sections, they espoused movements like Cubo-Futurism, an amalgam of ideas absorbed from the capital cities of Western Europe.
One room features the Kultur Lige movement, a conglomerate of Jewish artists such as El Lissitzky, Issakhar Ber Ryback and Sarah Shor while another looks at Early Soviet Ukraine and the artistic hubs of Kharkiv - briefly the capital - and Kyiv.
The show ends with a section dedicated to the Last Generation, whose artistic activities were cut short in 1932 with the Soviet Union’s abolition of all independent art groups and the imposition of socialist realism as the single official artistic style.
The notion that Cubism, Futurism or some other-ism would somehow save the world seems far-fetched today and perhaps speaks of an innocence that the first half of the 20th century rapidly destroyed.
From 29th June to 13th October at the Royal Academy, Piccadilly, London, UK.
Mizuki Park is built on an area of 26 hectares; this is the largest project ever undertaken by two Japanese partners, Nishi Nippon Railroad and Hankyu Hanshin, in cooperation with Nam Long Investment Corp.

A kaleidoscopic collection of Black figurative painting drawn from the last 100 years is on show in Basel’s Kunstmuseum. The exhibition features more than 200 works of art from public and private lenders located in 26 countries. Works by Michael Armitage, Njideka Akunyili Crosby, Ben Enwonwu, Joy Labinjo, Jacob Lawrence, Chéri Samba among others are featured.
With a focus on painting, the exhibition celebrates how artists from Africa and its diaspora have imagined, memorialised and asserted African and African-descent experiences. It is part of the ongoing discourse on African and Black liberation and the intellectual and philosophical movements with this.
The exhibition’s title is inspired by the 2019 Netflix series When They See Us directed by Ava DuVernay and based on a true story. In the mini-series five teenage boys from Harlem become trapped in a nightmare when they’re falsely accused of a brutal attack in Central Park. Replacing “they” with “we” in the title of the exhibition made a crucial shift in perspective – the works on show bring into focus the artists’ lived realities as subject of their own art.
When We See Us celebrates the resilience, essence, and political charge of Black joy, sensuality, spirituality, emancipation and festivities. The huge swell in appreciation of Black figurative art over the last two decades has propelled many of the artists on show into prominence. It is extraordinary that some have been in the background to date.
The exhibition was conceived and organized by Zeitz, MOCCA and has been adapted for the Kunstmuseum Basel.
Until 27th October at the Kunstmuseum, Basel, Switzerland.
To Live Long Is To See Much (Ritual
A London residence has recently become a private museum showing the forgotten archive of the American photographer William John Kennedy (d.2021).
From April, visitors may – by prior arrangement – immerse themselves in the records of bohemian New York life and many of its most fascinating characters including Andy Warhol and Robert Indiana.
In the mid 1990s Kennedy and his wife stumbled on a trove of negatives and transparencies which they had thought lost. They document the year that Kennedy met Indiana and became friends. Kennedy went on to meet and photograph Warhol and his circle including Gerard Malanga, Ultra Violet and Taylor Mead.
“Andy was this strange bird. When I was in his company, he was very shy, you had to draw him out,” Kennedy recalled in an interview before he died. “He was much more relaxed with Bill (Robert). Bill came up with all these ideas for pictures – getting Andy to wear paintings like sandwich boards or pose behind the acetate for his Marilyn Monroe screen prints – and Andy went along with them.”
Highlights of the archive include a portrait of Indiana with his most famous creation, Love, one of the world’s most reproduced artworks. There are also unusual colour photographs of Warhol that show him in personal, unguarded poses and have been called the most intimate portraits of Warhol ever seen.

Exploring the phenomenal rise of the property market in Cyprus and Malta
“ e country boasts 340 sunny days per year, a clean environment, excellent education, and medical care.”
Situated in the heart of the Mediterranean, Cyprus boasts more than just its stunning landscapes and ancient history. With its booming property market, it has become a hub for high-end living, attracting the attention of investors and affluent individuals worldwide.
Anastasia Yianni, CEO of Cyprus Sotheby’s International Realty, provides insights into the current state of this market and what makes Cyprus such an attractive destination.
“The luxury market in Cyprus is in high demand,” Anastasia notes, “Attracting attention from wealthy individuals and businesses alike.” Despite a slight reduction compared to the previous year, Cyprus continues to attract investors with its favourable business conditions and enviable lifestyle.
But what is it that makes Cyprus so irresistible? Anastasia’s enthusiasm is palpable as she explains the island’s virtues. “Cyprus is an amazing place to live,” she declares. “The country boasts 340 sunny days per year, a clean environment, excellent education, and medical care.” And let’s not forget the food, a cornerstone of Cypriot culture and cuisine.
High-end living in Cyprus offers two distinct options - single-family homes and lavish condos. For the former, privacy, expansive views, and lush gardens are paramount. Meanwhile, the appeal of condo living lies in its on-site amenities - from concierge services to spas and tennis courts, each detail crafted to elevate the living experience.
For investors eyeing the luxury property market in Cyprus, Anastasia stresses the importance of location, security, and quality of services. These considerations, she notes, are the pillars upon which successful investments are built.
But what about returns? Anastasia sheds light on the potential rental income, noting yields in the range of 4-6%. It’s a promising figure that underscores the viability of Cyprus as an investment destination.
As we peer into the future, Anastasia’s optimism is contagious. “The future is bright,” she asserts. “With the country’s economy growing, more workplaces being created, and families relocating to Cyprus, the demand for real estate continues to soar.”

“Malta is fast becoming known as an investment powerhouse, o ering a business-friendly environment and maximum growth potential.”
Benji Psaila Head of Sales & Letting Malta Sotheby’s International Realty
The enchantment of Malta as a premier destination for residing and investing has never been stronger. According to Benji Psaila, Head of Sales & Letting at Malta Sotheby’s International Realty, the current state of the luxury property market in Malta reflects a dynamic shift in buyer preferences, catalysed by the pandemic. Benji notes, “Buyers are increasingly seeking waterfront luxury apartments, larger homes, and investing in land and luxury villas with outdoor space, all while remaining close to urban centres.”
One significant trend is the rising demand for properties within luxury lifestyle developments, appointed as “Special Designated Areas.” Benji highlights these developments as particularly appealing to foreigners due to the property rights they afford, akin to those of Maltese citizens. These developments offer an array of amenities such as 24/7 security, concierge services, pools, and gyms, making them ideal for investors seeking lock-upand-go properties.
Malta’s intrinsic attractions and activities further enhance its desirability as a place to live. Benji underscores Malta’s 300 days of sunshine, crystalclear waters, and picturesque beaches as primary draws for luxury travellers and investors alike. Additionally, Malta’s rich cultural heritage, stable economy, and vibrant tradition contribute to its appeal.
The architectural landscape of Malta offers a unique blend of historic charm and modern opulence. Benji notes that character homes, some dating back centuries, boast distinctive features like vaulted ceilings and limestone walls. Conversely, modern
villas offer contemporary amenities such as indoor and outdoor pools, private gyms, and home theatres. Lifestyle developments provide a luxurious yet low-maintenance option for discerning buyers.
For investors eyeing the Maltese luxury property market, location reigns supreme. Malta’s strategic position between Europe and Africa positions it as an ideal investment hub, facilitating global enterprise and trade. Moreover, proximity to key amenities such as shopping districts, dining establishments, and recreational facilities adds value to luxury properties.
Benji emphasises that rental yields for luxury properties in Malta typically range from 4-6% per annum, with properties leased for a minimum of one year and often fully furnished. Looking ahead, Malta’s robust economy, forecasted to grow by 4.6% in 2024 and 4.3% in 2025, coupled with its stable political climate, bodes well for the property market. Benji concludes, “Malta is fast becoming known as an investment powerhouse, offering a business-friendly environment and maximum growth potential.”

The custom-made bed, located at the heart of the room, exhibits sophistication and comfort.

These inspirations are reflected in the choice of materials and surfaces, exactly mirrored in the show home.
Located amidst the bustling Dubai Business Bay, you’ll find The Opus, a sculptured twintower complex by the legendary Zaha Hadid.
XBD had been briefed by its client, Modern Working, to not only create their headquarters at this iconic landmark, but to also include individual workspaces and offices that could be rented out.
Covering 8,400 sq. ft., this space integrates coworking areas, private offices, an art gallery, and an amphitheatre-style seating area, fostering collaboration, creativity, and innovation. The XBD design team paid great attention to the layouts, creating an environment that is both visually captivating and functionally efficient.
XBD’s other landmark projects include the W Residences – E22, Riviera, and the Metropolitan Towers in Nigeria. Together the company has built up a portfolio of work aligned by a passion to set high standards of design in every project.

Lead8’s MixC Wuhan is a new retail development that forms the centrepiece of a major lifestyle-driven urban destination for central China’s most populous city. The vision for the scheme was to be a jewel in the heart of the city. The concept looks to create an interactive city interface, creating a pulse in the central district and bringing an energy that harmonises with, yet also contrasts the city’s natural and urban edge. The destination is imagined as a place where people can shop, dine, live, work and be inspired –the heart of the community that nourishes a balanced life.
The landmark retail development features the 190,000m2 MixC retail mall and a pedestrian shopping street, which are connected to and support the wider mixed-use scheme including two commercial office towers and four residential buildings.
The Far Eastern Department Store design in Zhubei, Taiwan, introduces a distinctive
and new addition to the department store experience in Hsinchu County and has also been welcomed as a platform for cultural inheritance in the area.
The development is located in Zhubei Zhuangjing North Road, adjacent to the Hsinchu Science Park and near the highspeed railway station. The department store is spread over eight above-ground levels and two basement levels with a design that has taken inspiration from the importance of celebrating local culture, innovatively re-imagining spaces using key values and elements of the Hakka culture.
Hakka culture is a dominant part of the surrounding Hsinchu Country with Hakka family groups accounting for over 80% of the total population. The design team sought to interpret elements from the local culture through the use of colour, texture and lighting, and transpose them into different settings to create an array of experiences for visitors.
Nantong Golden Eagle World is located in the heart of a new Central Business District and is one of the developer’s most prestigious sites in China. The brief for the scheme was to conceive an integrated, visionary mixed-use project that would form a new contemporary and meaningful world-class city centre for Nantong.
The site enjoys views of the surrounding Langshan mountains, the urban cityscape and the world-famous Yangtze river. Canals flow through plots of the site, creating a waterfront landscape and opportunities for active waterside experiences and people-centric outdoor pedestrian networks throughout this part of the city. The scheme comprises an incredible line-up of waterfront retail, F&B
streets, super high-rise towers, premium office, hotel and service apartments. With a total land area of 16,000m2, the development will spread across 650,000m2 of above-ground space and a further 260,000m2 below ground.
Lead8 has demonstrated its ability to design and deliver innovative and culturally significant developments across China and Taiwan. From the celebration of Hakka culture in the design of the Far Eastern Department Store in Zhubei to the creation of a vibrant mixed-use destination in the heart of Wuhan, and the integration of a new city centre in Nantong, Lead8 has shown its commitment to creating dynamic spaces that engage with their surroundings and enhance the lives of those who experience them.

aterfall City, strategically located between Johannesburg and Pretoria, stands as a visionary development, redefining urban living both locally and internationally. At its core, the city was designed to harmonise with its community and seamlessly integrate with surrounding infrastructure. As the largest property development in South African history, Waterfall City combines over 28,000 residential units with a vast 2.5 million m2 of gross leasable area for commercial and office space.
Waterfall City’s project goals encompass its strategic location, facilitating easy access through major highways and efficient public transportation. The city boasts future-proofed infrastructure, with significant investments in road upgrades, a world-class fibre optic network, a robust energy supply, and environmentally conscious waste systems.
Architectural freedom is a defining feature of Waterfall City, allowing homeowners the
flexibility to work with approved architects or design their own homes while adhering to architectural guidelines. The city also includes mature lifestyle estates, encouraging multigenerational living and community interaction. The internal and external appearance of Waterfall City is marked by the iconic Mall of Africa, a retail hub inspired by the natural beauty of the African continent. The mall’s design promotes pedestrian-friendly environments, creating an extensive shopping experience. Office spaces within the city follow a modern and efficient design, contributing to the economic vibrancy of the area.
Waterfall City’s commitment to sustainability is exemplified in structures like House Green, which emphasise natural light, ventilation, and rainwater harvesting. This visionary development continues to set new standards for urban design, attracting a sophisticated audience and establishing itself as a symbol of connected living.
The design challenge presented to Haute Architecture DPC for the Chelsea Residence project in New York was transformative: expanding and optimising a six-storey brick townhouse. The primary objective was to reconfigure and expand the triplex penthouse, making it suitable for a family of five. Full-floor apartments below were also refreshed for a contemporary look. A stunning rooftop terrace was also crafted on the newly expanded upper floor.
The sophisticated clients selected the design solution that maximized every available square foot while meticulously optimising the proportions of the triplex’s living spaces. Haute Architecture also proposed adding a glassfloored balcony at the rear, creating valuable usable space in the urban setting without sacrificing daylight for the rooms below.
Upon entering the dramatic double-height living space, one is greeted by expansive
windows and a pendant light sculpture. Moving to the heart of the home – the kitchen and dining area – there is an open and interconnected space serving as the central hub for family gatherings. A breakfast bar at the north end provides views of the quintessential New York City street.
Upstairs, the primary suite occupies the entire top level. Translucent and blackout shades ensure privacy as needed, while operable skylights infuse the space with natural light and ventilation.
The rooftop terrace features a kitchen, dining area, and lounge space, crowned by the stair bulkhead. Concrete pavers underfoot ensure comfort, while glass guardrails frame uninterrupted vistas. Through meticulous attention to detail, innovative design choices, and a commitment to maximising every available square foot, Haute Architecture has breathed new life into this urban gem.

The Vivienda b/f project in Paraguay stands as a testament to thoughtful design amidst the lush landscape of Las Lomas neighbourhood in Asuncion. Spanning two lots, this residence elegantly balances social spaces for gatherings with private sanctuaries for the family. Embracing the verdant environment, the design seamlessly integrates indoor and outdoor living, with a significant garden and pool serving as focal points. Through innovative placement and orientation, the house fosters a connection to nature while maintaining privacy, offering a sanctuary within the bustling city.
In contrast, the OVS Corporate Building project embodies a vision of modernity and
functionality. Designed to house multiple pharmaceutical companies under one roof, the building reflects the values of quality, technology, and a deep care for employees. By embracing the natural elements of the site, including majestic native trees, the architects have created a workspace that promotes collaboration and well-being.

INTERNATIONAL HOTEL SUITE INTERIOR
Amber Villa at Earth Lodge, Sabi Sabi Earth Lodge by Dakota Design
Al Jaddaf Rotana Suite Hotel, a visionary project by WA International, draws inspiration from the natural splendour of the nearby Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary in Dubai. The property is located less than 4 kilometres from this unique wetland reserve, which became the inspiration and narrative for the hotel.

The owner’s wish for generously oversized suites, ranging from 60m2 to 232m2, reflects a commitment to providing spacious luxury in Dubai’s competitive high-end market. WA International’s design director Claire Craig explains: “Throughout the hotel our references to the magnificent nearby mangroves with their tangled roots and rich colours can be found in our interior architectural patterns and finishes. Our custom designed screens, furniture pieces and lighting all reflect the organic nature of the stunning Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary.” For
the hotel’s ‘All Day Dining’ Claire adds, “Our client’s vision for the restaurant was not only to cater to the morning breakfast ritual but become a destination venue in the evening; the food concept was high-end Italian. In contrast to the rest of the hotel’s narrative we decided to create a unique classic Italian dining room. The floors are polished marble and oversized Italianate crystal chandeliers are suspended from the double height spaces.” For the apartments, Claire further explains, “In the studio and one-bedroom apartments, headboards feature hand embroidered scenes of the mangroves. Carpets are designed with leafy patterns. In the living rooms, organic plaster reliefs embellish the ceilings.” All of which contribute to the curated luxury evident throughout the Rotana Suite property, making it a stand-out destination in Dubai’s hospitality landscape.
Viceroy Pri VÉ – located in the heart of Thakur Village, Kandivali East – has been meticulously crafted to redefine urban living. Designed by RSP Consultants, one of the world's foremost architectural firms, the development seamlessly integrates its natural surroundings with its builtin environment, emphasising purposeful luxury with impeccable craftsmanship and top-notch materials. Moreover, as a single signature tower of only 61 apartments and duplexes within a gated community, Viceroy Pri VÉ offers unparalleled exclusivity and a unique living experience, especially in Mumbai's Western Suburbs.
Interestingly, the vision behind Viceroy Pri VÉ was to create an oasis of tranquillity, shielding its residents from the relentless hustle and bustle of the city. As such, taking
inspiration from sustainable architecture prevalent in Singapore and leveraging its immediate proximity to (and its breathtaking views of) the Sanjay Gandhi National Park, Viceroy Pri VÉ incorporates lush green landscapes into its high-rise structure. Given Mumbai’s humid climate, the mere integration of such green architecture and natural ventilation is a luxury available only to a few.
Right beside Viceroy Pri VÉ, Viceroy SaVĀna , also strategically located in Kandivali East, offers an array of carefully selected amenities and purposeful luxury harmoniously blending understated aesthetics with a palette of light colours.
Viceroy Properties' commitment to excellence and its vision for creating contemporary spaces has resulted in these exceptional projects that epitomise luxury living in Mumbai, India.

But what sets this project apart is its dedication to fulfilling ESG’s sustainable development criteria. Core Pacific Plaza will receive international construction certificates such as LEED and WELL, as well as Taiwan’s Green Building Label, Intelligent Building Label, and Structure Accreditation Building certification. These outstanding certifications will ensure that the building meets the best and highest environmental, health, intelligence and safety standards.
But that’s not all. Core Pacific Plaza has achieved contribution incentives for its resilience, liveability and intelligence, thanks
to several innovative design features. The basement and first floor offer retail functions, while the public halls on the first and second floors feature stand-out high ceilings. The first basement level contains a cinema, conference hall, food court and dining spaces, while the third to nineteenth floors are dedicated to grade A offices.
What’s more, the plaza’s pedestrianfriendly streets contribute to its liveability and resilience, while the arbor greenery on the east side of Dongning Road shapes the viewing of the national historic site. The south side of the base is set back to an open space with an average depth of about 25 metres, while the west side of the base is combined with leisure and commercial trails to create an open space for large-scale public activities.
The Core Pacific Plaza, once completed, will become a new landmark in the city, reminding us of the importance of sustainable development and innovative design.

The Winter Garden, The Landmark Hotel by Alex Kravetz Design
The Ocean Beach Villa by Yousef Alkoot Design & Build stands as a harmonious fusion of nature, luxury, and tranquility. Inspired by the Japanese philosophy of “wabi-sabi,” it celebrates imperfection and authenticity while reflecting the client’s deep connection to nature and love for the sea.
This magnificent beachfront villa, resembling a yacht, offers a perpetual sense of journeying while providing the cosy comforts of home. Situated in Pearl City, Kuwait, its step-like design maximizes sea views from every floor, honouring the client’s affinity for the oceans.
The interior follows wabi-sabi principles, using organic shapes and minimalist furnishings to create a serene atmosphere. The villa accommodates the client, their spouse,
and three children in master bedrooms, each with its own closet and comfort room. Balconies offer picturesque vistas. Common areas include a spacious living room, dining area, and a family kitchen, complemented by a swimming pool, cinema, and billiard hall. The rooftop features a seating area, garden, jacuzzi, and a bathroom with panoramic sea views, perfect for outdoor gatherings.
Materials and finishes enhance the villa’s aesthetic, with smart glass windows ensuring sea views from every corner. Adobe exterior walls connect seamlessly with the surrounding desert and sea. This magnificent beach villa is a testament to architectural excellence, a sanctuary where the beauty of imperfection and the allure of the sea converge seamlessly. In the heart of Kuwait City, Assima Mall
stands as a bustling hub of activity, surrounded by iconic landmarks like the Opera House, National Library, and the historic Mubarakiya Market. The mezzanine floor of Assima Mall has become the canvas for a returning client’s vision – Devani Restaurant, a modern Indian dining experience with a touch of London’s culinary charm.
The client’s dream for this space encompasses dynamic RGB lighting to set the mood and create a unique atmosphere for guests. However, the mezzanine floor required substantial work, including finishing touches for the ceiling and flooring. This set the stage for a project that needed to be executed promptly.
The approved design layout thoughtfully balances aesthetics and functionality, replacing circular tables with rectangular ones to
accommodate larger groups and infuse a contemporary touch. The design boasts vertical brass accents, fluted wall cladding, and precise lighting arrangements, casting a timeless modern appeal. The exterior facade blends seamlessly with Assima Mall’s beauty, while the interior boasts captivating lighting and breathtaking decor. The main entrance serves as a pivotal element, shaping the initial impression of the restaurant. Lighting plays a crucial role, not only enhancing aesthetics but also creating a comfortable environment for patrons. The bar counter stands as the magnetic centrepiece, harmonising comfort and functionality for both staff and guests. Devani Restaurant promises to be a unique Indian dining journey, where modern design, innovative materials, and captivating lighting combine to create an unparalleled experience.

Spanning 500m2, the existing wing underwent a substantial retrofit, seamlessly integrating a new 297m2 sector while modernising the entire unit into a pleasantly supportive and therapeutic environment.
To achieve this, extensive research and collaboration were undertaken. Bllend’s team, in coordination with the medical group’s technical department, harmonised the design with cutting-edge technology, ensuring minimal disruption to daily operations. Empirical data collection and analysis, including interviews and observations, informed every aspect of the design process. Considering research in innovative healthcare design, biophilic design and the impact of light and colour on human psychology and
wellness, a healing space was designed for all the participants of the healthcare services.
The final design is a testament to meticulous attention to detail. Geometric volumes are softened, and emotional wellbeing is promoted through visual stimuli from Mediterranean herbs and aromatics. Lighting plays a crucial role, with indirect illumination accentuating curvature and alternating materials and colours. Signage design, often overlooked in healthcare settings, is re-imagined to guide patients optimistically through the space.
Every element, from materials to lighting to signage, is methodically applied to enhance the therapeutic effect, creating a beautifully serene and holistic healing environment. The project serves as a powerful case study of applied research and methodology in health infrastructure design, demonstrating how thoughtful design can have an immense impact on patient well-being and recovery.

The Bespoke, a Desarrollos Sempiterno project, is an exclusive beachfront real estate development in Tulum. Its architecture seamlessly integrates the natural beauty of the Caribbean Sea, mangroves, and tropical jungle, creating a stunning work of art.
Spanning a 3,824m2 plot of land, The Bespoke boasts a prime location at the entrance to Tankah Bay, with 50 metres of direct beachfront access. Its proximity to the Tulum archaeological zone, just 9km away, necessitated the integration of exclusivity and tailor-made service, commonly found in boutique hotels, into a real estate development. For this task, Sempiterno enlisted the expertise of Muro Rojo Arquitectura, renowned for their work in the Riviera Maya, boutique hotels, and luxury residential architecture.
From the outset, the project was envisioned as “tailor-made,” offering 22 unique housing units, ranging from one to two levels and
spanning 100 to 400m2. To further enhance the experience, the development includes amenities such as a beach club, bar, spa with a Nordic circuit, and a fully equipped gym.
The design of The Bespoke Villas draws inspiration from the Mayan worldview, symbolising the emergence of the earth from the sea and the cosmology of the Mayan universe. The integration of ceiba trees, representing the pillars supporting each direction, creates a dialogue with the stars.
The project blends seamlessly with the surrounding environment, engaging with both the turquoise Caribbean Sea and the lush tropical jungle. It offers new dimensions of luxury and exclusivity unique to Tulum, showcasing meticulous craftsmanship and a commitment to quality.
The Bespoke Villas redefine luxury living in Tulum, offering a harmonious blend of architecture, nature, and culture that promises to leave a lasting impression.

Moderno Interiors completed a breathtaking project, transforming a new-build property into a blend of functionality, personalisation, and timelessness. Headed by interior designers
Kajal Patel and Kajal Karena, the project focused on allocating the budget to various rooms based on square footage, ensuring special attention to key areas like the master bedroom suite, kitchen, living room, dining room, and entertainment spaces.
Thoughtfully designed lighting and meticulous attention to detail were central to the project, enhancing the overall ambiance of the home. The design incorporated bespoke joinery, modern furniture, and a mix of new materials and textures, creating statement interiors that place emphasis on luxury and sophistication.
Client preferences played a pivotal role throughout the design process, from the desired open spaces with abundant natural
light to incorporating personal touches like displaying images of ‘Morari Bapu’ and a passion for abstract art.
Storage solutions were a key focus, finding unique ways to discreetly store items, especially in the kitchen area. The design also considered the clients’ love for greenery, incorporating plants to soften spaces and improve air quality. In the kitchen, Moderno Interiors achieved both functional and visually appealing illumination, carefully selecting lighting features and utilising a Lutron control system for flexibility. The kitchen design displayed sustainability with the inclusion of a Quooker tap for energy-efficient water.
The main stairwell showcased wood panels with integrated LED lighting, showcasing different levels and bringing texture to life. The design element extended throughout the property, creating a cohesive and modern look.
The home office design prioritised ergonomics, ensuring a comfortable and
supportive working environment. The incorporation of an electronically operated adjustable table and an ergonomically shaped chair contributed to a functional and aesthetically pleasing home office.
Moderno Interiors has once again showcased its design prowess with the completion of the Linksway project, a high-end residential, detached new-build spanning over 13,297 sq. ft. across five floors. Owned by the Patel family where Kajal Patel, both owner and interior designer, envisioned a seamless kitchen with hidden storage and pantry. Collaborating with Venetti, London, the result is a spacious, modern, and durable kitchen
The project focused on creating a multifunctional kitchen that acts as a social hub, office, and dining space. The open-plan design integrates seating for eight to ten people, high-end appliances, and easy access
to hot/filtered water. Emphasis was placed on the importance of an easy-to-use layout with ample storage, low maintenance materials, and excluded shiny surfaces in the primary kitchen area. Thoughtful details include strategic storage placement for easy retrieval of ingredients, bins for food waste disposal, and sockets with USB ports for various kitchen appliances. The kitchen design adheres to the classic ‘kitchen triangle’ principle and features high-quality Italian porcelain tiles for safety, durability, and easy cleaning.
The overall design concept, guided by Kajal Patel, reflects a timeless aesthetic, achieved through a neutral palette with brown-grey tones and contrast accent colours. Sustainability was a key consideration, influencing material choices such as Dekton for its durability, wear resistance, and ecofriendly features.

The Open Lab Multimedia Center of National Central Library, designed by Key-Stone United Architectural Firm, is an exciting new project located on the 14th floor of a 40-year-old business building in Taipei. Formerly the office of the Environment Protection Administration, the site is adjacent to the popular Ximending Shopping District and the Red House, with the Ximen MRT station just around the corner.
The location of the Open Lab is on Zhonghua Road, which used to be a trendy and popular district in Taipei.

With the aim of creating a multi-functional space that is colourful, open-minded, attractive, and friendly, the Open Lab is perfect for its target audience.
Designed for young artists and learners, the Open Lab features comic book collections,
multi-media, and language learning materials. Users are free to explore and share the space and hardware to get a hands-on experience. The multi-function room space is flexible and features a foldable door with a carpenter studio located in the right-hand corner.

The arc-shaped bookshelves flowing through the entire space create an interesting visual and connect different areas of the lab. With this new interior renovation, the project has become a colourful, creative, and inviting space, perfect for young artists and learners to explore and share.

The client’s vision was to create a furniture showroom that expresses approachability, authenticity, and boldness. The goal was to showcase the brand’s key furniture products with utmost visibility while leaving a lasting impression on visitors through the embodiment of the brand’s sustainable concept. The exhibition hall had to be constructed within a tight timeframe of 48 hours, with minimal environmental impact and the use of recyclable materials that could be repurposed at the end of their life cycle.
The exterior of the exhibition hall presented a vast, unused space that yearned for a vibrant centrepiece during the exhibition. The project aimed to transform this vacant area into more
than just a furniture showroom; it would serve as a meeting point and a restful oasis for visitors during their exploration of the exhibition.
The architect opted for plywood as the primary construction material, a familiar component in furniture manufacturing. This choice allowed for easy recycling and secondary use of the materials once the exhibition concluded. With 821 pieces of market-standard plywood, the construction process adhered to an economical design structure that significantly reduced both construction time and costs.
Furthermore, the architect embraced the ethos of recycling by repurposing the entire building to create 410 sets of tables and chairs for rural communities in the most costeffective manner. By incorporating designs that encouraged interaction and fun, these furniture pieces served to enrich community activities and foster interpersonal relationships within these small rural areas.
Zhixiong Yang, founder of Shanghai Lingke Architectural Design Company (ALK Design), boasts a UK education with Distinction grades and extensive experience at renowned design firms. ALK specialises in luxury residences, innovation headquarters, and industrial communities, earning recognition with foreign design awards. Notably, ALK recently completed an impressive project in Xinhua County, Hunan Province, China.
The project is a high-grade residential development located along the Zijang River, covering an area of 57,300m2 with a total construction area of 236,800m2 . It comprises 10 high-rise residences with double-height gardens, seven high-rise houses with spacious balconies, a community club in the central lot with a stepped garden, and 21 townhouses, the ground floor of which is used for commercial purposes. The design of this project was inspired by
the local landscapes, specifically the terraced landscape. It was created to form a beautiful city skyline and a vivid architectural group by incorporating the image of this famous local landscape. Moreover, the design aimed to differentiate itself from traditional residential projects by providing more natural space both indoors and outdoors.
The facade is modern, and the floor plan is efficient. The volume is fully responsive to urban design guidelines, featuring elegant hanging gardens, whilst the double-height balcony ensures the best views.
One of the significant advantages of the project is its location along the Zijang River. The houses primarily face the river, while the secondary direction is the north hill peak, which provides a mountain backdrop.
This project serves as an excellent example of a residential community that combines urban planning concepts with local landscapes.
