ANNOUNCING A S IA PAC I F IC ’ S B E ST PRO PERT Y PRO FE SS I O N A L S

  of excellence in every respect; that is what our judging panel demands from entries deemed worthy of winning a coveted International Property Award. I think you will agree that, as the first region to be judged in the 2016-2017 awards programme, the Asia Pacific has set an extremely high standard for others to emulate.

There have been several outstanding, multi-award winning entries this year including Parc Priva in Thailand by NYE Estate. Inspired by contemporary Japanese architecture, the property’s layout maximises the openness of living spaces and creates a natural flow throughout. One Avighna Park by Avighna India, a prestigious, eco-conscious high-rise development of twin residential towers in Mumbai has won multiple awards as has Principal Garden in Singapore by UOL and Kheng Leong. Its four residential apartment blocks feature a ‘garden-living’ concept where an extensive landscape occupies 80 per cent of the site. As for retail categories, Imago Mall, a world-class shopping destination in Malaysia by Asian Pac Holdings and the vast, 100-store North West Shopping Centre in New Zealand by the Buchan Group have both gained double awards. While the judges initially seek the most impressive and innovative projects, they also examine each entry in depth to evaluate the sustainability and eco-awareness of every property and development. Interior design projects must be truly outstanding in their concept while at the same time proving comfortable and practical for their required use. As for real estate agency categories, outstanding customer service and a full range of property-related services are vital. They must show that they are able to support and advise clients throughout the entire buying, selling and letting processes. The award-winning companies listed in this publication have proved their expertise in each respective field by competing against consistently strong competition from within the Asia Pacific region. Many congratulations to all and continued success in the future.

  , Aedas is a world leading global architecture and design practice providing architecture, interior, landscape and urban design services. Already a multi-award winning company, Aedas has been successful with a further nine projects. Evergrande Huazhi Office Tower in Chengdu, China is a 185 metre, 36-storey office building inspired by the motion of a Sichuan waterfall. The structure of its façade features successive, overlapping layers with changing angles that express the pattern and movement of a waterfall. Vertical aluminium fins create shadows and highlights, imitating the movement of reflections on water. The glass façade spreads out at the base of the building to become the signature hangover for the drop-off area. This mimics the action of water splashing the bottom of a waterfall. Achieving balance and harmony between form and function, the architectural form of Evergrande Huazhi Office Tower is not simply a modern office tower, it is also an urban sculpture with passion and character. The building is part of the new Evergrande Huazhi Plaza, a mixed-

use development also designed by Aedas, that will become a hub for residential, business, entertainment and shopping in the area. Sina Plaza is Sina Weibo’s Headquarters in Zhongguancun Software Park, China. Following an invited international competition, Aedas was successful in submitting an architectural design that defined the nature of Sina Weibo’s web-based enterprise. The concept was based on ‘limitless’, an idea that reflects the unlimited boundary offered by the web. In order to offer maximum flexibility in planning and adaptation for future changes, the design was modular based on a 1.5 metre grid. The building is 200 metres long and over 90 metres wide, with six levels of offices arranged around two internal, open ‘courtyards’. These bring natural light and cross ventilation to the offices and create a recreational environment for the staff. Vertical circulations and servicing cores are located at the four corners of the building and connected by a central atrium. The internal circulation route resembles the ‘infinity’ sign, which allows users to commute efficiently from each end of the building.

Hengqin Huafa Plaza

Nanning Huanancheng Exhibition Centre

Hengqin Huafa Plaza is in the north-east part of Hengqin Island, China. Due to the special political and economic position of Hengqin, the project demanded an iconic impression from its design. It was decided to introduce the image of a lotus flower into the tower’s façade. This is because it is the city flower of Macau and also represents a beautiful vision of the future of Hengqin. The concept of Hengqin Huafa Plaza is embodied throughout the architecture in both form and function. This design serves to incorporate and extend the area’s charming waterfront elements and customs through its modern commercial architecture. The shaping of a fluid, massing form evokes visitors’ imagination of the sea, while the Hengqin Huafa Plaza introduces a new, dynamic open space to the city. Both inside and externally, it embodies various theme elements such as the Lotus Leaf Canopy; LED waterfall; Sea Theme Performance Stage; and the coastal green park which provides direct access to the sea and an outstanding city view of Macau.

Nanning Huanancheng Exhibition Centre on the outskirts of Nanning, China has been leased by Aedas’ client to a tenant selling furniture. Therefore, the design team created three different concepts, all related to furniture. The client chose the architectural option derived from the abstraction of a folding chair. The use of folding baffles create a series of forms starting with straight baffles on the edge of each corner. These gradually fold to form a canopy guiding visitors into the development. Aedas planned the space to be independent from the applied ornamental façade. This enabled the exhibition centre to form a large shell with flexible functions; the ultimate challenge was to create a skin that was simple in geometry and easy to build. What makes the design unique is that three other retail exhibition buildings along the strip have four sides while Nanning Huanancheng Exhibition Centre features an impressive five.

Main Building of Guangdong Macau Traditional Chinese Medicine Science and Technology Industrial Park

Technology Industrial Park (GMTCM Park) is an emerging development in the Hengqin area of Zhuhai, China. The client envisages the building as an iconic gateway to the GMTCM Park which will create a multidimensional public space. The design brief is for a 68,000m² office tower standing 60 metres tall. It will serve as the client’s headquarters with rentable offices, an exhibition centre, business incubation centre and service centre. Responding to the client’s request, Aedas has integrated ecological and humane working spaces, green roofs and outdoor terraces into the initial design stage. Since the typical office units will be located from floors six to 13, the podium will house many diverse public spaces. This led to creating a coherent form for the top of the building and fragmented shapes at the bottom. 139 NTC National Trade Center in Taichung, Taiwan has a design concept derived from nature in the form of a bamboo shoot. Playing an important role in Chinese culture, bamboo shoots represent uniqueness and

blooming and have a prosperous meaning for the people. Directly next to the new Taichung Opera House, the shape of 139 NTC and the meaning behind its design aim to create a local landmark for the emerging CBD. Unique in terms of its curvaceous shape compared to surrounding buildings, 139 NTC has been designed for the specific culture of Taichung and its residents. Interaction starts on the ground, providing a public space which is both protecting and cooling on warm days while allowing outdoor enjoyment. Aluminium wall panels on the west facing side of the building reduce energy consumption, while the placement of roof gardens means that the design also employs sustainable building strategies. MOKO, previously called New Century Plaza, is situated at Mongkok East, Hong Kong. Being on an upper level, many people tended to pass through the mall without adding benefit to its higher floors. When transforming MOKO, Aedas took a design strategy which used the least to create the most. The mall was finally

completed throughout eight phases over six years while least affecting tenants and income. New elements were injected from nature with the delicate touches of trees, leaves, petals, rivers, clouds and stars to soften the city’s denseness. The approved design has given the outdated shopping mall an entirely new look and feel. Aedas’ strategy to extend the atrium void has not only enhanced the sense of direction but also directed the pedestrian flow to every part of the mall, bring higher commercial value to the development. The St Regis Chengdu is a luxurious, 45,000m² hotel in Sichuan Province, China. Its architecture harmoniously complements Chengdu, the ‘Land of Abundance’. The curved terraces and outdoor swimming pool imitate the natural landscape in Huang Long, a scenic spot known for its colourful pools formed by calcite deposits. Aedas has also integrated the city’s indigenous outdoor lifestyle into the hotel’s design. Extra emphasis is placed on the creation of outdoor spaces and all restaurants and bars are extended outside for al fresco dining.

The hotel’s 279 luxuriously appointed guestrooms and suites are artfully designed to blend the Art Deco style with traditional elements of Sichuan culture. While also incorporating discreet state-of-the-art technology, the finalised design for St Regis achieves a balance and harmony between form and function. Aedas’ Hotel Development in Sai Kung, Hong Kong, comprises 250 rooms, associated banquet facilities and a chapel. The project brief called for a design that was both iconic yet in harmony with its natural waterfront surroundings. During the course of the design, the orientation of the rooms facing the hillside was revised to provide better views. The chapel was also relocated so that it is more prominent to human traffic from the Sai Kung town centre. The development consists of three blocks to break down the otherwise bulky building mass into a more appropriate scale. The three-storey hotel rooms’ arrangement is also in harmony with the buildings in the neighbourhood and the low-rise context of the Sai Kung district.

 H  the second phase of Vinhomes Times City which is situated on the south-eastern gateway of the capital, Hanoi City. It is destined to be one of Vietnam’s most desirable urban communities and covers an area of over 7.4 hectares. Park Hill follows Times City’s master concept which includes a main central road, perpendicular second alleys and several condominium buildings. Nevertheless, over 70% of the project’s area is reserved for landscaping. Believing that landscaping is more than just scenery, the talented team of architects at Park Hill have created a living space in which humans and the environment have a truly interactive relationship. The superiority of Park Hill’s design lies in Vinhomes’ intent to integrate nature into the living spaces. Thus, the entire area will be covered by diversified species of flora featuring a number of specific highlights. These include the

iconic clock tower, panoramic green hill, huge splash park, various water features and modern outdoor and indoor swimming pools. Dispersed in between the buildings are recreational areas, sports facilities and children’s playgrounds amongst intimate gardens and quiet relaxation areas. All the surrounding areas are designed with paved walkways where pedestrians will be protected from harsh sunlight by a wide selection of planted shady trees. A 15-metre high green wall near the barbecue garden and a ‘soft wall’ of linear trees will create a truly green feeling for the development. By incorporating soothing water features and green spaces with modern architecture, Vinhomes Times City – Park Hill will become a distinctly vibrant environment for its occupants to enjoy a world-class modern lifestyle that is second to none in South East Asia.

 D W G together with the Ridong Group have formed a partnership to create “Jewel” – the largest mixed-use development in Australia. The $1 billion plus “Jewel” development at Surfers Paradise is proving one of the most talked-about developments on the Gold Coast for many years. For the first time ever there will be the opportunity to live on Australia’s world famous Gold Coast beachfront enjoying superb five-star Wanda Vista resort luxury. Soaring to an exalted 170 metres high, “Jewel’s” three crystalline towers are designed to appear as if they have simply emerged from the sands below. A geometric, almost miragelike façade that will stand as a beacon for maritime traffic on the Nerang River and out to sea – the “Jewel” development is destined to join the likes of Dubai’s Burj Al Arab or

Iran’s Flower of the East as an illustrious piece of contextual architecture. Joint venture partners Wanda Ridong knew that only the most remarkable and avant-garde structure could befit the rare 1.13 hectare parcel of beachfront land. This is due to its extraordinary 130 metre beach frontage and supreme location, where the energy and bustle of Surfers Paradise met up with the urbane restaurant and dining culture of Broadbeach. The initial design narrative became a collaboration between renowned Florida architect Chad Oppenheim and International award-winning, Gold Coast DBI Design director of design Barry Lee – both captivating raconteurs whose story-telling abilities and creative genes are inextricably linked. To look forward, the pair first looked back – 160 million years to be precise – to when the

entire region was the heart of the largest shield volcano to ever exist on the face of the earth – Mount Warning. Its volcanic forces created a foundation of solid basalt which now lies around 40 metres below the sand. As volcanic rock cools it forms geometric structures such as the iconic Gold Coast and Northern Rivers Headlands. If the volcanic material cools slowly beautiful delicate crystal structures form. After tracking down three of these unique and beautiful smoky quartz crystals, the design for the “Jewel” development began to take shape – with the practices even scanning the crystals in 3D at one point to ensure the closest resemblance. The two architectural teams kept the adjustments to a minimum, gently manipulating the scale to fit the program, and only modifying the angles slightly to maintain its practicality.

The addition of an extravagant outdoor podium to emulate a lush, tropical oasis, and complemented by soaring, open-air crystal corridors, only intensifies this connection. Lavishly-appointed apartments will be graced with timber or natural stone flooring and kitchens and bathrooms featuring beautiful marble and onyx surfaces. These will be offset with sophisticated tapware, basins and fittings designed exclusively for “Jewel”. Each opulent sky high home enjoys privileged access to private pools, bars and restaurants and exclusive concierge services. Towering over sand and surf, the majestic crystal triptych will enrich Australia’s Gold Coast when completed in 2019, positioning it as a beacon for luxury property development across the world.

Therefore, a new type of office workplace model and design was required.

In the past, each office staff member usually had a fixed working station. However, this kind of workplace model fails to cater for the industry’s development. Hence, a free seating working system with limited fixed seats for admin, HR and finance staff was proposed for nearly all staff. The spatial efficiency under this arrangement can increase significantly by up to 150 – 200%. Under this design layout, some surplus spaces are dedicated to various public areas like breakout areas, project rooms and telephone booths which can be given a unique design character. The brief was to accommodate around 100 workplaces for 150-200 staff with ancillary functions such as a reception, meeting rooms, phone booths, a pantry and storeroom. While the functional requirement of the office is quite simple and straightforward, the building is a long, slightly bent, rectangular shape with its entrance at one end. Such a layout involves

the use of a long corridor and this presented a challenge to ensure efficient spatial planning. Besides focusing on the flexibility and cost efficiency, the office design needed to develop a tool for strengthening the brand on a broader base by maintaining a high design profile. The corporate brand therefore permeates every aspect of the building’s interiors, not solely the reception, but also the canteen, meeting room and internal office. It not only displays the energetic and dynamic atmosphere of the ABB office, it also serves to highlight the company’s characteristic lively and modern image. As the office reception is the first area to be encountered, it must present a clear picture of the company’s corporate identity. A large image showing ABB’s achievement in the energy saving industry is therefore elected as the backdrop for the reception counter to anchor a visual impact to all visitors.

The whole office working area is divided into two zones – mobile and fixed. Mobile workstations, which form the majority components, are located at the front area while fixed workstations are at the inner zone of the office. This proves to be the most convenient layout solution for staff and also ensures privacy for the admin and finance division. Multiplicities of spatial structures including individual, group and open-scheme office and multi-purpose areas work together in a variety of methods, arranged in a flexible configuration. Colours are used to project a vivid ambience throughout the workspace. Vibrant, warm tonal hues such as red, blue, green and lime enhance the spatial quality and create a high-energy feel. Other than these bright colours, the overall office is composed of a neutral tone of monochrome with a white wall and grey carpet.

DPWT’s second award-winning project involved the interior design of Teleperformance Nanning Office. It is a prerequisite condition for new offices nowadays to be functional and efficient, delivering high productivity. However, besides these practical considerations, a working environment that promotes wellness should also be a very important issue in the design manifestation process. The balance of practicality and creativity is important in establishing a working model for offices in this epoch. Such a design concept has been created for Teleperformance’s new call centre office. This multinational company offers CRM call centre service to renowned firms all over the world. It has offices across 50 countries and serves more than 1,000 clients. The 4,000m² whole floor call centre is planned to accommodate more than 500 call agents’ workstations. The entire design

is divided into six minor areas – the reception, call agent open production floor, training rooms and related facilities, an interview area with lobby, executive management area and leisure/support area. These complex requirements call for very profound functional planning and spatial organisation. Due to the fact that there are a lot of different functions and various types of users such as call agents, management staff, external trainees and interviewees, an extremely well planned circulation with traffic flow and security control was highly essential. This serves to maintain the surveillance of the whole premises. Besides these practical considerations, the articulated design of leisure areas such as the breakout space and canteen are highlights of this forward thinking office. It is acknowledged that communication is the most important organisational aspect

for todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new offices. Although individual work can be executed anywhere, the exchange of information and know-how remain an essential means of finding solutions to complicated problems and learning new knowledge. Collective intelligence and enthusiasm can be promoted by establishing an environment that promotes private space and creates a positive and pleasant atmosphere. With this in mind, the Lab is located at the central core in the agent office. It is a place where staff can meet and chat and it helps to encourage social integration between the call agents. Short, spontaneous discussion can also be carried out at the breakout area which provides a relaxed and inviting environment. The entire office is designed in a modern, yet colourful tone to deliver a relaxed yet highly efficient working environment.

Extensive use of red spray painted glass has been used in the white marble reception area to convey a professional, contemporary image to visitors. In the canteen area, vibrant colours enhance the spatial quality and create a high-energy feel. The pendant lighting provides a relaxing and energetic ambience which can stimulate the working momentum and thus increase productivity. The breakout area has an airy ceiling and is filled with natural daylight through its two window wall. Bar tables are arranged along the window side so that staff can sit and enjoy the view while having a coffee or their lunch. Graphics of tree images are posted on the two other walls to imprint a vision of natural scenery and the countryside. Perforated bubble lighting fixtures of varying sizes are hung from the ceiling to foster a modern and elegant look to this spacious area.

Today, with many firsts to their credit, the real estate group has built a strong and favourable reputation for innovation, cutting edge technology, and integrity by combining its commitment and work ethic with the simple concept of being attentive and responsive to customers’ needs. The company has successfully delivered over 14.5 million square feet of prime real estate, with 20 million square feet under development across multiasset classes. The company’s award-winning portfolio of projects spans across high-end residential developments, IT parks, built-to-suit office spaces, special economic zones (SEZ), hotels, convention centres and luxury retail malls – notable of these are India’s first Trump branded residences – Trump Towers Pune, and yoopune by Philippe Starck and John Hitchcox, EON Free Zone in Kharadi – a 6.5

million square feet IT & IT-eS SEZ spread over 57 acres, the International Convention Centre – South Asia’s largest trade and convention centre, World Trade Center Pune, and an award-winning built-to-suit office campus for Cummins India amongst others. Panchshil Realty has been a pioneer; a game-changer in the world of business and real estate. The urge to put Pune on the international business map has been a driving factor at Panchshil, towards developing intelligent and world-class work spaces that foster global business. These in turn have redefined the manner in which businesses are carried out in India. A case in point is Business Bay – a mixeduse development, spread over 14 acres and strategically located on Airport Road in Pune. A recipient of the prestigious Asia Pacific Property Awards (2014-15) for Highly Commended Mixed-Use Development India, Business Bay is designed to provide a vibrant work-shop-liveplay environment to its corporate occupants;

with high-end retail and a luxury hotel, The RitzCarlton within its premises. The modern work spaces created by Panchshil, within Business Bay like that of BMC Software are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also offer a host of benefits that are vital to retaining millennial workers who are looking for companies that offer a rich and immersive experience at work. BMC Software offers employees creative and colourful work spaces that have been designed to foster flexibility, collaboration, and creativity. Daniel Hsia of H* Architects based in Singapore, the principal architect of the team that worked on the BMC Software office designed it to be an agile workplace where employees are free to walk around. The architect along with Panchshil Realty worked through a multitude of iterations on layouts of this project in an effort to strike a balance between personal spaces as well as collaborative spaces within the office environment.

The overall work space has been planned to support a broad diversity of social exchanges. The design provides for a variety of locations where accidental ‘collisions’ between people can occur, and spaces to support various types of individual and group interactions. ‘Collaboration capsules’, which are multipurpose pods’ are interspersed through the office so that employees may come together for impromptu brainstorming sessions. While most meeting rooms today support leader-led presentation where the information can be controlled by one person at a time, these dynamic spaces that seat six to eight people allow for participants to access and share information equally and seamlessly – thus elevating the role of content sharing while making meetings more inclusive and productive. The BMC Software smart office is also fitted with provisions for when individuals need some quiet time. When needed, employees can find secluded

The focus in creating ‘The Office of the Future’ was on creating an environment where each individual can do their best and that is done by affording them the freedom to work as they see fit. The agile design approach also fosters a culture of trust within the organisation which further strengthens a positive work attitude and stronger morale. With the paradigms of success in business forever shifting in our highly competitive global world, Panchshil has over the years not just mastered the expertise in customised interior fit-outs for its innumerable IT and corporate clients, but also of facility management and asset management. Finetuned to internationally accepted standards,

Panchshil projects are carefully planned around the fundamentals of time, cost, and superlative quality. It is this very drive of the company that has compelled it to expand its horizons, to include the financial heartbeat of the country – Mumbai. In a bid to collaborate with only the best that the world has to offer, Panchshil along with international PE major Blackstone has taken its global foresight to the city of Mumbai, with the acquisition of the iconic Express Towers at Nariman Point. Built in 1972, Express Towers was planned and constructed with a vision to be the most modern building of its kind in India, and was commissioned by the Late Ramnath Goenka, the founder of the Express Group. For over four decades, Express Towers has been one of the most iconic skyscrapers on the Mumbai skyline, comprising of 25 floors of sea-view and city-facing office spaces. The building is also iconic because this is the only high-rise

building that was designed by famed American architect Joseph Allen Stein. Stein’s designs and work encapsulate his philosophy – urban needs balanced with natural features. Under the guardianship of the new owners Panchshil and Blackstone, Express Towers is in the midst of being given a state-of-the-art facelift; upgrades to the building utilities as well as the services and amenities that will ensure that the building lives up to the highest quality standards that are synonymous with brand Panchshil. Advanced system-driven technology has enabled the execution of these upgrades on a scale exemplifying modernity combined with ecological consciousness. Express Towers is one of the first commercial buildings in India to undergo a complete makeover from the inside and the outside, without disturbing the original structure, or inconveniencing the 3,000 odd occupants. Making the building relevant

to the business cultures of the 21st century has involved contemporising the façade of the building and enhancing the structure to reduce its environmental impact, thus making it more sustainable. In line with this, Express Towers has also been registered for LEED Certification under the category of ‘Existing Buildings O&M – version 4’, for the Green Building provisions of Light, Climate Control, Water, Glazing, and Recycling. The current transformation of the building has been undertaken in line with the architectural form and aesthetics, without disturbing the original vision of its legendary architect. Far-sighted investments in research, development and training have over time enabled Panchshil to usher in not just the best construction practices, but also the world’s best brands, along the way setting new standards in business and raising the bar with every accolade received.

The firm’s portfolio is comprised of projects located in prestigious property developments in Singapore and beyond with an impressive list of awards that speaks for itself. With the interior of its own Prestige Global Designs Showroom, the company had to ensure that it reflected the achievements of a team responsible for the interiors of some of the most expensive residences in SouthEast Asia. This elongated office in the city state’s prime River Valley district is especially important as clients discuss designs here and must be made to feel that they are stepping inside one of the world’s finest hotels. Prestige Global Designs wanted to create a space that was at once classical yet contemporary and which exuded an aura of authority reminiscent of the firm’s wealthy

clientele. Maintaining the original layout of the office, it was transformed into an elongated marble catwalk of luxury. A mirrored ceiling runs the length of the catwalk, conjuring the perception of additional depth and space. Hermes wallpaper was featured on one side while contemporary walls with handsome wood veneer were installed on the other. A perfect blend of contemporary furniture and classical lighting, antiques and decorations were then used to accessorise the showroom to great effect. Poets Villas is a 3,251 square foot, fourstorey landed property in Upper Thomson, Singapore. Surrounded by lush greenery, it is close to the city state’s tranquil Pierce Reservoir. The verdant setting of this property became the key inspiration so that the clients could enjoy a sanctuary where sophisticated style meets luxury living.

thus work done to the interior was extensive. Walls were hacked, the layout of the property was reconfigured, ceilings and furnishings were rethought and indirect LED lighting, decorative lights and chandeliers were introduced to resemble a modern, luxury hotel. Major adjustments included constructing a new kitchen in place of the single ground floor bedroom and introducing a striking new LED-lit stainless steel and glass staircase. Grey tones and neutral shades were used throughout the property to create an unmistakable aura of timelessness. Finally, high-end furniture and furnishings were added from prestige brands such as Poltrona Frau, Lalique and Bocci to continue the ultra-luxurious feel throughout every living space. The Dharmawangsa Residences II is a luxurious condominium comprising two towers inside the compound of the fivestar Dharmawangsa Hotel in South Jakarta.

Accessed by private lift, the apartment has a single-storey layout with three bedrooms, a study, gourmet kitchen, wet kitchen and spacious living and dining areas. Prestige Global Designs was commissioned to transform this 3,500 square foot apartment into a contemporary, classical, yet forwardthinking paradigm of design. Inspired by the beautiful stately homes seen in London, the main design intent was to create a luxurious and lasting comfortable interior in which to live. As the client did not want any walls to be hacked, Prestige Global Designs cleverly created a rare architrave to separate the living and dining areas while increasing the functionality of these areas. Consistent with the contemporary classical theme, satin white was the dominant colour used throughout the apartment on the wall panels, rugs and furnishings with touches of taupe and brown to reflect a refined yet luxurious atmosphere.

The XXXIX in Sukhumvit, Bangkok is a high-end condominium that is outstanding in its modern design, whilst maintaining a sense of timelessness with its classical contemporary appeal.

All this sets the project apart from all its competitors, making it akin to being a new landmark for the city. Narasiri Banga is a detached house in Bang Na, Bangkok. Since the project is situated in a main artery of transport in a commercial district with many shopping centres, its architecture had to reflect the area’s affluence. The property’s ‘American Luxury’ style is outstanding with beautifully structured architectural details, such as a dome style roof, light flowing through rose windows and natural rocks covering the façade area. All of these elements reflect the class of its luxury design and add a more homely atmosphere to the house. The Deck is a residential development ideally located at Patong Beach, one of the

The Deck’s design was therefore geared towards these types of users with ample light and ventilation and a large cantilevered balcony for outdoor lifestyle in every unit. The axis of the buildings is parallel along the site and points towards the Andaman Sea. A rooftop infinity swimming pool faces the sea giving users fabulous views, while a second pool at ground level is surrounded by landscaping. Town Avenue 60’s custom design, The Motorbike Garage House, is a loft-style, three-storey townhouse in Vibhavadi, Bangkok. Considering the design concept and homeowner’s need for continuous space, the standard layout of this townhouse has been modified. Walls have been removed and each

area is designated a new function to tailor to the homeowner’s needs. Additionally, good lighting and ventilation, for which most townhouses are not known, have become a priority in the design. The two-storey clubhouse of Setthasiri Ratchaphruek-Charan exudes the essence of a traditional riverside Thai residence. The steep gable roof with its supporting brackets has been turned into triangular steel frames that serve as the main supporting structure of the building, spanning from the roof to the walls. Inside, the split-level, 400m² interior creates open-concept spaces – much like a waterside gazebo – that offer a view of the surrounding luxuriant garden, pool and pond. Containing a lounge, gym, office and locker rooms, the clubhouse is an exemplary fusion of modern construction technology and Thai carpentry folk wisdom.

Heralded by BCI Asia as being within the Top 10 architectural firms in the Philippines in 2005 and consecutively from 2012 to 2015, the company is committed to design, build and develop structures and communities that move, inspire and stimulate society. Wanakasa (meaning Forest in the Mist, taken from a Balinese legend) is a vacation house heavily inspired by its owners’ fascination of Balinese architecture and interior design. It occupies 12,000m² of rolling terrain leading to a steep ravine and stream which also functions as a rain canal. The property is made up of five pavilions connected by bridges, an atrium and fish ponds. An infinity swimming

pool, shower and pump rooms have been ideally located near the ravine. Preserving the natural environment was a major factor in ECT+A’s conceptualisation of the project as the clients, a couple and their three children, wanted a natural retreat. They also wanted to follow the Balinese philosophy of being ‘in harmony with the laws of the cosmos’. Hierarchy and zoning play an important role in the design of Balinese residential houses. It is used as a security and planning concept for the spaces. The site was divided into two distinct zones: the buffer zone and the main building area. The buffer zone acts as a security filter as well as a spatial divider by separating the main house space from noise, pollution and visual connection from the road. Walls were kept to the minimum to create an indoor-outdoor

It is aimed at delivering a high quality working environment for a range of small to medium sized businesses which corresponds to approximately 69% of

the space. The brutalism architecture of the building projects a bold image of a businesslike professionalism, order and solidarity. It features a striking concrete surface on the façade and for various interior treatments. This shows the true beauty and stability of concrete and also echoes the company’s determination to provide quality engineering. Metal structural elements conjoin the raw concrete surface providing a strong contrast in material, colour and texture. The MCC Headquarters includes a green deck that serves as insulation and features a low energy and high performance building envelope with an excellent indoor environmental quality. Setting a leading example, the project obtained LEED Gold Certification from the Green Building Council in 2011.

structure and define its value. They carry not only aesthetic function, but also influence the commercial success of the project. A new façade can transform and revitalise an existing building; it gives new life to the surrounding architecture and structures, by presenting a completely different perspective. Interior Services’ façade solutions combine both modernity and cultural values. With the help of materials and architectural ingenuity, the company is able to achieve a unique look for buildings that distinguish them on the cityscape. Media Centre, Interior Service’s awardwinning project in Baku, proved to be one of the company’s most challenging but favourite ventures. It was both difficult in technical terms as well as bearing no resemblance in

style to any other building in the city. The project has been carried out in a distinctly vintage style with loft elements to enhance its overall appearance. The building resembles an end of the 19th century/early 20th century factory. This is due to its aged red bricks which feature on many architectural elements on its façade, metalwork with rivets and wrought iron features. Both the facades and interiors of the building have been designed to follow the same style. The highlight of the project is a glass atrium between the two sections of the building which appears to cut the interior in half. Its transparent glazing allows a clear view from one section to another and is enhanced by a massive metal bridge crossing its width in the form of the base of the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris.

Based in George Town, the state capital of Penang, Ivory Properties has carved out a niche and reputation by successfully reviving abandoned projects. Its portfolio includes medium to high-end apartments, luxury condominiums and boutiquegated communities, along with retail and commercial premises. Ivory Properties is a public-listed company that prides itself on creating bold innovative designs, fresh lifestyle concepts and quality craftsmanship while offering high-class customer service. One reason why the business continues to grow is down to its flexible approach when responding to market forces.

This has helped it to build a loyal following among property purchasers all over the world. And you will go a long way to discover a development as futuristic in design – inside or out – as the Ivory Tower at Penang’s Times Square. The Tower can be found close to the north-east tip of Penang Island, which sits just off the north-west coast of mainland Malaysia and around 350km north of the country’s capital Kuala Lumpur. The Tower is a three-storey office block that became the headquarters of the Ivory Properties Group when the building opened in February 2014. It caters for around 250 employees and is a vision of the future Malaysian style. The surrounding area is well-served by road links, not to mention restaurants, banks, hair salons and many other retail outlets.

Underneath the Tower’s three floors of office space are areas for parking, along with a shopping mall that occupies four levels of its own. The building’s unique façade uses prefabricated steel to create a stunning design that is one-third glass, one-third wire, and onethird open. Coloured panels create an ivoryeffect that is particularly dramatic in the evening when it becomes illuminated by LED lighting. However, these panels are more than simply decoration. They are also functional and assist energy conservation reducing both glare from the sun and electricity consumption. Among the Tower’s most original features are its meeting pods that are circular glass panelled units that hang down from the ceiling and can hold around eight to 10 people, as well as chairs and tables. From inside one of these ingenious capsules, you can look down on the entire floor level.

The Tower’s innovative design includes a number of balconies where employees can take a glimpse of the outside world when in desperate need of a short break. And at the top of the building, a landscaped roof garden allows employees to take a lunchtime stroll or grab a bite to eat while enjoying a view of Penang. The Tower represents phase two of Ivory Properties’ Penang Times Square development which the company describes as being a new age urban centre and a public square to match any on the planet. When finished, Penang Times Square will occupy more than one million square feet, with cinemas, hotels and numerous retail outlets being added to the site. Ivory Properties expects the entire five-stage project to be completed by 2020.

The Wuhan International Education Center is a new campus shared jointly by two international schools, each providing a pre-k through 12 education program to the foreign expat community. The 45 mu site is planned to accommodate the needs of the Wuhan Yangtze International School, offering an American-based curriculum for approximately 600 students, and the Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Ecole Francaise Internationale de Wuhan, offering a French-based curriculum to approximately 300 students. The campus sets up a dialogue between the two independent school entities, encouraging interaction between students and teachers, as well as promoting joint use while providing each school with its own sense of identity and autonomy within the larger whole.

Exterior sports and outdoor activity space are maximised by the discrete programming of shared community and independent school functions. Academics, administration and dining functions for each school are housed separately in distinct learning pavilions, while indoor sports and performing arts are combined into one main shared community building which addresses the street and is the public face of the campus. The pavilions are organised around a central courtyard or piazza and sited for optimal solar and wind orientation. Shared by the entire campus, the piazza is central to the daily activity of the students and school community. The Wuhan government sponsored project showcases sustainable strategies which focus on energy efficiency including: a ground source heat pump system, aluminum sun screens, sunshades, light shelves for daylighting, insulated fritted low e-glazing for thermal control and landscape materials to reduce heat island effect and reduce rain water run-off.

Ativo Plaza is the first phase of Damansara Avenue, a new 48-acre suburb on the periphery of Kuala Lumpur being developed by TA Properties Sdn Bhd. Occupying 5.73 acres, a generous 2.67 acres is dedicated to civic and landscape space. Walrus was commissioned by TA Properties to create a vibrant, civic

environment in the form of a well-planted, active and walkable central plaza at the centre of the development. The design was required to complement adjacent food and beverage outlets set in ground floor podium units. The concept of a ‘sculpted’ folded landscape is inspired by primary elements: wind, water, wood, stone, steel, leaf and life. Taking the articulated and fragmented form of the building footprint as a reference, Walrus echoed and abstracted the landscape as a semi-organic, fragmented design pattern. It forms a series of plate-like planes, extending from boundary to boundary through the site, allowing the building to rest within a greater plaza. The entire effect removes traffic dominance and pedestrians are safely cocooned within the plaza by planting and bollards.

The Tropicana Aman Sales Gallery is a model and prototype for the forthcoming, larger scale project and Walrus Design is also designing and implementing the future Tropicana Aman Central Park. The sales

gallery is a temporary building with an anticipated five to eight year lifespan. While delivering a dramatic setting for the sales gallery, the 15-acre site is also intended to recreate all central park landscape elements as they will look on eventual completion of the entire site. This will serve to portray an accurate view of what future buyers/residents can expect to experience. Setting the building behind a lake, allowed it to nestle within a natural setting filled with stunning reflective views. A footpath meanders as it rises and falls, following a barrier free route encircling the lake and connecting all landscape features. Throughout this journey, visitors may experience the bridges, park furniture, pavilions and natural riparian landscape that will feature within the parkland core of the new township.

Balmoral Apartment

 I  a multiaward winning, Singapore-based design studio. Its team comprises interior designers, architects, stylists, interior architects and project managers – each bringing their own unique experience and ensuring projects reflect a global perspective. It believes that good design improves quality of life, affects mood and invokes a sense of well-being. The business was the brain-child of British national Nikki Hunt who moved to Asia in 1990 following brief stints in Hong Kong and Jakarta. She eventually settled in Singapore where she founded Design Intervention 12 years ago. Her business partner, Andrea Savage, spent many of her early years in Kenya and Australia, and went on to study interior design in London. She moved to Singapore in 2000, joining Design Intervention 11 years later and became a partner soon after.

The company’s mission is to enhance the lives of its clients by creating homes that are uniquely tailored to their lifestyle, aspirations and personalities. Thanks to a team of 24 experts, Design Intervention is no stranger to changing lives forever. Four such successful projects are The Modern Chinoiserie House, Balmoral Apartment, Mount Faber Apartment and its very own Design Intervention Studio in Tanglin Village. The Modern Chinoiserie House is a twostorey property belonging to a Singaporean couple with four children. Every room in the house has a feel all of its own, with individual attention lavished on each single item within the property, whether it be a bronze leather stool or bistro table. While some rooms such as the kitchen are necessarily clinical, though nonetheless stunning, other areas primarily designed for periods of relaxation are a multicolourful mix of soft furnishings.

The Modern Chinoiserie House

Intervention shaped all areas of the fourbedroom house, along with four bathrooms, a master study, a children’s study and a sizeable family lounge. Equally remarkable in quality is Mount Faber Apartment, another Singapore residence. Once again, Design Intervention pushed the boundaries of its own creativity to produce another top quality product. Compared to the interior design at The Modern Chinoiserie House, Mount Faber has certainly a more modern feel and appearance, though no less homely. Mount Faber is also on two levels: Downstairs is glossy, smooth and polished, while the three bedrooms and upstairs study possess a softer and calmer ambience. More than 6,000km from Singapore, and with a three-hour time difference, is the Balmoral Apartment in New South Wales, Australia. On the outskirts of Sydney, and

close to Balmoral Beach, this deluxe residence is another brilliantly designed property where east was commissioned to meet west. The clients, a retired couple who have lived in the area for more than 20 years, purchased this apartment that is large enough to cater for their growing number of grandchildren. The brief was to inject a touch of Asia and, once again, Design Intervention delivered another exotic habitat. Possibly the highlight of the entire experience is the wonderful outdoor terrace high above Sydney’s Middle Harbour which combines soft chairs, sensible tables and cultivated shrubbery. Finally, back in Singapore, is Design Intervention’s own single floor studio that was once a British Army barracks in colonial days. However, it is now a mixture of hi-tech clinical workspaces and areas of soft fabrics and furnishing where some of the more relaxed company meetings can be staged.

Bordier et Cie

D,   , is a multidiscipline interior design company. While specialising in workplace design, the talented team has the intuition and expertise to cross-transfer functional user experience exigencies into other categorical design applications. These include retail, show home, private residence and hospitality. Having designed and built Bordier et Cie’s award-winning Singapore office in 2011, ID21 has once again formulated a brand new interior design concept for the well-established Swiss private banking firm to mark the significant evolution of its corporate branding. The result is a reformed interior language that combines design, art, technology and cutting-edge leadership. Evrard Bordier, the CEO of Bordier et Cie in Asia, is the fifth generation stalwart of the firm. While history and legacy are very much the DNA of its existence and image, he is never one to rest on the laurels of tradition. Hence, ID21

used modern interior design principles to apply Evrard’s ideology of ‘the new private bank’ as one where transparency is the new norm. The chosen design interpretation was deemed to be the closest to driving the vision and organisational strategies of a new generation private bank. Those of a boutique firm that believes in having transparency connect its global clients with a multi-channel group of mobile employees. There are less than 40 people working in this 12,315 square feet space and this was intentional: space and spatial options free people to reflect and work at their optimum. A harmony of yin and yang exists with calming sand-hued tones and ripple silhouettes in the client areas, while a generous use of illuminating white was reserved for the back office. Synergised design concepts distinctly exudes the well-defined values of Bordier et Cie where transparent partnerships is the foundation of all long-term relationships, bringing a visionary leader’s ideals to life.

Country Garden

ID21 was commissioned to create an interior design for a retail gallery to sell Country Garden, one of China’s largest residential real estate developers, in the city. Although Singapore’s central business district is synonymous with steely skyscrapers, it is also Country Garden’s choice of location to set up its first retail gallery outside of mainland China. Right from the start, ID21 was determined to convince the client that this double-storey, boulevard-facing unit should espouse the voice of a formidable Asian/ nature-centric brand while not looking contrived within its urban surrounds. From a functional perspective, the key challenge was to develop a retail gallery that is agile enough to house two showflat configurations on the upper floor as well as accommodate public presentations, sales

training and various forms of small to large group events. Country Garden chose a conceptual form that had a harmonised balance of feminine and masculine forms that represented its customer demographics. Based on a study of the company’s market segmentation, this approach would favour a new generation of residential buyers – a collective force – that appreciates the allure of organic silhouettes against sturdy architectural lines. Ultimately, the key highlight of this project was not so much the final product but embracing cross-cultural diversity along a multi-tiered customer journey of discovery, development and co-creation. Hence, the plethora of ‘natural and futuristic’ design elements were specifically curated to create a dynamic user experience of wanderlust, adventure and resolution.

Situated in the north-west of Melbourne, Australia, the multi-award winning Pasco project has caused a stir in the locality for all the right reasons. While apartment living was foreign to many local residents, proximity to the city and local amenities indicated the project’s hidden potential. The resulting response by Point Architects is a residential development of 139 spacious and highly luxurious apartments. The Pasco spans perfectly across four buildings and three levels (plus underground parking) on 7,500m² of land. What’s more, Better Living Group has dedicated a vast 2,000m² of this

Assembly Branding was appointed in late 2013 to deliver a brand positioning campaign and media strategy to optimise exposure, generate leads and convert into sales in an untested market. Above all of its many attributes, The Pasco had one compelling point of difference – it was designed for local residents, by a local developer and local builder. This became the central focus of the campaign, bringing genuine care and understanding to the project.

’  is to be recognised globally as the #1 service oriented real estate brand. Established in 1985, Solitaire is a leadership driven enterprise that prides itself in delivering customer satisfaction through transparent transaction and quality construction. Over the last four decades, it has delivered 53+ projects across both residential and commercial verticals. However, the focus in 2016 has been on grade-A commercial spaces. The unmet demand for commercial real estate in Pune sparked the idea of a one of a kind seven acre commercial campus in the heart of Pune’s C.B.D. (Central Business District). To make this a perfect platform for businesses of different sizes, Solitaire conceptualised fully finished and fully serviced, rightly sized office spaces under its commercial real estate brand name – Solitaire Business Hub. But that wasn’t enough. The unanswered question in the commercial real estate space has always been ‘what makes a business thrive?’ And the real estate organisation found an answer in a combination of globally benchmarked infrastructure

and business support services called IBE ie Integrated Business Ecosystem. The growth of office real estate in India has been driven largely by the service sector, especially IT, ITeS, consulting and e-commerce. When Solitaire landed an opportunity in Yerwada – a prime central location in Pune’s commercial business district, developing a large commercial campus made perfect sense from a demand-supply perspective. A location that is stone’s throw away from the airport, golf course, corporate hubs, iconic retail and hospitality brands, Yerwada boasts a thriving neighbourhood. The team at Solitaire extensively studied organic commercial districts and businesses in Pune to arrive at three factors that can help businesses build a global competitive edge with their MNC peers. These factors are client experience, business support infrastructure and talent. Another insight mined by this study was the fact that for small to mid-sized businesses, investing in commercial real estate is best when the area-in-use is optimised. At Solitaire Business Hub, office spaces range between 600-5,000 square feet and

they come along with on demand access to over 40,000 square feet of business support amenities like meeting rooms, conference rooms, boardrooms, training rooms and AV rooms. These amenities will be operationalised and managed by IBE (Integrated Business Ecosystem) on a pay as you go basis. The team at IBE is focused on maximizing RoI for investors through leasing and for occupiers through services. Solitaire Business Hub welcomes you with a 40 feet tall grand entrance lobby occupying a total of 8,000 square feet at the foot of the tallest structure in the vicinity. Innovative traffic management technology coupled by availability of two levels of basement car parks ensures ample convenience for the occupiers. Client experience is optimised by IBE with services like valet parking; reception and concierge add to this a host of over 20 business support services like 24/7 wi-fi, business concierge and round-the-clock housekeeping thereby maximising return on investment for each occupier. Apart from infrastructure and services, Solitaire Business Hub aims to be a

destination driver for talent. At Solitaire Business Hub basic facilities such as ATMs, cafeterias, food courts and restaurants come along with evolved facilities like a gym, meditation gardens and walking tracks. Businesses get the right platform to match their employment brand. Business growth in urban areas coupled with the surge in funded start-ups in India will continue to push the demand for commercial real estate. However a change in consumer preference is also evident, with the market witnessing an inclination towards smaller and fully serviced workspaces with benefits of a large Grade-A commercial campus. There is also a notable change in the investor groupmid management level millennial generation is viewing commercial real estate as a more attractive investment opportunity. In a campus set up combined with fully finished and fully serviced workspaces, this yield is most likely to be better than the market. All signs point to the fact that a new format like Solitaire Business Hub combined with IBE is ushering in a new standard for businesses operating in an age of rapid urbanisation.

CC   a long way since starting out as a small-scale housing property developer in 1983. From humble, local beginnings in Muar, KCC is now one of south Malaysia’s leading companies with ambitions to expand further north. The company has branched out into other areas such as quarrying, with the aim of becoming self-sufficient while continuing to provide value-for-money housing and beautiful homes for thousands of Malaysian residents. KCC’s mantra is to combine cosy, highquality homes for its customers, with enhancing the security and aesthetics of the community environment. And the company has no intention of letting the grass grow under its feet, as it seeks to scale even greater heights in the years to come with the aim of

being recognised as a reputable, reliable and preferred housing developer. One such stunning development is Verge 32 at Melawati, a town in the Ulu Klang district of Gombak, Selangor, and around 16km from the centre of Kuala Lumpur. Perched on a hilly terrain, offering majestic vistas of Kemensah’s ridgeline, Verge 32 is a tranquil residential masterpiece surrounded by low-density, exclusive residential communities. The complex has 32 homes of varying sizes: There are 12 two-storey properties and 20 threestorey homes. Ten of the two-storey buildings are semi-detached, as are 16 of the three-storey ones. The other six houses – which KCC refer to as bungalows – all have their own private gardens and two have private pools, while Verge 32 is situated close to a number of schools and shopping centres, as well as the local hospital.

The development’s layout is divided into four key rows, each alternating between two and three-storey homes. This was done to prevent the two-storey premises from being obstructed by the taller buildings. And the philosophy works extremely well, with the undulating terrain allowing every single home a clear view of the wonderful hilly surroundings. The largest of the properties – a threestorey bungalow – covers 6,180 square feet. Inside all of the bungalows, the living and dining areas, along with the dry kitchen, form an open-plan layout, to emphasise a sense of minimalism, lightness and easy movement. All of the semi-detached properties have balconies and a large ground level space for parking cars. Both the two and three-storey homes have four bedrooms and four bathrooms, while all of the properties at Verge 32 enjoy

a modern design and layout that includes powder coated aluminum windows, timber doors, quality ironmongery and a reinforced concrete framework. Stainless steel plays a major role in all of the bathrooms, while a solar heater, CCTV, intercom and panic button are additional features. As for outside the properties’ built-up area, KCC’s design team has worked its magic to create a wonderful residential complex with pockets of tall trees, manicured leafage and grassy lawns. The aim of the development, which is spread over 5.4 acres, was to conserve the existing landform as much as possible and include a rainwater harvesting system. The site is overlooked by the Kemensah forest reserve and stunning mountain scenery, and is gated and guarded by multi-tiered security.

Overall, Superfat Design’s aim is to produce a design uniquely tailored to suit the lifestyles of each and every client. The company was engaged to design the new Escentials Flagship Store in Singapore. Located in the main shopping district of Orchard Road, the shop sought to further engage a new set of customers for the leading retailer of cult and designer perfumes in Singapore. Super Fat reinterpreted the experience of shopping in a ‘scent garden’, personalising and making it more intimate.

Merchandising displays and corners were reimagined, taking forms inspired by landscapes. The high-end perfumery is luxurious without being intimidating with a design featuring fragrance consultation zones and intimate nooks. As customers enter the store they are greeted by stylish, angular displays, behind which are private seating areas. Mirrored facing on additional landscapeinspired forms extends the texture of the floor and reveals further hidden displays. Niche or cult brands of perfumes are housed in an exclusive ‘perfume library’ where a consultant is on hand to help customers select a scent to suit their personality or mood. A step up into the beauty zone grants a feeling of privacy, while skin consultation takes place in a discreet nook.

Nearly every external and internal surface of the mall in Selangor, Malaysia was changed during the extensive refurbishment by DYXY Architecture + Interiors. All floors were modified, circulation systems were improved and all finishes were replaced in the mall’s public areas. The entire top floor was changed from being a school into a new retail space including a cinema, entertainment zone, food court and speciality outlets. This completely changed the leasing dynamics and flow of the project. The theme for the project was Malaysia’s national flower, the hibiscus. Its five petals

and multiple colour range were abstracted into the project and were integral in providing unique characteristics. From patterns on the exterior façade fins to interior ceilings to signage elements and the shape of the newly added skylights, the floral theme conveys a sense of cheer and nature. Two large atriums have also been carved out from within the building to enhance connectivity between retail floors and also engulf the space with natural sunlight. Klang Parade’s final design displays plenty of sensitivity towards the country’s culture and environment and has been well received by prospective tenants and local residents. The mall’s new and invigorating design is providing a higher rental yield and could potentially transform its surrounding area.

The company’s two latest awardwinning projects were both for The Hong Kong Jockey Club, one of the most recognised brand names throughout Asia. The first involved the design of a new leisure interior environment for the Club in Beijing, China. The client’s brief called for two existing venues totaling 1,088m² to be redeveloped into one new private dining venue named ‘The Capital’. This exclusive environment for the Club’s members and their guests features a range of different sized rooms to accommodate

80-90 people with a variety of table settings. Displaying creativity, quality and timeless elegance, the rooms provide different dining moods for both lunch and dinner experiences. The second project was to create a modern betting venue and a unique entry experience to the Club’s Happy Valley Racecourse, Hong Kong to attract members, horse owners and their guests. After considerable research to achieve the client’s goal, Inarc Design won the design competition for this new retail interior environment. The existing facility of around 50 years old was substantially renovated to provide a special venue in which members and their guests could enjoy city night-racing. Named ‘The Members Entrance’, its design reflects the mood and excitement of horse-racing in Hong Kong.

Sophisticated, modernistic and blending with the surroundings, the architectural language is minimalist and essential. Contemporary in its carefully designed simplicity, the large curtain wall glazing dramatises the views from all units and portrays an outstanding façade.

The company is located less than 25 miles from mainland China and has collected many an accolade for its work in the office, residential and retail sectors of interior design. For this particular project, Grande Development opted for a largely Haussmannian Style of interior design, believing it perfectly complemented modern life in the metropolis that is Hong Kong. Among the many structural changes carried out, a design professional removed the wall between the storeroom and bedroom one,

which provided space for a much-needed clothing cabinet. The master room was also enlarged considerably by combining it with the third bedroom and by removing, what was considered to be, a wasteful corridor. With space at a premium in this typical Hong Kong apartment, it was decided to use a hidden door in bedroom one which connects both walls in the living and dining rooms. A brick wall in the master bedroom was removed and replaced by a glass petition, allowing the owners to enjoy the sea view from the bathroom. Finally, the designer added a distressed mirror to enhance the Haussmannian look and feel for the young couple who returned to Hong Kong following their wedding in Paris.

ES E was established more than six decades ago and has extensive experience with major construction projects. The company’s award-winning residential high-rise project is Tao Zhu Yin Yuan tower in Taipei Taiwan. An innovative design idea of a carbon-absorbing green building in a swirling form that combines the meaning of DNA helix structure. Every double helix is represented by two housing units forming a full level; thus from its base to the top, the 20 inhabited levels in the double helix stretch and twist. Every floor is rotated by 4.5 degrees clockwise as the tower moves up to a total of 90 degrees. Each residence area contains 844m²and 167m² of ambient sky garden with the most magnificent 270-degree views. Up to a dozen trees can be planted on every floor, also create a stunning

private forest on ground floor with over 350 arbor trees. The name ‘Tao Zhu Yin Yuan’ is inspired by an ancient Chinese chancellor Fan Li, a successful politician, businessman and philanthropist who is also known as Tao Zhu Gong. BES sets Tao Zhu Gong as a role model, thus commits to take actions on the most difficult challenges in the 21st century: global warming and climate change. Tao Zhu Yin Yuan is eco-designed which presents a pioneer concept of sustainable residential eco-construction. It aims to limit the ecologic footprint of its inhabitants by researching the right symbiosis between both the human being and nature. The architectural concept is therefore to design an energy self-sufficient building whose energy is not only electric but also thermal and sustainable.

  , Peddle Thorp Architects (PTA) is an international architecture and design firm with a global network of offices. The company has won awards for the following three projects. Sheraton Shanghai Jiading Hotel is a fivestar hotel comprised of 345 rooms over 20 floors and includes commercial, retail and hotel amenities. The owner and operator requested a modern elegant design following the Sheraton visual identity guidelines with a twist on a local point of view. Its main lobby boasts the launch of Sheraton’s new link concept designed exclusively by PTA. The architectural style for the fourstar Qube Hotel in Jingzhou, reflects the exquisiteness and elegance of Chinese classic culture in a modern façade. Its two towers

were inspired by ancient Chinese bronze artifacts. This establishes a strong link with Jingzhou’s history of bronze casting. Following the guidelines for the client owned Qube hotel chain, the brief required a podium with retail functions, around 300 guest rooms and a serviced apartment tower. Greenland Central Square, Xiangyang is a vibrant shopping mall, destined to become the integral centrepiece of an entirely new community. An intriguing design constraint relating to the façade regarding light pollution and commercial building safety became a key design innovation driver for PTA. A unique, cost effective, unitized curtain wall system with glass, aluminium and stone proved an innovative strategy to address this stringent requirement.

PMK Dialysis Center is an award-winning renovation project by Bareo. Before this renovation, patients under procedure were crowded into the existing room with no privacy and confusing circulations of all types of users. It lacked adequate seating for doctors and nurses alike, and was largely just one giant open space. There was no room to store equipment nor rest rooms for staff Since the PMK Dialysis Center plays an important role in modern healthcare to serve chronic kidney disease patients, Colonel

Ouppatham Supasyndh, M.D., Chief of Nephrology Division, insisted that Bareo must complete the entire renovation of this 6,405 square feet project within just 60 days. New planning and lighting design along with many innovative details were Bareo’s key successes with this project. Headboard modules were brilliantly designed to reduce production and installation time and a foolproof mirroring bed layout was introduced to prevent human errors. In addition to the main room where dialysis is carried out on a daily basis, and which covers 326m², there are now two meeting rooms, a separate room for physicians, and numerous other private spaces for staff. Additional features include check-in and check-out counters, ample storage and security CCTV.

SMS consists of three zones, Indoor Mall, Downtown Walk (with alfresco dining concept), culinary center Salsa Food City, and traditional market Pasar Sinpasa. Starting with Pasar Sinpasa and Salsa Food City’s development in 2002, SMS 1 in 2006, and SMS 2 in 2011, SMS today has transformed into Tangerang’s (even Jakarta’s) most visited shopping and retail area. The management managed to produce a new concept by harmoniously integrating shopping malls with traditional market, something that is usually avoided. Apart from becoming symbol of a new lifestyle, SMS has led to the growth of various communities, social, and cultural activities. By unveiling its environmentally friendly layout

and architecture, SMS was created as a platform that is able to transform as much leisure time to become more valuable, serving life full of dimensions. Through Downtown Walk, an alfresco dining area which comes with a wide variety of events and entertainment programs, SMS has turned the quiet suburban area into a sparkling gem, increasing the investment value throughout the region, promoting local economic development, and increases employment opportunities. SMS is innovatively designed as an energyefficient building. Apart from using gas for energy which is much more efficient than the state’s electricity system that uses oil, a conversion mechanism is applied to convert waste heat into new energies that can be used for air conditioning. The building itself uses energy-efficient lighting, and the management implements the use of organic materials for food packaging in every tenants.

The design brief required a movie-themed, studio-concept resort, comprising large-scale integrated cinematic inspired entertainment, gaming, five-star hotel offerings, high-end retail and F&B outlets as well as innovative, interactive attractions. The design concept was inspired by two asteroids shooting through a Gotham City building. The building façade was developed from Art Deco style, referencing early 20th century buildings in America.

Overall, the theme was based on Hollywood’s film industry with all its grandeur, glamour and glitz. Interiors reflect the imagery of movies as well as streetscapes from LA and New York. Shanghai YueXing Universal Commercial Centre is a 46-storey office tower within YueXing Global Harbor mixed-use development. Benchmarked to provide grade A office space to compete with edgy offices in Shanghai, the architecture was designed with a neoclassical approach. The tower’s composition and proportions were carefully considered and crafted while bringing in simplifications to the detailing. This ensured the functionality and commercialisation aspects required today. Although contemporary in its interpretation, classic Art Deco influences are evident throughout the building’s stunning interior.

The client asked for a modern architectural design, amalgamated with a green surrounding context, well interacting with the recreational elements. The interior includes wellness area, open living-dining plan and a section for hosting guests. Straight, clear lines, wrapped by the neutral tone of travertine walls, create a

balanced atmosphere and an attractive space conducive to relaxation and rest. Interruption of large, sliding double-glazed doors blurs boundaries, minimising the transition between inside and outside. Privacy for the spa with its steam room, massage corner and ‘cascata’ showers is guaranteed by strategic green partitions in more exposed parts. These offer a holistic experience without interrupting the consonance with nature. The infinity, saltwater swimming pool offers a wet side bar, an immersed seating corner and refreshing, floating lounges.

Guangzhou is China’s third largest metropolis close to Hong Kong, while Cloud DCS – located within the Nansha area of the city – will cover 2,000m² while providing much-needed high-tech internet services. The aim of the project is to create a new identity for data centres that are normally viewed as

industrial buildings filled with thousands of cabinets containing server boxes, a power station, cooling plant and broadband centre. Such buildings are usually impersonal, stuffy and hot, with an overriding monotone noise produced by busy servers giving the impression that low flying aircraft are continually circling overhead. However, Cloud DCS will destroy all of these negative images forever, while bringing new life to what is often perceived as clinical number-crunching institutions. Take a walk through Cloud DCS and you will be greeted by a vision of the future, something more in common with the set of a space age Hollywood movie. The entire complex is light, airy, spacious and refreshingly easy on the eye, almost futuristic.

The company’s award-winning interior design project The Vineyard required a highly innovative and unconventional design. One of a series of three-storey, semidetached houses in Hong Kong, it is owned by a couple with a unique taste for their private living space. With this firmly in mind, AC Design has employed a minimalist style, putting great effort into detailing, colours and materials. One of the main design concepts has been

to add layers in the house through the use of colour, texture and lighting. The living room is mainly black and white while the dining room is largely white with just the right amount of black furniture and bright paintings to embellish it. Different staircases have been incorporated into the design to amp up the mood and style of the house. The garden is also a main focus of the design and features rich layers with a modern touch. As an example, a mini waterfall has been built to inject a unique sense of nature with gently flowing water. Both the interior and the exterior feature a natural colour tone to match the contemporary black and white palette, thus the designs of the garden and the living room echo one another.

No matter what the scale and scope, whether urban or rural, the company’s solutions are conceived to be functional, inspiring and timeless. Azerbaijan has a key role in export and import facilities between East and West. As the world economy shifts from West to East in the current global climate, the rising significance of the country is likely to be long standing. Therefore, Azerbaijan Custom Academy is conceived as one of the strategic investments in the development of highly skilled labour and cutting edge know-how. Both will undoubtedly prove crucial in regulating custom activities. The design seeks an architectural manifesto

embodying the ‘knowledge of practice’ and ‘knowledge of learning’ with its two angular longitude blocks. The meeting area in the middle opens to a convention space where the library constitutes a major attraction around which outdoor activities and social spaces meet. The blocks accommodate the educational activities and administrative facilities while representing a permeable spatial configuration allowing continuity between indoor and outdoor areas. Along the block, niches and kiosks are lined up to enliven the social and cultural life. Azerbaijan Custom Academy, extending to 43,000m, sets itself as the conception of continuity in architectural terms. This is also the fundamental element of custom functions where the efficiency of the process is its hallmark.

The rectangular building block design may look simple, but only came about following months of testing using 3D models and computer simulations. As for Mount Parker, ARK was commissioned to carry out the overall layout, plus interior design of residential units, lobbies, public spaces and clubhouse. So it set about the task with the purpose of redefining luxury. One particular success story at Mount Parker – and there are many – is the clubhouse which does not follow the traditional method of enclosed private rooms. Instead, ARK took an open plan approach by merging several areas together, thus blurring boundaries and increasing a sense of space and community.

With a goal to be a leading Singapore brand in interior design, Hottoh Design continues to strive for perfection in cultivating interiors that are unique and engaging. Both Hottoh Design and the client agreed on the theme for the award-winning Asian Cosmopolitan Penthouse at the very outset. The high-rise apartment in the multi-cultural city of Singapore was to be based on Asian heritage with a cosmopolitan twist to identify

with the best of both worlds in typical urban living. The client’s collection of Asian inspired artifacts, decorative accessories and furniture gave Hottoh Design an enjoyable challenge to arrange it to fit in with the Asian theme. Unlike the erstwhile grand and formal styles, vivid colours have been used to inject contemporary vibes and identify living spaces throughout the home. The client specified magenta and mustard as colour choices on the first level which contains the private lobby, sitting room, dining room and den. Grey was proposed by the design team and agreed as the base tone. The design overhaul has transformed a once cold and mainstream architectural interior into a welcoming respite which resonates tropical Asian vibes.

Therefore, it was designed using a more public approach by opening up the public floor and using transparent glass at the main prayer hall. aLM has sought to deliver a religious building designed for the future – breaking away from using traditional temple features, emphasising the

The restoration of Seh Tek Tong Cheah Kongsi, one of the oldest clan houses in Penang, is the first major work undertaken since it was completed in 1873. It included renovating the temple, artistic fencing along the street, an ornate entrance arch and an Interpretation Centre. The building is classified as a Category One heritage building and so architectural and structural integrity was maintained by using traditional materials and employing skilled artisans.

The design philosophy is to create integrated design solutions imbibing amalgamated, efficient, robust and sustainable designs leading to performative architecture. The company’s ever-growing portfolio is something to behold, none more so than the Punjab Kesari Headquarters. Situated in one of Delhi’s leading commercial districts, the Punjab Kesari Headquarters – which is presently under construction – will cover 13,000m² and rise to 23 metres. The building

is a fusion of traditional Indian architecture and contemporary office space sitting in harmony with its surroundings. It is made up of six floors, including a basement set aside for parking, and will be used as headquarters for the client. However, it will also house many office modules, each occupying 500m², which can be rented out by Punjab Kesari. One of the key objectives was to design office space that maximises the use of daylight, and which requires no artificial light during a typical working day, yet still provide a glare-free environment for employees. This is achieved by the porosity of its remarkable intricate façade, with its hexagonal pattern of varying shapes, all of which have been designed to respond to the amount of solar radiation entering the building.

Its resulting portfolio displays a diverse mix of outstanding projects such as Te Waonui Forest Retreat in Franz Josef, New Zealand. The award-winning design takes the form of four wings that join together to enclose an area of carefully preserved native rainforest. All the guest room balconies look out into the rainforest which is so dense that guests cannot see across to the opposite wing, giving a sense of seclusion and privacy to the rooms. The two-storey wings are linked by external covered walkways. The intention is to allow the bush to regenerate and grow

right up to the walkways and balconies. Clad in stained rough sawn cedar and plywood, the building’s exterior is designed to blend into the bush and fit with the New Zealand West Coast aesthetic. Environmental sustainability has been considered in every step of the development, from the initial site planning to the detailed design and selection of materials, through to the construction process. With the interiors, Dalman Architecture has used New Zealand products wherever possible to make this a hotel that speaks of its location. The theme of ‘filtered light through the tree canopy’ occurs many times, in the dappled pattern carpets, coloured glazing in the bar and the forest screen behind the reception.

Gunjay Villa in Nashik, Maharastra, India is a double award-winning project for the company. The client had left the architectural design of the property completely to BNK and had very little input into the choice of materials. In terms of layout, since the plot was small and the location of the villa’s rooms were fixed as per ‘vastu’ (a traditional Hindu system of architecture, which literally translates to ‘science of architecture’), there was little that could be changed. As for the overall massing, privacy concerns due to the surrounding buildings were addressed by the use of

sliding louvres, decks as buffer spaces and an attractive courtyard for allowing the flow of natural light and ventilation. The five-bedroom villa’s interiors follow the modern, contemporary language of its architecture with minimal wastage of space. The spaces have been kept clean, straight and up-to-the – minute with inspiration taken from various patterns to create texture, movement, rhythm and relief throughout. Even the soft furnishings have been customised to complement the space and add yet another layer of texture to the interiors. The desired result was a home which reflected the client’s lifestyle exemplifying clean lines with simple, understated luxury.

The company has grown considerably over the past couple of decades, and during its incredible journey has transformed many a dull room or empty building into an exotic creation that possess energy and enthusiasm. Cai-In turns each new commission into a mission to invent bold new visions of artistic excellence. This is most certainly evident with Champs Liyuan, a modern construction set on two floors and covering 1,500m2. The Taiwan-

Among the requirements were reading and conference rooms, a gym, yoga classroom, spa, community area and landscaped courtyard and gardens. The result was remarkable, with visitors arriving at Champs Liyuan to be greeted by its spacious, sharp and superbly tiled lobby. Everywhere you look on entering the building there is grandeur, with large chandeliers and expensive marble. There is a softer, smoother feel to the community, conference and reading rooms. A stroll into the gym returns the visitor to something much more scientific and contemporary, while in the spa you can relax while taking in views of the garden.

JOHO’s award-winning work covers many different subjects, from its Namhae Cheo-ma House, to the Curving House at Yongin, or Casa Geometrica in Seoul. However, one of its proudest designs is Countless Glasses at Gangnam in the capital. The business in question is Davich, the largest optical establishment in the country. Once again, JOHO stretched the boundaries of artistry with its panelled exterior.

Approximately 3,600 pieces of renewable aluminium panels, in the shape of spectacles to characterise the nature of Davich’s business, were used to replace a building that used to be a dull square block of concrete with a handful of windows. What makes the concept so impressive is that the façade has a number of layers. There are outer and inner aluminium panels, as well as a reflecting steel strip, and even the front entrance is designed to depict a giant pair of spectacles. Because light enters via holes in the panels, windows are unnecessary. The renovated property has a basement, where a café and contact lens shop can be found, plus four other floors and a roof top garden.

Secondly, it was to have a novel exterior design with a distinctive presence. As the site to be developed faced a road with constant heavy traffic, Architect Show sought to soundproof the house. It was also decided not to install a window on the façade beside the road to ensure the utmost privacy

and security. A large, sun-drenched terrace was designed on the south side of the house. Connecting the living and dining areas it also provided a place where the client’s children could play safely outside. A large window allows light and air to flow in freely from the terrace to the interior, connecting the family to Japan’s changing seasons. Shellhouse was designed as a wooden structure with low thermal conductivity and decorated using natural paints to promote green building practices. Set back over two metres from the busy road, the property features several newly planted trees and relates well to its surroundings.

This exquisite enclave, located in the neighbourhood of New Manila, consists of 20 homes – 16 apartments and four villas. Inspired by the traditional indigenous home, each structure fuses time-honoured Filipino elements with contemporary architecture and innovative green design. All Campanilla Lane homes are built using sustainable materials, harnessing both nature and technology to create elegant and environment-friendly living. The project began taking shape in 2012 when the landowners – the Alcuaz family – approached Mañosa Properties, having been impressed by another of their developments nearby.

Mañosa’s uncomplicated rationale is ‘architecture must be true to itself, its land and its people’. The design team came up with over 55 schemes to ensure that all the mature trees within the complex could be retained in order to maintain a lush landscape. Each of the 16 apartments covers 260m² and has three en suite bedrooms and a maid’s room. The villas are four-tier properties that include two master bedrooms and an elevator, with space beneath level two set aside for car parking. The objective was to design four villas that were multi-generational. In other words, they must accommodate three generations in a single property that, in time, would become their future ancestral home. Overall, Campanilla Lane is a mix of luxury apartments and villas that blend beautifully with their green surroundings while offering a pool and a multi-function area.

One Imperial, located in Sungai Ara, Penang is a mid-height, freehold residential property. It comprises five blocks of 23-storey towers offering a total of 768 units. The condominium development called for a ‘modern contemporary’ design targeted to those who wish to enjoy the state-of-the-art facilities and blissful lifestyle it offers. Set in a four-acre recreational park, One Imperial features family-centric living within stylish three-bedroom, two bathroom apartments in a resort-like environment. The redevelopment of the site has uplifted

the quality of life for the local community, bringing with it further economic growth for the area. I-Santorini in Tanjung Tokong, Penang features a design inspired from the Greek Santorini islands. The main requirement of the high-rise development was to build affordable, luxury housing with an impressive range of facilities. The total project consists of three blocks of high-rise condominiums with concept shop-lots on the ground and first floor of the residential building. This offers a total of 2,155 units comprising three-bedrooms and twobathrooms, and 68 shop offices. The residents will be pampered with the panoramic views of the Malacca Straits channel and I-Santorini’s surrounding Mediterranean-style gardens with their soothing water features throughout.

  , Asian Pac Holdings Berhad (APHB) is a public listed company, which together with its subsidiary companies, centres on investment holdings, property development and investment, mall and carpark ownership and trading in building materials. Imago is poised to become the epitome of a sophisticated, world-class shopping experience in KK Times Square. APHB’s vision is to create a lifestyle destination of choice that is unrivalled in Kota Kinabalu with exciting international and local brands coupled with quality dining, leisure and entertainment. Therefore, Imago’s design has to be unmatched in terms of class, luxury and aesthetic appeal. In order to create a class-leading integrated development, APHB ensured that it did not adhere to any local vernacular building styles. Taking up the challenge to

raise the bar of design with Imago, elements of local flora and the strong influence of the nearby coast and sea featured strongly in its award-winning concept. The Loft is the residential component of KK Times Square, sited on 15.46 acres. It is comprised of five blocks of nine to 10-storey serviced residences located in the vibrant heart of the commercial district. Containing 631 modern and luxurious serviced apartments within a multi-faceted development, The Loft achieves the perfect compromise between designer chic and everyday usability. Everything about The Loft’s serviced residences exudes quality and refinement from the exterior to the interior. Modern and chic living spaces feature angular shapes, minimalistic design, spacious, uncluttered interiors and a tasteful blend of wood, steel, tile granite and concrete.
