The Golden Ratio of Living

Bringing harmony to everyday life, real estate developer Lofter Group introduces The Timeless Series, a bold new succession of projects that embody balance in Hong Kong living

In the tapestry of Hong Kong’s urban landscape, a timeless allure emerges.

Hong Kong, romanticised in the arts and real life for its dynamic energy and vibrant urban landscape, is home to a collection of residential buildings that defy the rapid pace of change. These buildings stand as silent witnesses to the city’s evolution.

Indeed, Hong Kong’s heritage buildings encapsulate its rich past and diverse architecture. Tenement houses, walk-ups, shophouses, colonial-era structures, and temples reflect how far the city has come.

These treasures embody a blend of Eastern and Western influences, offering insights into Hong Kong’s community life. Preserving such buildings is thereby crucial because they connect a modern metropolis to its roots.

Past, present, and future collide in the form of 181 Sai Yee Street, the first venture by property developer Lofter Group into residential development. It is also the first in a series of residential developments by the company aptly called The Timeless Series.

Situated at the eponymous street in the bustling heart of Mong Kok, 181 Sai Yee Street is a sophisticated 21-storey residential development with a mix of uses. This architectural marvel welcomes a new chapter for the neighbourhood and takes it into an era of modernisation that is still grounded in the past.

Comprising 52 exquisite units, 181 Sai Yee Street has an extensive array of layouts, spanning from 240 square feet to 450 sq ft, tailored to suit the needs of young professionals and contemporary families.

The appreciation for Hong Kong’s cultural heritage and artistic richness comes as its citizens gain more wisdom. There are now around 3.52 million people aged 35 to 64 living in Hong Kong. The youngest of this set, mostly born in the 1980s, display a reverential attitude towards arts and culture even as they seek equilibrium in their personal and professional spheres. A good portion of millennials, those born from 1981 to 1996, are known for their high household incomes in Hong Kong.

The design of 181 Sai Yee Street is notable for the harmonious fusion of materials, prominently displayed in the crescent-shaped balconies. They allude to the unique urban tapestry of Hong Kong while proudly showcasing its distinct identity.

At its core, The Timeless Series is not just about architecture. It is a symphony that harmonises form and function, environmental sustainability, smart living, and wellness concepts that ensure utmost comfort for residents.

The Timeless Series is an opportunity to put the concept of the “Golden

Ratio” of Living into practice. This concept encapsulates the essence of harmonious coexistence and life balance, mirroring the delicate harmony people seek in their daily lives.

In addition to 181 Sai Yee Street, Lofter Group has readied more exciting projects within The Timeless Series. They include the illustrious project known as No. 1-15 Ki Lung Street in Prince Edward, which brings an iconic 50-year-old tong lau (tenement building) back to life, as well as No. 2C-2D Boundary Street in Tai Kok Tsui; and Nos. 2-4A Ping Lan Street & Nos. 26-28 Ho King Street in Ap Lei Chau.

In addition to music, The Timeless Series also finds its way into the world of movies. Lofter Group has created the “Moonlight Treasure Box” (月光 寶盒), a thoughtful gift inspired by legendary film star Stephen Chow. Depicted as a time travel tool on film, this unique creation aligns with the concept of The Timeless Series, where old items transcend the limits of time.

With the same vision, Lofter Group collaborated with local NGOs to donate clothes and electric home appliances. These community engagement initiatives resonate with the essence of The Timeless Series—coexistence, inclusion, and sustainability.

Lofter Group’s exhibition, Old Hong Kong - Fusion- Art Concept Studio, celebrates the seamless blending of old and new in the city’s architecture, as witnessed by the Ki Lung Street development, and gives new life to cherished relics.

To showcase the spirit of Hong Kong culture, Lofter Group also sponsored 852FES, a prestigious music festival held at AsiaExpo. During the day, Lofter Group helped present the city’s world-famous street culture, ultimately tying into the essence of The Timeless Series as a harmonious integration of local elements.

All the projects under The Timeless Series will benefit from implementing the Golden Ratio, enriching the lives of all those who become part of this exceptional living experience. At its heart, The Timeless Series is more than just a vision of artistry in architecture; it is a celebration of the golden ratio that governs the balance between tradition and modernity in everyday life.
