Welcome!

This issue our main focus is on superyachts and all the fabulous properties which can be found in and around highly desirable marina locations. We’ve covered destinations ranging from London’s St Katharine Docks through France, Monaco, Spain, Italy and Cyprus to Dubai and Fort Lauderdale.

With each place, the aim is to seek the most exclusive homes with yachting facilities virtually on the doorstep.

St Katharine’s Dock, for example, will never cease to amaze me.

You just don’t expect to find such a superb marina right next to the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. I spent a great weekend there on a friend’s boat a few years ago and after locking out we sailed back to Ipswich in Suffolk. It was a long, tiring day but seeing so many famous sights along the Thames from a private yacht was truly memorable.

Talking of memorable experiences, it’s always exciting to travel to a country you’ve never visited before and in June I was fortunate in being able to do just that. I was invited to Montenegro to view the site of an extensive new project that is just commencing with a completion date of 2020. It will include a five-star hotel and 175 Swissotel Residences in the glorious location of Kotor. My stay was all too short but Montenegro has certainly been added to my ever-increasing list of places to which I hope to return. The only problem is trying to stretch my holiday to fit in time at all the places I know and love as well as some new explorations alongside.

Following 30 years of renewal and regeneration, Greenwich is one of the capital’s most attractive and sought-after areas in which to live

F

amed for giving its name to Greenwich Mean Time, Greenwich is where hemispheres meet as well as being home to a World Heritage Site, The O2, London’s only cable car and its oldest Royal park. The area also offers a host of fabulous properties for those who relish its village atmosphere.

Ben Morris, director of new homes at Colliers International comments, “Following 30 years of renewal and regeneration, Greenwich is one of the capital’s most attractive and soughtafter areas in which to live and there are now a number of factors that are putting the area at the top of the buyer wish list – not least, the endless array of entertainment in the vicinity such parks, gyms, cinemas, restaurants and markets which have added life and vibrancy to the area beyond the tourist sites. The University of Greenwich and the Goldsmith’s University of London are also within a short walk.

“Furthermore, the Mayor’s Outer London Fund has given £1.5 million, supported by £732,000 from the council, for a series of projects to prepare neighbouring area, Deptford’s high street, for the future. These improvements are making the high street more appealing, better equipped to accommodate more residents and able to really fulfil its potential.”

Nimish Patel, sales manager of Chestertons in Greenwich, tells us that, traditionally, the area attracted buyers with a creative or artistic profession but it’s a little different nowadays. “Due to the areas growth in popularity,” he explains, “we are seeing more bankers, doctors and lawyers choosing to live here. Families mainly make up the composition of the street currently. They are attracted by the village atmosphere that Greenwich has to offer, which is unlike many other London towns.

Signal Townhouses, Greenwich Peninsula West

Split over three levels and with two private outdoor spaces, these townhouses offer an exceptional contemporary space within a private gated mews. Offering the best in 21st century living in an area dominated by period properties, the modern architecture of these townhouses includes exposed Weinnerberger Marziale brickwork, a granite courtyard and decked roof terrace.

Internally, the contemporary aesthetic continues and is spread over three floors. Offering 1, 340 square feet of living space, each townhouse offers a vast, open plan, bespoke kitchen leading to dining and living areas that provide extensive space for entertaining.

“Greenwich is steeped in history and is still very much a tourist hotspot. The area is famous for the Cutty Sark museum, the Queen’s House, the theatre and Greenwich Park, and visitors come from all over to see these attractions. Despite its history, the area has had some general gentrifications over the last few years with the opening of many new restaurants and the refurbishment of the Greenwich Market which is open seven days a week. Greenwich has also been the home to a few famous faces, including Oscar, BAFTA and Golden Globe winning actor Daniel DayLewis in his younger years. There is a blue plaque property on Crooms Hill which used to belong to his father, poet Cecil Day-Lewis.”

Capital Wharf, Wapping

This three-bedroom, three bathroom penthouse is on the sixth and seventh floors with views to Tower Bridge. It offers excellent natural light and open space throughout with access to a large, private riverside roof terrace of 67m2 and two balconies.

The apartment includes a large reception room with high ceilings, access to the balcony, raised viewing area and a spiral staircase leading to the roof terrace. The master bedroom includes a dressing area, en suite bathroom and access to the terrace. Capital Wharf has the use of on-site gym facilities and 24-hour concierge and is within easy reach of the amenities at St Katharine Docks and transport links. £3m / €3.4m / $4.1m Knight Frank  www.knightfrank.co.uk

Bound for St Kat’s

Established in 1828, St Katharine Docks is Central London’s only marina, visitors can enjoy the unique experience of boating up the Thames and mooring right next to the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. Vessels are welcomed from all over the world and many people visit just to watch the lock in operation.

Robert Scullion-Smith, lettings manager at Dexters Wapping, says, “Buyers and tenants are increasingly moving here from the City and Canary Wharf. Warehouse conversions are the typical stock here, often with a mix of both contemporary and traditional interiors. Typical buyers and tenants include City workers from the banks looking for walking distance to the City or across to Canary Wharf via Canada Water from Wapping overground station.

“Easy access to Liverpool Street and Canary Wharf are the big draws, and those with families love the location as it’s very quiet and unassuming compared to neighbouring areas. The average rent of a two-bed property is around £475 – £575 a week, increasing to £700 – £1,400 in a riverside location with a view.”

David Mews, Greenwich Village Immaculate three to four-bedroom modern townhouse in a private and secure gated mews.

It’s little surprise that yacht tourism also forms a significant part of the attraction, this being an ideal destination for super-lux yacht owners.

Hexagon Investments is currently launching the construction of its new residence and hotel project, Swissôtel Residences in Kotor. I stayed in this remarkably scenic town whose Old City is on the UNESCO World Heritage list to explore the 42,000m2 site.

Swissôtel Residences, Bay of Kotor will be situated only 3km away from the Old Town, 9km away from Tivat airport, and just an hour’s drive from Podgorica airport. This makes it an easy destination for travellers from all over Europe and Russia. Guests and residents will enjoy the colourful culture of Montenegro, the rich variety of local cuisine, serenity of Kotor and the energetic buzz of nearby Budva.

Andrea Marechal Watson reviews shows in London, Bilbao and Milan

All Too Human

Lucian Freud and Francis Bacon are among artists featured in a show looking at 100 years of the human figure in British art. Curator Elena Crippa takes the title from Friedrich Nietzche’s line, ‘Everywhere he looked… what he saw was not only far from divine but all-too-human’.

For post-War artists in bomb shattered London this was all too true. Their expression of this new reality can be seen in Bacon's 1945 Figure in a Landscape – a tortured half human figure in a hellish landscape that foretells the later tropes the painter explored. But while this painting is the starting pistol for the show, the rooms move back to the early and often interconnected influencers: David Bomberg who taught Frank Auerbach and Leon Kossoff

The Feeling of Things

This is the most extensive retrospective yet of Californian 'hippy' artist Matt Mullican.

Attempting to explain and structure the

mad planet we live on, Mullican invented ‘five worlds’, corresponding to different levels of perception and represented by five colours.

Visitors are invited to enter a vast sculpture created for the show by the artist within which they will discover thousands of meticulously arranged works and objects; paintings, rubbings, banners, glass sculptures, works on paper, videos, lightboxes, floor pieces and bigger installations. The exhibition is accompanied by a book of Mullican's photographic works dating back to analogue photos from the 1970s and 1980s.

Chagall

The Breakthrough Years, 1911–1919 This show distils the elements that gave birth to Marc Chagall's unique style of painting – his dreamlike images of snowy streets, wooden houses, fiddlers and his flying bride, Bella. Primary among the influences was his Hasidic Jewish background growing up in the picturesque city of Vitebsk, known as Russia's Toledo for its onion-topped churches.

ciety to become one of the country's most celebrated artists. Though influenced by his time in St Petersburg, Russian folk art, and avant-garde movements when he moved to Paris, his storehouse of visual imagery never expanded beyond his childhood landscape and in later years Chagall spoke of himself as a 'boy still flying with wind in his head'. The show helps explain why Chagall is an artist whose work is recognisable even to those innocent of a formal 'art education'.

Three award-winning interior designers offer advice on balancing the functional needs of a kitchen with comfort and style

The kitchen needs to be designed as a family living space, not just as a space for cooking

a

well-designed kitchen is warm and welcoming, a place where all the family likes to gather and where you’re most likely to end up socialising at a party. Interiors by Stephanie Kasel was founded in 2002 in Switzerland by the interior designer of the same name. “The heart of the home is the kitchen,” she says, “it's where people tend to meet and cook and entertain, more so now than in any other room. Although all designers approach kitchen design in their own unique way, one

unanimous point that is agreed on is that the kitchen needs to be designed as a family living space, not just as a space for cooking.”

Stephanie starts each design with a mood board, carefully choosing all the components of the kitchen design. “The worktop has to be very practical to use, as well as stylish,” she explains. While cabinetry is the main style decision we make, we never underestimate the impact the worktop choice will have on the overall scheme.

Along with the flooring, it sits on a horizontal plane, making it highly prominent, so it’s important to give it due consideration and not to view it as an after-thought. Worktop materials have changed quite radically in the last few years, offering a vast choice across all budgets.

“The cabinetry is not just for storage. It is an essential element to your kitchen’s style, the crown jewel that brings everything together. You can use oak in its natural colour or opt to give it a coat of paint. Shades of black, blue, and grey seem to be a rising favourite for 2018.”

When embarking on a new kitchen, Stephanie advises that the most important step is to plan the layout in a way that makes the best use of the space. “It is nearly always true that the simpler the plan, the better the building,” she says. “Too many plans end up getting complicated and embellished because the basic concept just doesn’t work. Simplify, simplify, simplify — and not just for aesthetic reasons. Incorporate circulation space into your design to let the room breathe and not be over cluttered and make the most of your window space.

The sight lines from key views and entrances should be kept as clear as possible so that the room feels open and spacious.

“Do not forget to include comfortable seating. Kitchen seating doesn’t have to mean uncomfortable stools, bring in a sofa to create a sociable vibe. And, as a general rule, plan for far more lighting than you think you will need. The more lighting you have, the more choices you have about creating mood within a room, whether it’s a romantic dinner for two or an informal dinner party with friends.

Add in homely twists. You could also add wine storage or bookshelves, don’t be afraid of reflecting your family’s personality throughout your kitchen.

This will help to build a relaxed and friendly atmosphere and show it off as the heart of your home.” www.stephaniekasel.ch

Bachelorette Pad

Comfort and functionality

Design Intervention is one of the leading design studios operating in the Asia Pacific region. Nikki Hunt, principal, says, “One of the key tenets to our design philosophy is that comfort and functionality should never be compromised for the sake of aesthetics. Nowhere is this more true than when planning a kitchen.”

When beginning any kitchen design, the first questions Design Intervention considers is how the space is to be used. Will it be purely functional, for family dining or geared towards entertaining? “We also consider the type of food cooked, Asian or Western for example,” explains Nikki, “the physical traits of the primary cook like their height and even if they are right or left handed. This way we can ensure that everything is perfectly placed and all needs anticipated.

“If multiple cooks are to be catered for then we will allow for more workspace and sufficient passage space too. This way we can create a completely couture kitchen that fits both the functionality and way of living. It is only after the space planning, functional and technical issues have been established that we will make our finish choices and, even with the finishes, practicality is key. In a kitchen hardwearing, easy to clean finishes are vital.”

The kitchens featured here are from two of Design Intervention’s awardwinning projects. “The designs of these kitchens are very different but they have one common feature,” explains Nikki, “they each have been tailored to the needs of their respective home owners. ‘Chatsworth Kitchen’ was for a family with four young children and a dad that enjoys cooking.

“We envisioned this room to be the heart of the home, not only a space for family meals, but also kids doing homework and even just hanging out while dad prepares meals. We have allowed for integrated charging stations for iphones and ipads as well as a TV to keep kids amused. The finishes look sleek and glamorous but have all been chosen to be practical too. Bronze gold leather bar stools can be wiped clean and their gas lift function makes them perfect for young children. The granite island top was the star element of the design and the

starting point for our colour choice for all the other elements in the room.”

The ‘Bachelorette Pad Kitchen’ is for a single lady and has been designed to be used for one person who seldom entertains. “The brief for this kitchen was for it to be fully integrated into the living space and to include a space to eat in,” says Nikki.

“At 153 square feet this is a small space to include all the functional needs of a fully working kitchen and the client had requested that the space would resonate with the same style and glamour as the rest of her home.” » www.designintervention.com.sg

Added features, like small sophisticated backlights, will illuminate your kitchen in tremendous ways that will make you want to cook constantly

It’s all about lifestyle

www.valeriebarth.com

Valérie Barth Studio is a lifestyle design company based on France’s Côte d’Azur. The company’s founder, Valérie Barth takes her inspiration from the parameters of the project – the room itself and the environment as well as from the client.

She says, “Our lifestyles are changing in the modern world we live in today. Nowadays we find ourselves working more, the idea of a traditional family is not the same, and everything is more digitally advanced. Therefore, our way of thinking is changing as well and, when thinking of kitchens, people look for something more aesthetically attractive and technically facilitating.”

Valérie believes that today’s kitchens must be in agreement with living rooms but still treated as a separate piece of design in the home. “Space for eating a quick meal

on a kitchen island is essential as is the integration of a built-in library in the living room shared with the kitchen space. The style favoured greatly today in kitchens is modern, like that of Caesar or Elio Home, composed of new materials such as natural smoked woods, green lacquers, composite stones and wonderful marble structures. Instead of being simple, a variation of textures can be considered and this can really revamp the look of a monochrome design.”

The innovation of a kitchen and its integrated technology is also an important factor. “This sets any kitchen apart from another and also represents the modern era we live in today,” advises Valérie. “Whether you’re a novice or master chef, your kitchen should look aesthetically inviting and innovative. With a basic oven range, a kitchen is just a

kitchen, but with an electric oven range composed of digital features and an incorporated cover slide, your kitchen is now a piece of design within your home. Added features like small sophisticated backlights under the worktop, in baseboards and in cabinets will illuminate your kitchen in tremendous ways that will make you want to cook constantly.

“Also, do not forget that decorative lights can transform your kitchen into a living sculpture. Graphic, coloured, massive or unexpected, let’s have fun with a touch of elegance and an artistic touch that reveals the materials and the places. Finally, if there is a place in the home that need to be designed it is for sure the kitchen. Take inspiration from the internet and be sure to have the right advice from a professional to install your personalised kitchen, with style!”

by Anthony Sinopoli managed a welldeserved third place. Only 13 Maserati 6CM remain in existence out of the 27 produced: they feature an advanced front suspension system which allows springs to be adapted to different circuits.

Reach for the

SKY before it’s too late

Having achieved his lifelong dream, Stuart Shield shares the incredible experience of flying a Spitfire

during the Second World War built and played with plastic model kits of fighter planes that saw action during the Battle of Britain.

Airfix was the most popular and once the glue and Humbrol paint dried, the graphic decals featuring the roundels and other markings were floated off in warm water and stuck to the wings and fuselages.

Some boys would even attach black thread to their models and hang them from their bedroom ceilings. They would then shine their torch up at them at bedtime, dreaming of being a pilot.

The most popular design was the Spitfire and to me was the most beautiful aircraft to grace the heights of my bedroom. As most women say, the boy never grows up but just gets older. Cars, boats, helicopters and planes are often referred to as Big Boy’s Toys with Spitfires often described as being the ultimate.

The desire to fly a Spitfire never fades but for many it is always going to remain a dream. For a start, of the 22,000 built, only 35 remain in flying condition. It would cost £2 million or more to buy one and they just keep going up in value. Those ‘few’ who own these rare warbirds would be very reluctant to lend their pride and joy to anyone else to fly, so what are the chances of the dream becoming a reality?

Big surpse On my 60th birthday, my wife handed me a large envelope that I thought contained a jokey oversized card that would say, ‘The reason this birthday card needs to be so large is so you can read it without your glasses’. It didn’t, instead it was a flight in a two-seat Spitfire, one of only four in the UK. I thought I had run out of birthday surprises but this one was way beyond any other.

When the day arrived it was perfect in every way and blessed with the first warm sunshine of 2018. I wore the Nomex RAF pilot overalls I normally wear at the Goodwood Revival and drove to the visitor gates at Imperial War Museum Duxford. The guard mistook

Following this, I was introduced to the pilot Steve, who was a retired British Airways captain who asked me if I had any flying experience. I told him I had over 30 hours training for my PPL in a Cessna 152, a washing machine with wings when compared with the graceful Spit. He said that he would hand over control of the

tep on board a superyacht and you are instantly transported to a floating world of extreme luxury and comfort. Glorious destinations become within reach and a fabulous sense of escapism washes over you. But how do you begin to choose the right vessel for your needs?

Engel & Völkers Yachting is a high-end brokerage offering services in yacht sales and purchase, new build and refit consultancy and yacht charter.

Located across the French Riviera, one of the world’s most prominent yachting hubs, the company has offices in Monaco, Nice and Antibes.

Anissa Mediouni, CEO of Engel & Völkers Yachting, says, “The essence of yachting is pleasure. You should fall in love with a yacht, which will make every moment worthwhile.”

She stresses the importance that purchasers consider what they will need to use the superyacht for and what they are looking to get out of it.

“For example, if you are looking to go away with a large group of family and/ or friends you may want to consider a yacht with the maximum cabin arrangements to comfortably host everyone. Also, looking at the dining areas to ensure you have enough space

The essence of yachting is pleasure.

You should fall in love with a yacht, which will make every moment worthwhile

to properly entertain your guests is key. If you are looking more for a relaxing vacation for two, you may want to look at a yacht that has the top of the line spa and wellness facilities on board. If you are looking for a more family friendly time on board, you should take into consideration the water toys and entertainment systems to keep everyone happy.

Another essential element is the crew. “Whether it is for sales or charter,” says Ms Mediouni, a multi-talented crew is always worth

investigating. Many crew members have added skills and talents that they can bring on board including, personal trainers, professional masseuse and so on.” She also advises that it’s wise to charter a superyacht before actually buying one. “This way you have the experience of ownership but without the commitment upfront. It is important that you discover what you like, don’t like and what becomes a need.” Interestingly, superyachts’ exterior and interior designs are moving towards a more harmonious concept between the vessel and the sea.

By introducing layouts with more floor length glass windows for example, this ensures maximum light on board.

Ms Mediouni reports that superyachts over 70-metres hit a record high with 53 projects, one more than the previous year, but there’s still a steady popularity among 40-metre superyachts. “Superyacht support vessels have also become increasingly popular over the past few years,” she says. “They are very special, you can normally tell from

afar that it is a support vessel by its exterior design which is usually like that of an explorer yacht. However, make no mistake that the interiors are still top of the line in terms of luxury. This allows owners to enhance the yachting experience, whether it be to carry a helicopter hangar, extended tender and toys’ garage or extra cabins for further support staff.

“The rising need for reliable, seaworthy, low-fuel yachts, with lots of volume for their length, overengineered and lots of space for toys has many yacht enthusiasts looking at explorer yachts as their vessel of choice.

This allows its passengers to cruise into exotic locations that are usually off the beaten track. Here you can find the ultimate privacy and experience a part of the world not accessible to others, all the while enjoying high-tech and supercharged water toys.

“The trend is more about being more adventurous and exploring areas that are not possible by regular travel. Western Mediterranean is still the most popular cruising destination followed by the Adriatic for the summer and the Caribbean in winter.

However, we see an increased interest in remote and exotic locations that are not so commonly explored as well as a peaked interest in Asian and Indian Pacific destinations over winter as well as Antarctica exploration.” www.engelvoelkers.com/yachting

The devil is in the detail - there is nothing average about these yachts

Semi-custom yachts

Founded in 2010, Wider’s initial focus was on smaller day cruiser yachts of up to 42 feet. However, the intention was always to move into the larger superyachts and the company’s current range of yachts ranges from 130 – 165 feet. Its customers are truly international, coming from all over the world. Jeremy Roche, sales and marketing director for Wider, says, “The devil is in the detail. There is nothing average about these yachts. These are semi-custom yachts, much depends on the owner’s taste and decisions on interior.”

Yacht design and the technology used on board have both changed hugely in the last 10 years. “One good example is the beach club,” explains Mr Roche. “You can date a yacht of more than around eight years old as they will not have one. Wider has taken this a step further and dramatically opened this space to offer something truly in vogue but taken to the next level through the intelligent use of design.

“In terms of technology on board, just think back to the type of PC and mobile phone you were using 10 years ago – it’s another world. The philosophy with Wider is to embrace the new systems available and again this is reflected with our choice of diesel electric propulsion system. Five years ago there was little knowledge about this even if cruise ships and military vessels have been using it for decades.

Now, with huge changes in the automotive market and a greater general awareness of the impact on the environment, this system is becoming more and more common place with several of our competitors following suit.” www.wider-yachts.com

Home afloat When you live in a beautifully furnished property with a

stunning interior design, why should your superyacht be any less impressive? We consult two specialist companies for advice on creative interiors below deck

ounded by David Linley, 2nd Earl of Snowdon, in 1985, Linley is a company renowned across the world for fusing innovative design with superlative cabinet-making.

As well as creating exceptional furniture for homes, the company also undertakes commissions for superyachts. In 2010, Cunard commissioned Linley to design and make a 5.6 metre-high marquetry panel for the Grand Lobby of the new Queen Elizabeth. The result was a magnificent artwork depicting the port bow of the original Queen

Elizabeth viewed from sea level. It was intricately made using the technique of marquetry inlay using no less than nine different types of wood veneers.

The client’s vision of how they would like their home on the water to look is the most important starting point when designing furniture for a superyacht. Wendy Tytherleigh, Linley’s senior bespoke designer, explains, “We have to consider many different factors. We design with the client’s desires in mind and explore many different ideas to achieve the most anticipated outcome. Designing items that have secret compartments and beautifully considered compartmentalised drawers is something that we are very good at, and this skill aids us when designing if space is at a premium.

“On a more practical note, our knowledge of suitable materials that

achieve strength and rigidity helps us to design with consideration helping to achieve the client’s desire whilst also fulfilling more stringent specifications. If the yacht has to be MCA (Maritime & Coastguard Agency) compliant, veneers, adhesives, lacquers and fabrics have to be fire treated. Today’s yacht interiors are using a far greater variety of specialist finishes, metal resin effects, bleached and dyed veneers.”

Motor Yacht Jupiter is one of Linley’s most outstanding projects to date. “It included bulkhead marquetry application, marquetry art panels, fitted furniture with integrated mechanised systems and owner’s supply items such as dining chairs,” says Wendy.

“All designed with IMO PYC 4 (International Maritime Organisation Passenger Yacht Code) regulations in mind.” By following all these recommendations for placing comfort, style and safety to the fore, it would seem that a well-furnished superyacht can help to ensure that every voyage is a truly memorable experience. www.davidlinley.com

Vessel grandeur

Those visiting the Cannes Yachting Festival or Southampton Boat Show last summer may well have noticed the fruits of a new partnership between leading interiors firm Alexander James Interior Design and high-end yacht company, Sunseeker London Group. Drawing on 20 years of experience in creating award-winning interiors, the exclusive dressing of the yachts has offered an extra dimension to the work of the Alexander James Interior Design team.

Robert Walker, the company’s managing director and founder, explains the process behind this specialised form of interior design.

“When designing interiors for a superyacht, you have to ensure that the quality of materials and style of the interiors are reflective of the grandeur of the vessel. Yacht owners wish to feel the same level of comfort and quality when on their yacht as they do at home.

“The yachts for which we design the interiors are already finished to an exceptional standard, however we are able to further enhance their magnificence with soft furnishings

and accessories by using materials fitting to their rich specifications.

Plush, luxurious materials work best, they provide the quality and rich look that the yachts deserve. We use quality fabrics in our soft furnishings and bedding, as well as throughout our accessories.”

Yacht interiors have traditionally followed a naval theme, using colours taken from their surroundings, such as blue and green tones. “However, as yachts are seen as a second home for many of their owners, clients now look to select a design that is more fitting to their property interiors, making their yacht a real ‘home from home’,” says Robert. “We look to use varied colour themes in each of the bedrooms, drawing on richer, more vibrant colours to add more personality and distinction.

“We also use monochrome tones and varied prints and patterns to add a contemporary edge to some yacht interiors, also using faux flowers and sumptuous scents to bring life to each area of the boat. Yacht interiors will inevitably be driven by trends seen in the home. We expect to see yacht interiors adopting the anticipated interior trends of 2018 such as subtle animal prints, vivid monochromes, leaf and plant patterns and beautiful tribal influences.

“Even the largest of yachts can have small spaces for us to work with, so we are of course sometimes restricted with the level of accessorization we can deliver. Despite this, we make the most of each available space to add a richness to the interior that makes each boat so beautifully distinctive.”

So far, the Sunseeker 95 Yacht has proved one of Alexander James Interiors’ favourite designs. “We used stylish monochrome patterns in the salon, adding a contemporary touch with abstract patterns in the cushion fabrics,” says Robert. “The luxurious dining area was styled with a beautiful floral centre piece for an elegant touch. We styled the flybridge using quality fabric cushions and a high quality faux fur throw for added luxury. The master bedroom was designed using rich fabrics and luxurious accessories for added sophistication.”

Julia Bracco, agent at Immobilsarda, affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, says, “Marina properties represent some of the highest-priced markets for prime property across

the globe. In Sardinia, outstanding property close to the marina has a unique value as it represents a real trophy asset.

Costa Smeralda’s most vibrant and sought-after marina communities are those of Porto Cervo and Porto Rotondo where is possible to find exclusive villas, refined apartments and a few rare waterfront developments. These areas are a sweeping parade of restaurants with a lovely waterfront view, cafés, shops and boutiques.

“The port and village of Porto Cervo is where many Mediterranean yachts have moored over the decades. It is one of the Mediterranean’s best-equipped and most welcoming ports and can accommodate yachts of all sizes, including superyachts and hosts a number of world-famous races. These include the Loro Piana Superyacht, the Maxi Yacht Rolex Cup, the Rolex Swan Cup, and the Perini Navi Cup. Porto Cervo has maintained its traditional small-village charm, with its Piazzetta and narrow streets.” »

Ms Bracco reports that her clientele is mainly European, in particular North European (Swiss, German, Belgium, Austria, Scandinavia). “In recent years,” she says, “even Italian customers are revaluating Costa Smeralda as source of a good real estate investment and this trend is expected to continue well into 2018 – 2020. There is an increasing request for prime waterfront and exclusive locations with a consequent increase of price level. Beachfront location and direct beach access, are the most requested and important features increasing the value by over 50%. Additional features such as private docks, are rare and increase the value by 10%.”

Since launching in July 2010, Limassol Marina has met the increasing demand for waterside residences through the creation of a new yachting hotspot that caters to the wish lists of high net worth individuals. The marina was the first in the country to offer stopovers for superyachts benefiting both second-home owners and permanent residents after it opened to the public in 2014.

Epitomising the essence of ‘living on the sea’, a mere stroll from the city centre, the villas are also just metres away from the beach, and the development’s dining, shopping, fitness, leisure and cultural facilities.

Brands such as Graff, Ralph Lauren and Zilli are also testament to the development’s credentials as a key European destination for superyacht owners.

Andreas Christodoulides, CEO of the marina, says, “Limassol Marina is now earning a reputation as one of the most exciting and ‘must visit’ destinations in the continent.

Obtaining second citizenship to start a new life A number of nations now offer citizenship through Government approved property investment.

International Property & Travel magazine has launched International Property Citizenship Services and teamed up with the experts to highlight what countries are offering people this opportunity. In this issue we focus on St Kitts & Nevis to discover what is on offer

S

t Kitts & Nevis introduced an immigrant investment incentive program in 1984 but it was little used until 2008 when visa-free access to Europe was gained. Now it has become one of the most popular and best-known programs with several Caribbean islands following suit.

Therefore, the idea of gaining citizenship in another country is not new and the number of countries offering second citizenship is growing every year. These government approved programmes give people the option to relocate to a part of the world that offers them a new life in a country with political stability, better personal security and the opportunity to enjoy a more peaceful existence.

This service offered by the magazine provides free advice from experienced international professionals throughout the entire process of obtaining a Caribbean second citizenship through a Citizenship Investment Program (CIP). We have also linked with professionals based in Asia, Europe, and the Americas who are available for a free consultation and to guide investors through the procedures involved.

The team working with International Property Citizenship Services has processed over 300 clients in countries around the world through citizenship programs in the Caribbean and North America.

With a fully staffed office of international professionals based in Antigua and representatives in the other Caribbean CIP islands, International Property Citizenship Services provides the Licensed Agents and Authorized Representatives required by the West Indies governments for the citizenship investment promotion and processing.

Air access to this dual-island nation continues to grow with direct flights now available from London, Miami, New York, Atlanta and Toronto. On landing at St Kitts, the larger of these two beautiful islands, those travelling on to Nevis are transported by boat.

The CIP has spurred a great deal of development in St Kitts & Nevis over the last 10 years including: • The new Park Hyatt which has been financed entirely by CIP. Investors bought a Limited Partnership Share and receive a profit share and top tier membership to Park Hyatt’s loyalty scheme.

ne of the city’s most vibrant and sought-after communities, Dubai Marina is an extensive waterfront development. The focal point of the district is of course the marina, a beautiful man-made bay that leads out to the Arabian Gulf.

LuxuryProperty.com CEO and founder Jason Hayes, says, “The marina offers an exceptional lifestyle in Dubai, which cannot really be experienced anywhere else in the city. A beautiful boardwalk, a selection of fantastic restaurants offering an international range of cuisines, high-end shopping

destinations and a pristine beach are all located a few minutes’ walk from each other.

“This diverse lifestyle offering has attracted a diverse crowd as well, with residents hailing from across Asia, Europe and the US. For the past few years, Dubai Marina has consistently been rated as the most popular residential area in Dubai and, with stunning new developments like Marina Gate and the soon to be completed Bluewaters Island, I have no doubt that it will continue to maintain a very prime position among Dubai’s luxury neighbourhoods.”

Sailing Dubai Marina is adjacent to Jumeirah Beach Residence and close to the island development of Palm Jumeirah making it a perfect haven for yachting enthusiasts

The demographic of purchaser is varied and doesn’t necessarily have to be boat owners. Richard Paul from Cluttons Dubai explains, “Investors understand that any real estate that provides waterfront views and access is likely to come at a premium. Should the property come with vessel berths, I think this is taken as an additional benefit but not a focus from a purchaser point of view.

“Considering the sheer abundance of waterfrontage Dubai has, other than Dubai Marina, there are surprisingly limited berths available that are attached to real estate

schemes. In my opinion that will likely change, particularly with the opening of the Dubai Canal. Boat owners or aspiring boat owners still have to consider the relatively high costs of marina facilities in Dubai compared to that of Abu Dhabi and the Northern Emirates. Should the cost become competitive and the facilities at a suitable standard, I can only see that benefitting the real estate offering it fronts.”

As for future price indications, Faisal Durrani, head of research at Cluttons, advises that Dubai’s property market, like many other

major global cities, is going through a period of softening. “After spectacular growth following the city winning the rights to host the 2020 World Expo in 2013, values have fallen by almost 15% and now stand some 30% below their Q3 2008 peak.”

The decline however has not been uniform across the board, with established and sought-after locations such as Downtown Dubai and Dubai Marina seeing values holding relatively steady and unchanged. “The outlook for Dubai’s residential sales market is very much hinged on the city’s ability to absorb the significant supply »

pipeline of circa 134,000 units due for delivery between now and the end of 2020,” says Mr Durrani. “On balance, we expect that residential values will recede by a further 5% to 7%, but some locations such as Dubai Marina and Downtown Dubai, will likely see stability persisting.”

towers. Ranging from 53 to 64 storeys high, they feature stylish residences varying from contemporary apartments to expansive duplex penthouses.

Laid-back lifestyle

Simon Barry, head of new developments for Harrods Estates, has found that the marina is the preferred location for buyers from the UK while it also proves most popular with other nationalities. “Currently the majority of buyers are either from GCC countries or the India sub-continent – with a roughly 50:50 split,” he says.

“Living in the marina offers the unique mix of Big City and beachfront, which is Dubai’s signature look: sand, water and amazing architecture. It’s one of the few places in Dubai where you can enjoy walking with 7km of promenade along the basin and beachside with restaurants, cafés, retail and big hotels and apartment blocks. The atmosphere is more laid-back than Downtown Dubai with ex-pat professionals sipping coffee, enjoying brunch or smoking a shisha by the water, often in shorts and T-shirts.

“Dubai’s fiscal regime also makes it an increasingly attractive, taxfriendly place in which to live and do business. Though the UAE is seeking to diversify its economy away from oil, a recovery in oil prices from the lows of 2014 is already underway, with US reserves reducing and Saudi Arabia reportedly keen to see prices heading back towards $100 per barrel.

We believe this will inevitably have an inflationary effect on property prices in Dubai - and now could be a very good time to buy.”

ANNOUNCING A S IA PAC I F IC ’ S B E ST PROPERT Y PROFE SS I ON A L S

O

ur quest to find the most innovative, outstanding and quite simply, downright gorgeous, interior designs, developments, architectural projects and homes

for the 2018-2019 series of International Property Awards has begun! We have also set our sights on identifying the most

2018-2019

customer-focused real estate property agents and consultants with the finest portfolios imaginable.

The Asia Pacific region never fails to set a consistently high benchmark of quality and professionalism for others to attempt to exceed so prepare for heady amounts of ‘wow factor’ as you leaf through this brochure. Just a few top-scoring projects are highlighted here as a taste of what to expect: Cinema Exotica in China by Alexander Wong Architects has won a five-star award for its stunning leisure interior design.

Dozens of golden leaves or ‘petals’ spiral out from the centre of the ceiling, announcing to cinema goers that they have entered into the realm of fantasy.

Five-star status has also been awarded to Botanika Nature Residences in the Philippines by Filinvest Alabang. This lavish apartment surrounded by open courtyards, expansive lawns and a greenhouse brings nature into its urban environment. Villa in the Palms in Goa, India

by Abraham John Architects also has a five-star award for single residence architecture.

Enormous, 50-year-old coconut trees have dictated the concept and footprint of this villa which has been meticulously designed between them.

These and many other highest scoring Asia Pacific entrants will now compete against other equally successful companies from Europe, the UK, Africa, Canada, the USA, Central and South America, the Caribbean and Arabia to find the World’s Best in each category. This year’s grand final will be held on December 3rd at the Savoy Hotel in London where the ultimate winners will be revealed. Visit www.propertyawards.net for further information.

Many congratulations to all those listed in this publication,

Helen Shield

Tianjin Vantone Shopping Centre

E 2018-2019

  , DPWT Design is a renowned architectural practice that has grown from its base in Hong Kong to managing projects in China and Southeast Asia. The company is committed to creating innovative quality space suited to an individual’s needs. This ranges from a wealth of broad initial ideas right through to every minute detail in areas of architecture, interior design, planning and product design. The following three award-winning projects are all excellent examples of DPWT Design’s expertise.

Tianjin Vantone Shopping Centre is attached to the Vantone Centre, an office tower in the most prestigious area of the Central Business District surrounded by historical architectural monuments. DPWT was commissioned to design this shopping mall as today’s major developers not only

focus on building projects that fulfil market demands and meet customers’ needs and expectations, they also have to strengthen the brand by maintaining a high-profile design. It is therefore vital in promoting the launch of a new property such as a shopping centre to present a good mix of retails units alongside a unique thematic concept to attract shoppers.

Comprising four storeys, Tianjin Vantone Shopping Centre has a total area of almost 8,000m². It features a strong, coherent linkage to the office architecture in both form and materials and stands out distinctly in the district as an architectural landmark. The client’s intention is to deliver a luxurious, highend ambience throughout the shopping centre, giving utmost consideration to every visitor as well as to the staff of the attached office tower.

Office executives will be supported by different functions such as banks, restaurants and high-

end shops. Book shops and tea houses are also to be included to provide a more cultural focus.

The final client approved design is a hybridisation of the architecture and interior with the concept of an oasis of forest. A tree silhouette in an aluminium panel is clad at the internal façade of the shopping centre’s atrium.

This helps to tie in all four levels of shops in one complete piece of statement art. LED lighting concealed within the tree silhouette panel provides lighting and colour variation at night and also during seasonal festivals. The overall colour tone is beige and white to light up the whole shopping centre while a mix of four-colour marble on the floors is laid in an angled pattern. This echoes the building’s design concept and spatial arrangement.

The main focus of the shopping centre is the sun-filled atrium where people can look down from each floor to the social gathering place

at the ground level. An artistic chandelier is positioned above each entrance area to capture every visitor’s attention. Similar to a diamond hanging in the sky, these chandeliers reference the floor pattern but are constructed in a threedimensional way and cut in various angles to produce numerous reflections.

ABB Beijing Headquarter Office required a new workplace model to replace its original, rather conservative, design which lacked a sense of promoting communication and cooperation. As ABB is one of the most avant garde, energy saving technological companies in the world, it has extended its footprint in China over several decades. This lead to the need to consolidate all offices and laboratories in Beijing into a single headquarter office tower for easy management. The aim was also to manifest a new corporate image for ABB for the next few decades.

The client’s brief to DPWT Design was highly complex as each laboratory has its own individual requirement in terms of space and specific elements. Besides the normal requirement of workstations, reception, meeting rooms, conference room, storage, IT rooms and copy room, all laboratories also have to stack together within the building.

Therefore, the whole building has been divided into three different zones. The public zone 1F is where the reception is located and is freely accessed by all external visitors. The conference room and training rooms are in a semi-private area at 2F where visitors can be escorted for meetings. Zones 3-8F are private areas for ABB’s internal offices. This hierarchic arrangement places the most private area at the top while the basement houses the laboratories where no daylight is required.

The circulation in the breakout area of each office floor is inspired by the traditional

Beijing ‘hutong’ (narrow alley) spatial quality. In the past, these connected courtyard houses in the old Beijing city and became a social place for people to gather and chat.

Similarly, staff can wander through these corridors and meet with their colleagues for both formal and informal discussions, enjoy spontaneous conversations and share creative ideas. Additionally, as the office is open plan without any rooms in between, the space can easily be converted into different configurations according to current business needs. As there are seven floors of working areas, each has been designed with a house colour. Resembling a rainbow of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet, each colour applies to the wall of the quiet room, sofa fabric and notice board. This not only gives identity to each floor but also provides a highly energetic visual impact to each office.

Siemens Shenyang Office

Siemens Shenyang Office occupies an entire floor within a new office tower. It is a pre-requisite requirement nowadays that new offices are functional, efficient and able to deliver high productivity. Besides these practical considerations, a working environment that promotes the well-being of its occupants is an important issue when creating the design.

Achieving the correct balance between practicality and creativity is vital in establishing a working model for modern offices. Siemens, a leading technology giant in the world, always puts great emphasis on the importance of wellness in the workplace and DPWT Design has ensured that this factor is incorporated in its design concept for the Shenyang office.

The office contains three main components – a training centre and two separate offices with varying requirements. Office one is the smaller space and includes a workstation, meeting room storage, tea room and logo wall. The second

office has a total of 131workstations divided into 13 teams. The reception area is clad with corrugated linear aluminium panels and black spray painted glass. Its monolithic counter marble counter welcomes visitors and allows the colour of the Siemens’ logo to stand out above.

As communication is the most important aspect for the arrangement of new offices, this has been promoted by establishing an environment which includes private spaces and a positive and pleasant atmosphere. Various meeting areas have been provided throughout the office in enclosed rooms, such as telephone booths, meeting and project rooms and in more open spaces like collaboration booths, a seating area and breakout area. These are positioned at every corner of the office where people can meet, chat and enjoy social integration.

The whole office is designed in a modern, yet colourful tone to deliver the required relaxed yet high efficiency working environment.

   of the world’s largest international architectural firms, consistently winning multiple awards across a wide range of projects.

Baoneng Centre in Shenzhen, China combines a grand jewellery market and a world-class, vertical shopping mall. The design concept stems from an open jewellery box, creating a welcoming effect. The long façade is broken up, giving the impression of boxes containing different treasures. The adjoining, 300-metre high crystalline tower has been designed with a very simple façade, decorated with vertical fins and batched corners to emphasise its verticality.

Kuntai Wangjing Plot 2 Exhibition Centre in Beijing, China is located in the gateway of the district’s green park. Resembling a growing creature, its concept is ‘an urban transformation sculpture’. This fulfils all functional requirements across its different phases, creating a unique and attractive building. Complementing and enhancing the

curving façade of the adjacent Da Wang Jing mixed-use development, the curvature of the exhibition centre is reflected in its massing form and the feature green façade.

Taipei Minchuan Hotel Serviced Apartment in Taiwan is a new building respecting its urban context. Its cube volume building form blends in with the existing surroundings and also increases the efficiency of space within the apartment. Inspired by the connectivity and fragmentation of Taipei urban networks, the shifting and interlocking of the volumes reduces the pressure of building mass in the narrow plot and simultaneously enhances the richness of elevation.

The Cullinan in Chengdu, China is located close to the railway station and a number of highways. The main building is comprised of residential and serviced apartment units and represents at least 30% of the total development. The architecture is modern and builds a relationship between the project and local culture, while the apartment tower is a

of the Zhengzhou people. The Dengfeng Observatory created by Guo Shoujing of the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368 AD) measures the summer and winter solstices. Inspired by this observatory, Aedas took the basic principles of the observatory tower and applied them on the Double-Crane Lake Plaza. With the sunrise and sunset aligned with the site’s East/West spine at spring and autumn equinoxes, the architecture captures this solar alignment.

Guangzhou CCCC Nansha Pearl International Mixed-Use Project in China comprises an office tower, SOHO apartments, lofts, villas and office space. The surrounding scenery and Garden of Lingnan act as the major inspiration for the project. Its design takes full advantage of its waterfront location by directly integrating architecture and nature. The scheme embraces the wide riverbank as its background by introducing a body of water into the heart of the site. The geometry and location of the architecture maximises potential river views.

H P,  wholly owned subsidiary of Lembaga Tabung Haji, is an integrated property, project development and asset and facilities management group. Building on proven technical and commercial experience and expertise, it focuses on four core areas of business, namely property development, construction, project management and facilities management.

Mövenpick Hotel & Convention Centre MHCC KLIA is the group’s award-winning project located near Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA). It consists of three blocks of 333 hotel rooms spanning nine floors, a large convention centre with the capacity to seat 2,500 delegates and an outdoor exhibition space, all built on 17.725 acres of land in Sepang.

This world-class hotel and convention centre also serves as the country’s new Hajj operations centre, providing Hajj pilgrims with the best modern services and facilities. The complex is

specifically tailored by Lembaga Tabung Haji, a premiere and successful economic-based Islamic financial institution that provides investment services and economic opportunities while managing pilgrimage activities for the Malaysian Muslim community.

Right from the initial stages of the project, Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts, the Swiss-based international upscale hotel management company, was appointed as the operator of the new hotel and convention centre. A globally recognised brand, Mövenpick is experienced in running Shariah compliant hotels. It already manages hotels in the holy cities of Mecca and Madinah and the brand is well known to Malaysian pilgrims. Mövenpick has therefore been heavily involved in the design, layout and outfitting of the complex, working closely with TH Properties and the team of architects and engineers.

Mövenpick Hotel & Convention Centre KLIA is also targeting for Green Building

Index (GBI) Certified Rating in support of a greener development to reduce the life cycle cost of the complex. Ultimately, the project is intended to serve as a stunning new landmark for the area. Its external appearance is inspired by Islamic design while at the same time features contemporary and cutting-edge architecture. TH Properties has achieved this by fusing Islamic concepts such as ‘Ihram’ which symbolises purity with captivating modern designs such as the inverted Islamic arches for the hotel blocks. Pristine white was chosen as the colour for the entire complex, maintaining the overarching theme of purity.

Similarly, intricate Islamic geometry carved along walkways not only serve to filter sunlight and give privacy but is also a very Islamic element (termed ‘Mashrabiah’).

Mashrabiah was selected as the main element that transforms, natural daylight into a shading pattern that provides thermal comfort to the users in the building, thus

becoming the element that creates privacy to the occupants.

The use of Kufic calligraphy is another Islamic architectural element that was incorporated into the hotel’s build. This is one of the oldest calligraphic forms of the various Arabic scripts and it is used here to adorn the hotel walls as well as the Convention Centre hallways. Geometrical patterns are widely used within the building, not only as an architectural element but to create a shadow effect as well as becoming another shading device to offer protection from 60% of the heat. This in itself was a small engineering feat.

Another significant Islamic architectural element of the building is the overarching AlA’amida pillars. The arched column elements were adapted from the column in Alhambra, the Great Mosque of Cordoba, Spain. However, they have been simplified to look sleek and modern and are enforced with pearl white aluminium cladding and stainless steel strips.

A further outstanding feature of the hotel is the lancet arch design used as the main structure for the three blocks. Its unique shape and design posed quite a challenge to construct but the end result is stunning, both architecturally and visually.

The Al-Sahan, or courtyard, is a feature in every block to create the essence of landscaping within a building. This results in attractive spaces for activities, following the example of buildings in Middle Eastern countries. A skylight at the very top of each block brightens these courtyards with natural light and, as hotel rooms are positioned on both sides, guests have a clear view as they enter and leave. The hotel lobby is located within one of these courtyards, merging the outside with the inside and giving the impression of walking into the tropics. Each of the three courtyards has a different theme – there is the living lobby at reception; the spa and the garden café.

Hotel rooms range from 30.5m² for standard rooms up to 203m² for royal suite.

Swimming pools are gender-segregated and the two large pools are located on the hotel’s third floor. Guests have a choice of four restaurants including the aforementioned garden café. The others are Teh Tarik, which loosely translates to ‘Tea Time’, Stix and Shisha speciality restaurant and the Market Kitchen.

It was important that the design of the overall project was able to offer a high degree of connectivity. This is due to the fact that it is meant to serve as an integrated institutional and commercial development all under one roof. Given that the complex consists of three hotel blocks, the convention centre, Anjung Tinjau and the Astaka or Exhibition Pavilion (a sunken dome-shaped space surrounded by trees), connectivity between the blocks and smooth movement across the development were major priorities. Equally important

was the easy accessibility to and from the neighbouring Sultan Abdul Samad Mosque.

This has been provided by a sheltered pathway from the hotel to the mosque. Shuttle buses are also on standby to transport guests from the hotel to KLIA and vice-versa.

The entire complex is designed to be dual functional with the main priority being for pilgrims journeying towards Mecca to perform Hajj, while doubling up as a hotel to generate income all year round. This is to ensure that the complex is not left idle during Hajj off peak season. The 26,000m² Convention and Exhibition Centre is where pilgrims will be cleared by the authorities on their way to perform the Hajj. It will also be an important business draw as it features a 2,363m² columnfree ballroom, exhibition hall, multi-function rooms and boardrooms.

MHCC KLIA has been designed to replace the older Lembaga Tabung Haji complex in Kelana Jaya. This is closer to Subang Jaya

Airport that no longer schedules flights to Jeddah. Lembaga Tabung Haji felt that it was necessary to build a much more spacious, comfortable complex closer to KLIA with a significantly increased capacity to support over 1,500 pilgrims. This number is equivalent to dispatching two A380 aeroplanes for Hajj at the same time. These facilities include areas that have been separated with restricted access and infrastructure for baggage processing, immigration, Saudi Arabian visa application and approval etc. While this adds tremendously to the complexity of the project, as it is similar to constructing a small private terminal, it was a necessary requirement.

Featuring modern architectural elements with archways, courtyards, and spacious atriums intertwined with landscaped gardens and water features, Mövenpick Hotel & Convention Centre KLIA is destined to become a tourist attraction and provide an enthralling experience for its hotel guests.

It has completed a diverse scope of projects internationally ranging from small scale residential and show flat design to large scale commercial works such as corporate headquarters. PTang Studio has now added to a long list of previous awards with the following impressive projects.

Located at Discovery Park in Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong, The Pavilia Bay is a mixed-use development and sales office which has been designed by PTang Studio to resemble a prestigious, world-class shipyard. Cabin windows, a propeller and ship’s wheel are all examples of original components from yachts and contribute to the realistic simulation and ornamentation of the interior perfectly.

Elements of a shipyard are integrated into each area to fill the spatial experience with an air of fascination and surprise. These include the entrance, model zone, theatre, sales hall, visual reality room, corridor, lift lobby and show flat.

Rousing sounds of breaking waves greet customers and lead them through a tunnel with refracted lights giving a rippling effect.

Most importantly, by playing with the five senses, PTang Studio has found the key to achieving a distinctive simulation throughout the entire project.

Comb + Beijing is a clubhouse and sales gallery of around 9,000 square feet in the Fangshan District of Beijing. It is part of a world-class technology park which will ultimately cover an area of 3 million m². With China moving to the forefront of the global market, Comb+ will become the key driving

Celebrating this large scale, ground breaking development, PTang Studio’s design of the sales gallery is inspired by weathered rock. Strata and streamlines are used as the main design elements. This creates a strong visual impact that brings infinity to a limited space, generating a critical effect in enriching the aesthetic atmosphere and spatial quality as a whole. In the model zone, wind chime-shaped light installations hanging from the high ceiling draw attention to the model below. A subtler design provides higher privacy in the conference room while abstract wall paintings decorate the space and allow visitors to savour the artworks in a contemplative atmosphere.

A multi-functional living and dining area is arranged within an open space layout with no solid partitions. However, its large glass wine display case allows residents to embrace the social space for a range of gatherings, suiting both communal and more intimate events. The entire communal areas have been designed as an extension of the tenants’ own private homes with the aim of instilling a sense of community pride and ownership.

La Cresta is a low-density residential project in the new luxury sector of Kau To Shan in Sha Tin, Hong Kong. Located in the heart of the traditional mansion area, it is surrounded by lush greenery, offering a high degree of privacy to its highly desirable living spaces. Reflecting its prestigious location, this award-winning show apartment within La Cresta is an ultimate demonstration of a contemporary, luxurious Italian lifestyle.

PTang Studio has applied modern classic elements in design details as well as throughout textural material and furniture selections. In order to echo with the exterior landscape and create a tasteful and artistic scene, natural elements are derived and applied in the interiors through the use of natural stone and leather, a hand-drawn wall feature and carefully selected fabrics. The resulting distinctive spatial experience makes this three to fourbedroom unit particularly suited for families

looking for a spacious home with generous living areas.

La Cresta – House 3 is also located within the La Cresta development. The project’s masterplan combines apartments with a row of terraced houses and includes private amenities such as a residents’ swimming pool, underground parking and landscaped gardens. Drawing on the development’s concept of natural luxury within a cosmopolitan setting, House 3 has been designed by PTang Studio to be a beautiful, modern and exclusive luxury home.

This four-storey villa is based on family living and so the private quarters are placed on the upper floors, giving wide open views of the striking hillside through large windows.

The overall design palette uses a range of deep browns to replicate the warmth and elegance of coffee, complemented by colours that enhance the home’s overall smooth tones and luxurious ambience.

Leedon Residence

P 2018-2019

 G D creates luxurious interiors for residences, show suites, hospitality and offices.

The firm prides itself on design customised to individual requirements and ingenious planning for maximum spatial functionality.

The multi-award winning company has enjoyed further accolades for the two following projects.

Leedon Residence is one of the largest freehold residential developments in Singapore’s District 10. Within it and accessed by a private lift, the 2,200 square foot apartment named ‘Mine the Gap’ consists of a private lift lobby, dining and living areas, a gourmet kitchen, wet kitchen, three bedrooms and a large balcony. The name is a play on words derived from the client’s line of work in the coal mining and railway business. It also alludes to the careful attention paid to the client and his family that reveals itself in the many custom design features of the

apartment. All have been tailored by Prestige Global Designs to facilitate the family’s specific lifestyle preferences.

The firm was commissioned to transform the apartment into a luxurious interior that is both cosy and statement-making. In order to achieve this contemporary luxury theme, Prestige Global Designs used materials and elements such as full-height veneer wood panels, marble-clad walls and two-toned leather furniture. Darker, neutral shades are the main colour palette. However, coloured crystal accessories, rose gold frames, Portoro Gold marble and rose gold Louis Poulsen lamps create an elegant and refined atmosphere.

As a result of a holistic design approach, the apartment projects an attentive vision of a statement-making style and detailed craftsmanship, bringing effortless luxury into a domestic setting. With a cohesive balance of rich textures, finishes and colours, Prestige Global Designs ensured that all design

elements were carefully detailed, revealing an eye for detail and precision right down to the minutest millwork joineries.

The Corals at Keppel Bay is a prestigious residential development in Singapore offering exclusive waterfront living. Its 5,000 square feet penthouse is accessed by private lift and provides breath-taking views of Keppel Bay, the sea and Singapore’s premier island resort, Sentosa. The property has a single-storey layout with four bedrooms, a family area, gourmet kitchen and spacious living, dining and private outdoor areas.

The client’s brief was for Prestige Global Designs to create a luxurious and longlasting interior that would also prove highly comfortable for a family of three. Aptly named ‘Jewel by the Sea’, the company increased the functionality of all the living areas through careful space planning, selection of furniture and lighting and customised finishes. Consistent with its contemporary

luxury theme, simplicity, subtle sophistication, texture, neutral main colours and clean lines feature throughout.

Decorative and luxurious touches such as crystal chandeliers from Baccarat, Longhi armchairs and a dining table from Malerba to name but a few, combine to create an elegant and refined atmosphere. The client had expressed a preference for gold within the design but because of the penthouse’s close proximity to the sea, the use of metal was kept to a minimum. Instead, Prestige Global Designs meticulously introduced gold through the use of other materials throughout the entire penthouse. These included decorative gold wooden frames, ebony veneer with gold streaks, bronze tinted mirrors, gold faux leather and gold decorative accessories. A further highlight of the overall design is a walkin wardrobe specially created for the client’s wife which perfectly reflects her love of the Jimmy Choo shoe brand.

 G is an internationally accredited five-star property developer in Australia known for its innovative designs and qualities. Being equipped with multidisciplinary knowledge, Bridgehill aims to deliver built environments to its highest standard, comfort and value for money. The company believes that property developments should not only be crafted to suit their environments but also tailored for various needs. Bridgehill constantly explores new ideas to deliver the best property developments without compromising natural and cultural contexts. Financial return, social liability and innovation are always equal-weighted considerations for every project.

‘Beyond development’ is the company’s philosophy and ‘Esprit by Bridgehill’ is a prime, high-end example of this. Ideally located at Mascot near Sydney CBD, the

mixed-use development covers an area of 14,237m². It has 16 levels and comprises three buildings of commercial and residential units with a communal room in each block.

Bridgehill’s main considerations were to create a harmonious architectural complex without losing any of its individual identity. A highdensity design also had to be achieved without compromising Australia’s low-density culture and development cost had to be balanced against architectural innovation.

Bridgehill opted to develop a ‘U’-shaped massing model in order to retain a linear park arrangement and to increase both floor space ratio and sunlight. The company also created a new and innovative concept called an ‘elevated street’. By widening internal corridors with natural light penetration, introducing two-storey high vertical slots and combining a luxury lobby with a colourful

light box conveying all four seasons, each level becomes a residential street. This option successfully won approval from the council although it exceeded the standard floor space ratio by 25 per cent.

The development’s final approval includes 485 apartments, 1,850m² of retail shops, 716 car parking spaces and a gross floor area of 53,815m². It also includes disabled access ramps, lifts security car parks, communal gardens, a barbecue area, meeting rooms, visitors’ car parks, luxuriously furnished entry lobbies, artistic lift lobbies and street-like corridors at each floor.

Esprit’s innovative architectural design has resulted in remarkably versatile interiors across a wide range of highly flexible apartments. Featuring spacious living spaces, many are dual key apartments alongside a wide choice of one and two-bedroom plus

study options. There are also several twostorey terrace-style apartments with private street addresses. Oversized balconies provide garden-like views and perforated metal screen can be opened or closed to control both the sun and privacy as wished. This blurring of the boundaries between the inside and outside makes the already generous living areas feel even larger.

Public arts are an important feature in large scale residential developments and Esprit is no exception. Artist, Mark McClelland has proposed an artwork named ‘Ebb and Flow’ for the linear park. It pays tribute to the importance of water in the evolution of the Mascot area as well as the nearby airport through flowing and spiralling forms. Made from steel plate, Ebb and Flow will also draw on the industrial history of the site to create a stunning and usable contemporary artwork.

Due to this prime position, Concordia has patented ‘Cotai South’, which is referred to as the geographical location for Sky Oasis, plus the promotional slogan ‘Luxury Living at Cotai South’, both of which feature in all marketing materials. This is in order to highlight the development’s uniqueness and enable potential buyers to make an association with the wellknown Cotai Strip.

Following the success of Concordia’s One Oasis development, Sky Oasis is part of Phase 4 of the project. It comprises three high-rise towers with approximately 500 apartments

and a total floor area of 70,000m². As the site already includes 12 towers of One Oasis, a major challenge was to ensure that there were unobstructed views and ample open spaces for Sky Oasis. With this in mind, the central open space is a continuation of the site’s natural surroundings and also plays an important role in allowing natural ventilation and lighting to the residential towers.

The three Sky Oasis towers and 12 completed One Oasis towers spread out in a horseshoeshaped layout over the central axis of the site.

Thanks to the comprehensive master-planning and ingenious architectural design, each tower is able to enjoy extensive views of the natural surroundings. These include green mountains, blue ocean, shimmering Cotai Strip and inner South European themed landscaped garden, mingling with resort living and city living. In particular, the Sky Oasis plot is rectangular;

Consisting of four high-rise towers and four low-rise towers, the residential development offers a total of 900 units. The project is located within Kai Tak Development (KTD) in Kowloon East, which is regarded as the next central business district (CBD2) of Hong Kong.

K.CITY is the first project in Hong Kong to introduce a ‘co-working lifestyle’ as the major motif for a residential development. It targets buyers born in the 1980s and 1990s, who embrace the notion of smart living and enjoy social gatherings and collaboration. The clubhouse is specifically designed to facilitate

collaboration and creativity with open spaces, vibrant colours, and modern décor for a comfortable setting, on top of complimentary Wi-Fi to boost productivity.

Furthermore, the décor at K.CITY explores the notion of new perspectives. Authentic aircraft parts are reclaimed and reshaped into stylish handcrafted furniture, namely as a tribute to the site’s aviation heritage and engineering. Smart living facilities are planned to echo ongoing smart city developments as well: mailboxes are keyless, and each residential unit has a Samsung smart doorlock installed, allowing tech-savvy residents to enter via fingerprint, access code, Bluetooth or RF (radio-frequency) card.

Ultimately, K.CITY’s overarching tagline, ‘The Inspiration Hub’, embraces the rejuvenation of KTD and the reinvention of possibilities.

Design Intervention had been inspired by a television drama set in an Art Deco hotel

featuring curved walls accented by horizontal lines. With this in mind, curved walls were used to soften the kitchen’s hard lines and imbue a warm and feminine ambience. They also echo the rounded forms of the furnishings in the living zone, integrating the two beautifully.

Unique bathing experiences were of paramount importance to the client and so a significant portion of floor space has been allocated to create an ultimate retreat. A key requirement was that the master suite flowed seamlessly between the bathing and sleeping areas without any doors. Design Intervention eschewed traditional hard finishes such as tiles and marble and opted for an acrylic solid surface which is warmer and softer to the touch. This was thermally shaped to give continuous, bespoke organic forms and exude the feminine softness required.

The lighting design is also a key design feature of this home. Throughout the entire

process, Design Intervention has employed the use of creative lighting to imbue the apartment with an inherent romance and warmth.

A particular innovation was to transform furniture pieces into lamps introducing low level lighting without introducing additional items that could clutter the living space.

SLB Office Singapore is owned by a fashion design and manufacturing company in the midst of the Central Business District. As the business is family run, the design brief was for an environment that would reflect their personality. Rather than exuding a corporate feel, they wanted the workspace to be the embodiment of their products.

The office enjoys stunning cityscape views and so Design Intervention ensured that the layout allowed each office space and the conference room to have the best of these vistas. The sample measuring area was also situated in front of the large windows to utilise maximum natural daylight.

Early Learning Village

The Early Learning Village is a collaboration between Singapore’s Australian International School and the Stamford American International School. At 50,000m² with five buildings, more than 100 classrooms and a capacity for 2,100 children, it is the world’s largest pre-school space. Design Intervention was tasked with the interior design of the public spaces as well as the libraries.

The client brief was to create inspired spaces for young learners, incorporating interactive elements. Both schools subscribe to the world-famous Reggio Emilia philosophy of incorporating the environment as a third teacher. Hence, the overall design softens the architectural colossus to create friendly, intimate spaces that will delight and excite small children and also appeal to their parents. Each school was given its own identity and reflects their individual cultures whilst ensuring a balance in the level of execution.

   of 8.27 million, Nanjing is the only super-city in eastern China, with a global finance and trading hub. In the centre of the Hexi Central Business District stands One Sky Villa, a revolutionary multiple high-rise development of luxury residential properties to accommodate the region’s burgeoning elite real estate market.

Careful planning has made the most of the space available while adhering to local laws and regulations. The result is a near 100% utilisation ratio without compromising on quality and the living experience. One Sky Villa will be created by SCG – one of China’s leading construction firms that supplies combined design, building and maintenance services.

The design concept is derived from traditional Chinese culture, incorporating

humanity and heritage. In particular, the notion of the ‘auspicious cloud’ informs the design and layout – a traditional reference to good luck and fortune. The 20 buildings comprising One Sky Villa are set within dynamic landscaping to foster community and relaxation. Each tower features a rooftop sky garden and swimming pool. At ground level, each building includes dual lobbies to ensure an experience of luxury hospitality inspired by international hotels.

Floorplans of the villas cover three variations – one Flat Villa and two Sky Villas that extend across two or three floors.

Each villa includes its own private sky garden able to cater for extensive plantings. A wide range of options are available for villa customisation, using premium products to match the buyer’s desires.

Due to the site’s long street frontage of 83 metres and depth of just 12 metres, the development was designed in two blocks to reduce the building bulk. The higher of the two forms the residential tower while the lower is for the clubhouse, each connected by a footbridge. The design team has also created an attractive communal garden at podium level bringing nature into urban living.

No. 456-462A Sai Yeung Choi Street North has been designed with inspiration sought from its unique location at the interface of a natural hill slope and a vibrant urban neighbourhood of Hong Kong. The result is a tasteful fusion of urban and natural elements. This is most clearly

upgrade the neighbourhood and create a health and lifestyle destination for the city.

Park One in Hong Kong offers a combination of commercial, residential and leisure sections within the development. Its aim is to optimise the living environment for occupants as well as provide a retail, food and beverage experience to the neighbourhood.

The project faces Nam Cheong Park and Jade Market and is surrounded by low-rise buildings enabling residential units to enjoy open sea and mountain views. Instead of constructing several long buildings along the full length of the street, Henderson Land has designed one major tower on a podium. This creates a smaller footprint, avoids a ‘wall effect’ and impacts less on the view from surrounding buildings.

Edgy living by the park best describes the design concept of No.13-23 Jupiter Street

These include its engaging retail frontage at the ground floor as well as a people-friendly environment throughout the building’s design and finishes.

Creating a more engaging massing form, the podium levels have offsets and planters which create a playful and visually appealing image.

Design ideas for the façade include minimalism, transparency, reflection, metallic, lighting, sharp lines and greenery.

carpark podium. The design maximises all open-to-sky areas to create generous amenity spaces set in gardens and pools for common leisure use. The project is defined by three distinct amenity layers – Raintree Deck on the second storey, Club Terrace on the third and Sky Terrace on the eighth.

Taking advantage of the majestic raintrees, the Raintree Deck is a multifunctional open-air space. It has been sensitively designed around the trees to string together a series of play, exercise, rest and gathering spaces along the riverfront.

The Club Terrace is a series of three water courtyards designed around the concepts of Sanctuary, Plaza and Gallery, while the Sky Terrace offers residents an elevated village environment in which to engage in a diverse range of activities.

Euroville Convention Hall has been designed to offer a new experience to both residents and the nearby community as a public venue for social events. In order to harmonise the whole architecture of the Euroville area, including Borey Peng Huoth The Star Platinum Euroville and the Euro Park, the Convention Hall has been designed with a combination of Khmer and European architectural styles.

This is the largest religious monument in the world and sets up a design philosophy of celebrating traditions and community events for the Convention Hall.

The iconic tower is envisioned to be a timeless landmark with a well-balanced composition of base, shaft and 154-feet tall spire that enriches the skyline of the city.

As the latest Grade-A office tower to be unveiled in the heart of the Central Business District, JKG Tower is compliant with MSC Standards, accredited with Green Building Index (GBI) Malaysia and BCA Green Mark Singapore (Gold) certifications. The 32-storey tower, which is just over 700 feet high, has been designed with grandeur in mind with a commanding presence that sets it apart from other office buildings in Jalan Raja Laut. As

the intention was to create a contemporary yet classic and timeless look, the tower features mostly clean lines, with steel and glass dominating. It also includes a 13-storey elevated car park and two levels of basement car park beneath. An elevated, air-conditioned pedestrian link bridge is provided to connect the office tower to the ancillary carpark block for users’ convenience.

The south-eastern entrance, which faces Jalan Belia, is striking by itself, featuring a dramatic porte-cochere leading into the tower’s main 25-foot high grand lobby.

Installed with 12 high-speed elevators, the lobby exudes a stylish and voguish welcome.

It incorporates a prestigious, high quality interior finishing to create a grand and stately atmosphere equivalent to a Grade A office.

Laut is slightly smaller but both vehicular drop-off areas are fitted with wide and deep canopies for weather protection.

Providing a truly versatile corporate workspace equipped with intelligent technologies, JKG Tower is an ideal address for multi-functional businesses. It provides more than 390,000 square feet of leasable space within three distinct zones: low, mid and high. Each floor has 14,250 square feet of office space, with flexible layouts to suit differing business needs. The developer’s own headquarters will occupy the top portion of the office tower with rental offices housed in the lower portion. The headquarters and rental office floors have the benefit of separate ground floor entrances and drop-off areas. There are also two separate receptions provided serving the guests and visitors on Ground and Level

1 entrances respectively. Disabled access is available at both entrances to the foyer.

The design is inspired by world-class commercial facilities around the globe and particularly on the architectural styles of art deco. This style is defined by a high level of ornamentation, generally in bright, metallic colours, that features sunbursts, zigzags and other dramatic shapes which often gives the building a flattened appearance. Therefore, the direction of the design was to produce a grand and timeless design that would be modern with simple exteriors. This allows the primary focus to fall purely on the streamlined shape of the building, symbolically suggesting the speed of industrial progress. The architectural design also relies heavily on vertical elements that emphasise height, creating the impression that this modern building is racing towards the sky.

Located in Jalan Jelatek at the heart of Kuala Lumpur, this majestic development was inspired

by Pablo Picasso, one of the 20th century’s most influential artists. This stunning high-rise offers glorious views of the iconic Petronas Twin Towers. The local business district and amenities are just a short walk away. The design brief was to create an architecturally appealing residence, which benefits from low operational costs and energy efficiency. Pablo Picasso’s Analytic Cubism style, developed between 1908 and 1912, with neutral monochrome colours provides the inspiration for the magnificent external structure. Diamond shapes adorn the

external towers and create a very contemporary and sophisticated demur.

On entry to the Picasso Residence, you cannot fail to notice the two exquisite condominium towers with their stunning façades. Each tower consists of 38 levels with one level below ground. Tower A comprises eight units per level and tower B has six. The grand lobby welcomes you with an air of opulence and elegance. A rich, warm colour palette is complemented with the use of dark wood fixtures. Step in to an apartment and find yourself immersed in a luxurious but calm and relaxed setting. Each room reveals a gorgeous dark and cream interior, creating a relaxed feeling, perfect to return to after a busy day.

Modern and contemporary appliances can be found throughout each residence. Floor to ceiling windows allow natural daylight to bathe

The client’s vision was to develop ‘City of Dreams’, an outstanding entertainment complex including casinos, hotels, retail arcades and speciality restaurants on Cotai Island. As part of this new complex, the client wanted to create an exclusive Chinese restaurant for VIP patrons and their guests.

Inarc was thus commissioned to design ‘The Treasure Palace’.

As the venue is located on the ground floor and mezzanine floor of the entertainment complex, its design capitalises on both

the daylight factor and picturesque views overlooking the adjacent lake. The resulting restaurant has been designed to accommodate approximately 360 people in both open dining areas and five unique private dining rooms of varying sizes. It was decided that different dining moods should be provided for both lunch and dinner experiences as well as a teamaking ceremony exhibition counter.

Custom designed, red and gold ‘swimming fish’ inspired sculptural pendant chandeliers have been created for each seating bay in the large open dining area. Similar but smaller white chandeliers were made for each of the private dining rooms – both versions are backlit by programmable LED lights. Symbolising good luck and fortune, they form stunning centrepieces to this superb dining venue.

It selects prime locations suitable for four and five-star hotels with a high chance of expecting capital gain in the future.

Bluphere Pattaya is located in Pattaya, one of Thailand’s most popular beachside tourist destinations. Managed by Best Western Premier Collection, it offers a superb selection of 195 one-bedroom units, each set out in 21.7 to 26.2m² of international hotel living space.

Coupled with intelligent master planning and considerations made for the environment and sustainability, BluPhere Pattaya presents a lowrise, eight storey design. The hotel is set amidst

the harmony of ocean views and the hinterland and was designed under the concept ‘resort style and tropical garden’.

Aluminium composite was used as a main material on the façade and this calm and reserved dark grey exterior makes visitors want to take a peek inside. A solid ‘cube’ has been carved out of the central part of the building to continue this calm look from the outside.

Habitat Group has then sought to create an isolated ‘realm’ that envelops guests as they enter the building. On entering through the double height hall, the internal atrium façade, which lights up at night with a slight blue tint, creates an aurora-like backdrop to the main atrium forming a main attraction.

  M, Nomad Design creates innovative yet functional concepts for private residences, restaurants, retail outlets, offices and commercial projects. Its award-winning interior design for the private apartment, The Rhythm of Materiality, was commissioned by a couple with a daughter. Their brief was for Nomad Design to create a home that would exude both harmony and elegance.

The two-bedroom apartment is welcoming on arrival with a bright foyer, while an aesthetic partition divides the entrance and living area.

An open kitchen features an island counter with a breakfast bar and dining area alongside.

Next to this is a cabinet which conceals a fish tank, while in the living area, a TV wall

matches the cabinet for space cohesion. One of the challenges was to install a light trough.

However, as the ceiling was too low, Nomad Design cleverly combined the light with the cabinet making the ceiling appear much higher.

Design highlights include the use of different materials to appeal to all five senses.

A touch of blue wallpaper creates calm, the partition made of teak and semi-shiny steel combines soft and hard textures while the sleek marble countertop reveals the beauty of nature.

A hanging metal chain chandelier draped randomly, whispers gently when a breeze enters the room. These materials create a harmonious space with their various characters and textures, just as a family with its different members lives together amiably.

The aim was to create a high-end, tasteful development of 12 pool villas and a clubhouse that would appeal to modern and successful business owners. While it was to be spacious and impressive to reflect their professional standing, The Honor Residence had to offer maximum privacy and provide a unique living experience close to the city’s Central Business District.

A special requirement and challenge was to preserve the three giant rain trees at the front of the site to add a serene atmosphere to

the development. Each unit has been planned with a ‘U-shaped’ layout to create its own courtyard and provide additional privacy for every individual house. The exterior wall of the second floor features lava stone cladding which appears to be floating, yet creates a simple, solid geometry. Interlocking the stone frame, a wooden box and screen is introduced for sun shading and to blend in with the natural surroundings.

Interiors feature high ceilings with a wide span, made possible by a post tension structure system, and a column-free floating box above the swimming pool. An open plan layout also allows living spaces to flow freely from one function to another.

The two award-winning cinema projects featured here are excellent examples of the company’s expertise.

The design concept for ‘Sketchy Archy, Emperor Cinemas’ in Hong Kong stems from Emperor Cinema itself which is within the aptly named Entertainment Building, dating from 1846. Its first cinema was constructed there in 1928 and since then the building has seen many different uses and changes before a cinema emerged once again. Oft Interiors envisaged numerous architectural plans being sketched over more than a century of time.

Hence, plain colours and sweeping lines were used throughout the cinema’s striking interior design to mimic the very art and essence of freestyle pencil sketching.

‘Spirted Home, Palace Cinemas’ in Shanghai, China features a Sacred Tree in the centre of its lobby. This has been created by installing a ceiling feature with swirling curves, giving a distinct forest vibe and depicting the growth rings on trees. The design concept has been inspired by one of the greatest works of the Japanese animated film director, Miyazaki Hayao, which sets the mesmerising story in a magnificent forest.

In a world of nature and wildlife, trees are the most populated beings and so wood and wooden surfaces are the main materials used in this cinema.

 L  commissioned to extend the award-winning Open House: Intimate Home, situated in Damansara Heights, Kuala Lumpur. Ensuring privacy in a high-density neighbourhood and providing multiple family functions within a site smaller than a tennis court were the main challenges.

Innovation led to the flexible façade screen, which combines the use of aluminium frames on a steel structure while utilising 9,000 strips of locally-sourced Merpauh tropical hardwood.

Acting as a heat and light filter, the screen wraps around the upper two levels, providing intimacy with an option for openness, with sliding and swing doors to juxtapose against every window and door of the main building envelope, whilst also engendering a singular building aesthetic and optimising environmental sustainability.

The façade screen consequently allowed more use of glass, especially at the double-

height bookshelf-lined open study area. This increased natural light penetration, especially to areas deeper within the building envelope as well as to the lower levels (crucial given the site’s relatively lower ground level). At ground level, this led to a hybrid internalexternal space achieved by drawing in curated landscaping – including a 5-meter high green wall at the rear courtyard – into the open living and dining spaces.

Taking all of this together – innovations in the façade screen design and construction coupled with complementary use of glass and greenery – managed to achieve the client’s preferred trifecta of providing multiple function family spaces that are private and intimate, creating open and juxtaposed spaces for entertaining, and achieving, wherever possible, a high degree of environmental sustainability.

The client, Thai traditional herbal products manufacturer Wangprom, required its 350m² office to be redesigned to give it more space and meaning.

The aim was to build the brand’s new image which has been built on its origin in the 80s.

By using a twist of local elements with a contemporary design process and context, the main concept became ‘Modern Sampran’. An open plan design provides maximum flexibility of the office space, enabling it to be extended in the future while radiating a relaxed atmosphere

which is more like a home or café. Innovatively, a mirror has been used as the support for the reception counter, creating a stunning first impression that the table top is floating on air.

As Wang means palace and Prom means Brahma goddess in Thai, the existing columns and beams have been finished in a dark wood veneer, inspired by the local palace from the 80s. The brand’s corporate colour of dark green has been used for the walls and fabrics, while hand-painted herbal illustrations and certificates adorn the walls. Customised wallpaper featuring many different types of herbs has also been placed in every part of the office including the pantry and restroom, reflecting the ingredients used in Wangprom’s products.

Its continued expansion inevitably lead to the need for new offices, creating the perfect opportunity to extend Bareo’s skills into architectural design, taking total control of its destiny.

Incorporating fundamental concepts from the ancient Chinese philosophy of Feng Shui, design cues were taken from the ideas of bubbles and sponges to meet the basic element of ‘water’, complementing the dominant ‘earth’ element of Bareo’s founder. This has translated to gentle, curvaceous forms utilising insulation foam and FSC wood that avoid sharp edges and corners, with double skin facades sporting rounded cutouts over large glazed areas.

Careful adherence to the flow of Qi encourage a flow of money and prosperity through the positioning of the main office areas. Seven entrances fulfil specific functions, covering staff, visitors and services.

Temperature management is a major factor in Thailand, so the physical building design is intended to minimise heat uptake, supporting air conditioning and reducing energy usage.

The building includes a cafeteria and fitness area for staff, ensuring all their wellness needs are met. The office also incorporates a luxurious residential space on the second floor, with a sweeping spiral staircase connecting to the open-plan living area.

The end result is a striking and eminently usable building that will take Bareo into the next few decades of existence.

The Galleria is a sales showroom for BSG Property, the property development arm of Boon Siew Group – Eowon took control of both architectural and interior design. Situated along the prominent Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah in Penang, The Galleria’s concept is built upon a series of unique geometrical compositions, which begins with the building structure and frame and is echoed throughout its interior design and furnishing.

Inspired by the concept of a glowing lantern, using hidden backlit LED strips and

recessed lighting, the building stands out from the colonial-style and corporate buildings in its vicinity.

Visitors are presented with a striking Eiffel White Volakas Marble reception counter, creating an immediate impression of luxury and prestige. Inside, vertical infinity rods subtly separate discussion areas from the main gallery while maintaining the perception of a large space. Diagonal elements and the use of balau timber create harmony with the external forms while soothing wooden laminates are contrasted against industrial blacks of raw oxidised steel, cementitious flooring and steel columns. The extensive use of triple volume glazing circumvents the need for artificial lighting during daylight hours, creating a bright, welcoming space to promote BSG Property’s latest developments.

Their project at Park Avenue occupies the highest storey of the estate, with high ceilings and a glass wall looking over the city. The clients were a couple and their 15-year-old son, looking for a shared space for different purposes, including a living area, quiet study and a piano room.

The design uses simple background tones – white lime washes and light grey walls that contrast with sleek black furniture. Doors are concealed in feature walls to create a seamless flow. Unnecessary partitions from the original layout were removed to create a more open

layout, allowing light to flood the rooms; multiple movable partitions permit separation when needed. A particular emphasis was placed on increasing the usable floor area by creating verticality – with the very high ceilings, multi-level platforms could be created, generating more space and allowing additional storage.

The master bedroom is warmly welcoming, with wooden textures and an ingenious raised platform under the bed concealing storage.

Private living zones use more saturated, darker colouration, while the son’s room incorporates his preferred turquoise shades. Wooden furniture, linen upholstery and custom-made furnishings maintain an air of the natural world without deviating from a modern style.

The final design combines sophistication with comfort, homeliness and clean, engaging lines.

Although the developers Sun Group had an initial master plan, this was somewhat disconnected so Darkhorse were brought in to create an overall landscaped resort of thatched villas with links between each zone through continuous corridors leading back to the extensive beach frontage. These landscaped

corridors both applied order to the sequential planning of the site and ensured visual connections back to the sea. Each alignment alternates between ‘movement’ and ‘resort play’ to allow good access to all parts of the site and create key locations for all resort facilities at logical locations.

The range of villas and facilities incorporate strong frames and walls built of local stone to withstand the winds and humidity of Phu Quoc. Thatching is overlaid and secured to the in-situ frames as a way of providing the visual cues sought by the clients and owners whilst providing resilience and longerlasting architecture. Villas typically have three to four bedrooms, offering flexibility of accommodation for visitors, and are positioned to take advantage of the extensive plantings.

With a low density, only 25% of the area is dedicated to the condominium buildings; the rest is used for amenities and road networks. Naturally ventilated hallways permit free flow of air, with light wells and windows bringing natural light.

Apartments include studio, one, two and three bedroom units across a variety of floorplans.

Ideal for new families or single professionals, Seawind provides a resort-like environment and facilities against its beautiful backdrop. A beachside atmosphere is evoked through plantings, with undulating waves of salt-tolerant coastal shrubs bordering the foot of each tower. An exclusive clubhouse, half-Olympic sized swimming pool, sporting facilities and a gazebo provide relaxation for residents.

The development is also an ideal investment opportunity, with unit prices having doubled since initial sale. Buyers may maximise their returns through leasing out their properties, making Seawinds an attractive long-term proposition.

   ‘Ice City’, Harbin is the capital of Heilongjiang, China’s northernmost province and houses an expansive, impressive opera house. Set amongst the city’s untamed wilderness and frigid climate, the building has a crystal-like purity and transparency, blending in with the surrounding nature and topography. The challenge for Beijing United Artists was to reveal the purity and clarity of this space, while enriching the experiences of visitors.

They worked closely with the architects, MAD, to realise the ultimate vision of this flagship project.

Externally, a great pyramid of twinkling glass roofs has been created with quartered jewel-like faceted windows. By day, reflection and refraction of sunlight causes a glittering

effect; at night this is supplemented by LED lighting bars to create a bright glow, attracting attention from far away. These also bring light inside, generating a welcoming ‘light mat’ in the entrance, through to indirect lighting as visitors progress further in to the building.

Hidden pinhole downlights and fibre-optics provide general lighting throughout.

Every elegant detail is delicately designed, inspired by ice, ripples and stars for an ultramodern crystalline approach. In the VIP area of the main theatre, a glowing diamond is suspended above the mezzanine, lit by custom RGB LEDs that can morph from starry white to warm amber according to the season or event.

Harbin Opera House will stand as a marker for the ages and the lighting innovation throughout will make it shine even brighter.

Its award-winning interior design project, Brasserie...the Restaurant, is on the first floor of one of Lahore city’s most popular shopping malls and restaurant hubs. Its owners wanted to create a hip yet cosy restaurant space, introducing terrace seating to the mall and capturing the view of one of the city’s most beautiful roads, Main Boulevard.

The client’s brief was for the Brasserie to be designed in a way that would unify the café and a la carte elements, creating indoor and outdoor seating areas with a sense of progression from one space to the next. The target clientele are bankers and corporate staff

from offices surrounding the mall as well as the younger generation which flocks to the laser tag avenue next door.

Zasa’s design objective was to preserve the vernacular by recreating an old world, rustic ambience that would impart a sense of industrial chicness. Hence the choice of materials was reclaimed wood, blackened steel, concrete flooring with a hint of colour and burnt bricks. All finishes are natural and raw to create a casual atmosphere while also amalgamating soft hues of sophistication for fine dining. The visual intrigue of the Brasserie is further enhanced by the use of antiques, custom artwork, lighting and accessories, all featuring a mood of rustic refinement.

Working in constant unison with professionals of multiple disciplines allows the company to transcribe concept to reality, providing solutions to a spectrum of challenges that range in form, application, function and scale. Twist and Shout, an award-winning project by MSSM Associates located in Semarang, Indonesia, is a prime example.

The client’s brief was for a house that is visually stunning and unique, structurally challenging and highly sustainable.

Additionally, the internal spaces had to be distributed to allow for both the professional and social parts of the client’s life to co-exist

harmoniously and without impediment.

Therefore, the optimum goal was for the design team to incorporate the structural elements within the form’s geometric attributes; allowing the structure to serve the form while simultaneously allowing for the form to serve the structure.

In essence, the outer space is a combination of natural elements and built volumes that blend harmoniously. This emphasises the impression that the sleek volume on the upper level rests on a series of sharp and playful surfaces on the ground. Internally, despite the white colour scheme and imposing geometric character throughout, marble floors and rhythmic surrounding walls reflect a feeling of hospitality and charm that is exclusive to the home’s occupants.

Therefore, how to extract the optimal design and how to cohere the greatest beauty are the missions of its talented designers.

‘Sharing Feast’ is an award-winning interior design by CIID focusing on reception, friendship and wine tasting for employees of a leading enterprise. It is not a restaurant, nor open to the general public but rather serves as a relaxing and healing space for staff. At the same time the design concept demonstrates the exclusive brand value and even cohesion of the enterprise. Thus, the design team came up with four pillars: scene, quality, style and uniqueness.

Since this is a place for senior management and executives to relax and hold banquets, materials such as leather, antique mirrors, stainless steel and marble were adopted. These bring out a sense of luxury inspired by the image of an ancient oriental palace banquet. Another important element of this project is the regular hexagons containing both inscribed and circumscribed circles and seamlessly connected together. By connecting them in a repeated fashion, a seamless surface can be formed. These graphic characteristics perfectly match the corporate spirit of the client, demonstrating congruity when dealing with external affairs and unity when consolidating corporate internal strength.

Natural lighting radiates through the slatted windows and bathes the rooms in a warm glow creating a feeling of serenity and escape.

Baoding Xinhua Bookstore is the perfect place to forget your daily worries and not only interact with the great scholars of the past but connect with others, as if reading each other like a book.

The firm was commissioned to design the award-winning Amber Skye residential highrise development located close to the sea on Singapore’s east coast, just 15 minutes’ drive from the city centre. Six apartments per floor are located in each tower and include villa units located on the ground through to three penthouses each with their own sky terrace and large swimming pools.

Three stunning towers greet you with their wave shaped balconies and shimmering glass windows forming an impressive façade,

which is in keeping with the coastal location.

Lush, landscaped gardens and beautiful water features surround the property as you walk through to the relaxing pool area. Here a sculptural tree creates an eye-catching object, with creepers growing over the structure, which will in time create the look of a real tree. This will offer more greenery as well as becoming a perfect shaded area for residents to enjoy barbecues. A rooftop sky terrace provides a community area for residents to enjoy open dining and socialising, whilst enjoying the spectacular seaside views.

Amber Skye provides a stimulating and elegant addition to its urban setting as well as celebrating the quality of living for both the community and individuals alike.

The firm was commissioned to design two award-winning projects: Jim Olson House ‘House of Reflection’ Sales Gallery is located in a picturesque mountain area overlooking Taipei city. The idea was to create a sales area with an art museum atmosphere concept.

The minimal approach was taken with pure white walls, light wood flooring and dark modern furniture, which emphasizes the space within and the beautiful landscape views outside. A subtle ‘Sky’ artwork perfectly integrated to the living space acts as an extension to the natural view. A transparent ‘wind flow’ chandelier further expresses the

nature element and enhances the spatial volume of the architecture.

For Arclinea Showroom (Hong Kong) the client was looking to create a mysterious and secret glamour theme for their kitchen showroom over three specific areas. A stunning dark grey wall recreating the look of lizard scales faces the shop front and exudes a feeling of dark, secrets and glamour. A wall covered with green moss and a fireplace set underneath tones down the mood and creates a feeling of harmony, whilst white kitchen cabinets offset the dark background perfectly.

Enter the VIP dining room which demonstrates the brand’s high-end products, and discover a stunning marble wall, lit with subtle lighting and a rose gold kitchen island sets the mood for grand dining.

Clients benefit from the breadth of its pooled knowledge and creative expertise across design studios in Asia, Europe and the Middle East.

The British Club Bangkok is an oasis of calm and serenity for the English-speaking community in the centre of Thailand’s buzzing capital city. Chapman Taylor’s winning design is inspired by the Union flag with its unique geometry ‘draped’ over the club building. A series of bold, prefabricated architectural elements have been proposed for application to the façade, which prove both practical and aesthetically interesting. The British Club has been reinvented to bring it into the 21st century and maximise its potential to become

a leading leisure and hospitality club within South-East Asia.

Riedel Wine Bar & Cellar is the first wine bar and restaurant by the world-renowned Riedel glassware company. Set in one of Bangkok’s luxury malls, Gaysorn Village, Chapman Taylor’s brief was to create a destination whilst finding the balance of functionality, refinement and high quality design. The design team’s approach was to create pockets of private, luxuriously furnished corners that allow guests to immerse themselves in the wine tasting experience.

This concept also references the heritage of the Riedel brand and the industrial processes involved in glass making and how this is complemented by the similarly intricate wine making process.

Reaching a lofty height of 78 storeys across a two-acre site, it is a freehold mixeduse project that is set to be the second tallest building in Malaysia upon its target completion in 2021. The build and height of the iconic development results in a

The key Skywheel structure will be built from the 52nd floor upwards and in between the top-most Design Suites and hotel blocks. Introducing a variety of geometric patterns adorning its façade, the building’s two most obvious designs are that of a repeating hexagon shape as well as a triangular, diamondlike motif. These are both closely linked to the local Malay culture and, rather than detract from the building’s contemporary design, they allude to the exclusivity and lavishness of the iconic building.

The villa follows his design approach reconnecting architecture with nature, making optimum use of space, and reinventing living environments with natural materials, lighting and landscape. Mr. Abraham is the creator of some of India’s most wellknown homes, including Villa in the Sky, the seaside penthouse in Mumbai he designed for his brother, Bollywood actor John Abraham.

The award-winning Villa in the Palms, Mr. Abraham’s most unique project to date, was developed by Marisha Dutt and Steven Gutkin.

A single family, four-bedroom house accessed by a private road, it stands on a 1,300m² plot in the coastal state of Goa, India. The plot was dotted with 20 towering coconut trees

with a view across a large field and a seasonal stream. These trees have dictated the concept and footprint of the villa, which has been meticulously designed between them.

The villa’s volumes have been oriented along the trees to maximise views of the field, and bridges and decks meandering through the trees have been incorporated to connect them. Roofs were pitched at different angles representative of houses in the surrounding villages to accentuate the staccato nature and fragmented aesthetic of the building. Boundaries between the inside and outside are blurred and vast open spaces connect each living space while at the same time maintain privacy. Each bedroom on the ground floor feels like a separate home and the front view of the villa has been designed to give an entirely different sensation from that at the back.

Bagmane Goldstone is a contemporary corporate office building which has been designed as an urban intervention to instil a sense of calm in its rather chaotic site. By abutting a major frontage to Bangalore’s Outer Ring Road and the Mahdevpura Lake, the site offered an opportunity to create a haven of tranquillity in direct contrast to the hyper loud and disparate urban context.

One of the main goals of the architectural design was to create an identity for the

project and a landmark for the city. By carefully designing the form as two towers sculpted into each other with individual cores, the junction of the building provides the project’s entry statement. The drop off point is elevated above the street, creating a distinct sense of arrival. It also circles an attractive water pavilion which provides an anchor display area for potential tenants.

Two centralised cores allow for a multi tenanted solution for the large floor plate.

This has been designed to ensure maximum natural daylight penetration, proximity to fire escapes and restrooms from all parts of the office floor. The ground and first floor also have the potential of offering lake facing food and beverage opportunities.

In traditional Japanese residential spaces, there is a large area called the ‘Doma’. This is where cooking, family gatherings, playing and socialising with neighbours takes place. With the evolution of modern homes, the Doma has disappeared and been replaced by what is known as the foyer or hall. Although the pattern of residential living space is gradually becoming Westernised, the traditional way of life still revolves around the mother being the centre of the family.

Focusing on the essence of life being the interaction of people and their homes, JDID gave up the hall to reinstate the concept of the Doma for Liang’s Apartment. Breaking the traditional limitations of space, it reconstructs the framework and rearranges the vital elements of reception, gathering, cooking and playing in one consecutive stroke, allowing an uninterrupted flow of space.

A nine-strip wooden divider at the apartment’s entrance can be opened to provide transparency throughout the space or closed to give privacy when required. At the end of the corridor, a throne-like seat has been positioned so that the father may sit here and watch his young daughter playing the piano on a raised platform.

   management team with more than 10 years of design experience, K2design provides a professional and comprehensive consulting service in the field of interior, graphic, signage and corporate identity design.

Amatio Chill Park is a mid-size community mall in the Chonburi province of Thailand. It is a leisure and lifestyle destination for the local residents, combining shopping, dining, fitness and 10-court badminton centre, ballroom, conference areas and karaoke room. K2design was responsible for the reception and lobby.

The design includes long straight lines inspired by the string bed of a badminton racket, with unfolding slanted elements echoing the feathers of a shuttlecock. With a six-metre high ceiling, the room allowed

tall vertical features and a split between the lower reception desk and upper toilets and changing rooms. Visitors are greeted by a long, low reception desk decorated and positioned to immediately capture attention. From the main reception counter and seating area, tall floor-to-ceiling windows look out to a terrace and the soccer field below. The large staircase between the two levels resembles stadium seating and also looks onto the field.

A combination of wooden textures and bright yellow colouration create a feeling of energy, inspiring everyone who comes through the door. Custom wayfinding and signage generate interest and continue the sporting themes; locker number graphics resemble scoreboards.

The whole lobby area immediately energises visitors, preparing them for their activities.

- BE W (the BE stands for Built Environment) provides aesthetic and practical architectural and interior design services for a variety of sectors, including residential, commercial and hospitality.

Their project Baan Khon Kaen is a sixbedroom family home in Khon Kaen, one of four major cities in northeast Thailand. Based on the site of a former house, this was the ideal opportunity to enlarge and adapt the family’s accommodation through ingenious architecture that reuses some of the wood from the previous construction.

The clients, a family crossing three generations, requested welcoming communal gathering areas to promote unity. The family room is a primary area, combining living,

dining and the pantry with high ceilings and an outdoor terrace with Koi pond. Other areas such as the large study room, exercise room and patio are integrated into the best locations to encourage togetherness.

Family members also requested their own private bedrooms which are spread out around the property to ensure there are no interruptions. The home is split into two wings, joined by an airy raised passageway, allowing natural ventilation and the potential for easy future expansion. The pond and pool also aid in heat control. Barriers of greenery provide privacy for the house, while visitors are greeted by a front courtyard with a pool and pavilion.

The family were delighted with their new sanctuary; a home that draws them to use and appreciate every individual space and aspect.

   years of experience and hundreds of projects across Thailand, including two hotels and a residential project in Kensington, London, Sansiri is widely regarded as Thailand’s leading developer of quality houses, townhouses and condominiums. Sansiri is also the country’s only fully integrated property developer, providing comprehensive services that go far beyond those of traditional developers.

98 Wireless is Sansiri’s latest flagship condominium. Situated on a prestigious tree-lined boulevard in the heart of Bangkok, Lumpini Park and the shopping district of Ploenchit are both adjacent to the street with transport access within walking distance.

The building is designed by a world-class team including international architectural team DWP, Bangkok-based landscape studio T.R.O.P. and New York based Anne Carson

Interiors. Styling is exclusively by Ralph Lauren Home.

This 25-storey high-rise of only 77 units is imagined in a timeless classic style with quality and craftsmanship that are second to none.

World-class plaster mouldings are paired with brass and wrought iron balustrades. Italian marbles and Portuguese limestones cover over 28,000 square metres of the property.

Mahogany crotch doors and solid oak flooring create natural luxury, while appliances from Siematic, Sub-Zero and Gaggenau maintain technological superiority.

Common areas are decorated with carefully selected antiques and art pieces, including specially commissioned sculptures and paintings. Such levels of style have not impacted function; this is one of the first residential buildings in Bangkok to receive the prestigious LEED environmental certification.
