Try to be very quiet, and listen for the sound of gears and moving water. Listen for the sound of your heart. Be thankful that you are here, swallowed with all hope, where you can rest and wait.

ABOUT EMPRESS

B R E AT H E .

Inhale light and luxury, exhale the daily stressors of the city. Empress was built to be an oasis—an unexpected retreat in the midst of adverse elements. With that in mind, the space was designed in such a way that it would restore harmony, calm the senses, and provide an atmosphere of tranquility.

Natural matte wood veneer and pale limestone in various cuts bring a sense of nature to the tower. Champagne metal accents provide an upscale, modern finish. Water fixtures and lighting elements come together to further push the zen experience. The juxtaposition of concepts and materials creates the unique identity of Empress. Sleek and modern but also serene and natural. The shape of Empress itself takes on an organic form with curvilinear sides that respond to the air flow around the tower and reduce drag. Greenery surrounds common areas at Empress. Artfully landscaped public spaces and lush pockets of solitude promise residents a chance to breathe in a variety of nature-filled environments.

Building a sense of community without losing one’s self is important to us. With that in mind, we offer a handful of amenities that can be enjoyed alone or in good company, both indoors and outdoors.

INDOOR AMENITIES We want the home to extend beyond one’s unit. With this vision, we designed Empress to nurture the soul, even indoors. For general physical fitness, residents have access to a fitness hall and dance studio. The presence of a residents’ lounge, function hall, reading room, daycare, and pamper room leave little to be desired. Small nooks around the indoor space give one enough privacy to zone in.
