Publisher’s Note

編者的話

We are honoured to feature Leigh & Orange as this issue’s lead feature, as the Hong Kong practice passes the milestone of 140 years of continuous service.

When meeting the directors of a company with such longevity one might assume a degree of reflection upon their legacy of built projects. Not so at L & O where future planning takes centre stage for the generation currently at the helm and armed with a historical set of values firmly focused on enhancing the growth of community. History may provide important perspective, but the future demands of us, especially in this time of great change, a dedicated and committed focus; we congratulate Leigh & Orange, generations past and present, for their sustained commitment to these challenges.

Elsewhere, we feature the winners of two important, yet entirely different building industry awards; Quality Building Award 2014 and the 2014 New Zealand Architecture Awards. Though featuring projects entirely different in scope, both awards demonstrate industry’s unity in building wisely to enhance our living environments. Such commitment is also evident in Singapore, as Benoy showcase their mixed-use and retail project, Westgate - earning high praise for its extensive vertical greening and overall contribution to sustainable building. 我們很榮幸在今期《PRC建設》以利安顧問有限公司作為主題故事，這家紮根香港 的建築事務所正慶祝踏進140周年的里程碑。和這間歷史悠久的建築事務所的董事 們會面時，大家或認為應會趁機懷緬一下他們建築項目的豐功偉績；但恰恰相反的 是，當前的掌舵人讓未來規劃佔據中心位置，並以促進社區發展的世代承傳價值觀 輔之。歷史能提供重要觀點，尤其於這翻天覆地的年代，但未來更需我們擁有專注 和堅定焦點。《PRC建設》謹此衷心祝賀利安，並感謝無論是前人或現今之菁英， 對克服時代挑戰的不變承諾。 另外，我們今期亦會介紹兩個重量級但完全不同的建築業界大獎 － 2014年優質建 築大獎及2014年新西蘭建築大獎。雖然得獎項目分屬完全不同領域，但兩個獎項均 表現出建造以優化生活環境的共識為依據。這種概念在新加坡同樣得到體現，由貝 諾設計的大型綜合用途及零售項目「西城」- 以其廣泛的垂直綠化，及對可持續建築 的整體貢獻贏得高度讚揚。

Happy Valley museum opens in restored Art Deco gem F11 Photographic Museum (F11) in Happy Valley will mark its official opening with a ‘Best in Show’ exhibition by legendary American photographer, Elliott Erwitt, on 18 September.

Located at No.11 Yuk Sau Street, F11 occupies a three-storey Art Deco building lovingly restored to reveal its original grandeur.While retaining many of the building’s 80-year old architectural features, the restoration artfully blends elements of contemporary design.

The area was formerly the Wong Nei Chung Village, which came into existence in the 17th century but was almost entirely destroyed by a major flood in 1923. Subsequently, the British government resumed the lands for redevelopment and the district was developed into a middle-class residential area where new streets were built; among them was Yuk Sau Street. Nos. 1-11 Yuk Sau Street was originally built as a row of residential blocks, designed by the Architect, J.S. Gibson, and built in 1934-35.

Curator and museum owner, Douglas So, said: “Our vision for F11 Photographic Museum is to generate interest in photography and an appreciation for the art form. We do this through our curated collection of rare cameras, books and prints. In choosing to house the museum in a Grade III historic building, we also hope to encourage more private conservation and revitalisation of Hong Kong’s heritage properties.” While the ground and first floors will host exhibitions, the second floor is a private museum showcasing a vast display of Leica cameras, including the Model A Anastigmat from 1925, the first year Leitz sold cameras to the public. The upper level museum is also home to over 1,000 titles from the Magnum Book collection, including many rare and first signed editions and maquettes, which are available for research.

Atkins designs the iconic Window of Guangzhou An unusual Atkins-designed office development will become the new icon of Guangzhou, capital city of Guangdong Province in China and third largest in mainland China by gross domestic product. Atkins was appointed by China Communications Construction Company (CCCC) to provide architecture services from concept through to extended preliminary design stage for the new Window of Guangzhou development. This is Atkins’ first architecture project for the client, one of China’s most powerful state-owned enterprises. Atkins has established a strong relationship with CCCC, which led to the signing of a memorandum of understanding for a global strategic cooperation in April 2014. The development, due to be completed in 2018, consists of three stand-alone buildings which will house high-end office space. Two of the buildings resemble ‘floating’ windows and the other tower stands at 208 metres tall. From a distance, the development reads as ‘001’ which symbolises Guangzhou as the first Chinese city open for international trading as a port for the ancient Silk Road several dynasties ago and again revitalized in the late 1970s.

CCCC project director, Shu Guang, said: “Atkins’ design concept demonstrates the importance of Guangzhou as a gateway to China for the world. The window-shaped buildings promote the city’s image as an important location for China’s import and export business.” Atkins senior design director, KY Cheung, said: “Our design provides a dramatic visual impact, ensuring that the breathtaking view of the Zhujiang River is maximised for the occupants and the community behind the project as well. We incorporated green architecture design principles such as solar shading and air flow through the buildings to provide shelter from sun and rain typical in this hot and humid part of southern China.”

ZHA designs for the American University of Beirut

Capturing Kyoto

The Issam Fares Institute for Public Policy and International Affairs (IFI) building

by Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA) at the American University of Beirut (AUB) continues the on-going implementation of the 2002 AUB Campus Master Plan by Sasaki Associates (in collaboration with Machado and Silvetti, MGT of America, and Dar Al-Handasa, Shair and Partners) to advance the university’s academic mission in the 21st Century with facilities of the highest international standards. The IFI was established as a neutral, dynamic, civil, and open space where people representing all viewpoints in society can gather and discuss significant issues, anchored in a long-standing commitment to mutual understanding and high quality research. The institute aims to harness, develop and initiate research of the Arab world to enhance and broaden debate on public policy and international relations. It currently works on several programs addressing the region’s issues including the refugee crisis, climate change, food security, and water scarcity, youth, social justice and development, urbanism, and the UN in the Arab world.

Ritz-Carlton Kyoto sits on the banks of the Kamogawa River in Nakagyo-ku, enjoying expansive views of the famous Higashiyama mountain range. The building is a contemporary interpretation of Meiji period (1868-1912) architecture, with interiors inspired by the dark, mysterious atmosphere of machiya—traditional Kyotian wooden townhouses. When designing the first superior-luxury hotel in Japan’s former ancient capital, Remedios Studio was assigned the task of encapsulating 1,000 years of aesthetic tradition. Kyoto was the ancient, imperial capital of Japan and is often dubbed ‘the Florence of Japan’, due to its rich cultural heritage. Home to 17 Unesco World Heritage sites, Kyoto is deeply rooted in its ancient culture and Kyotians are wary of foreigners attempting to interpret their history.

Remedios Studio Managing Director and Chief Designer, Peter Remedios, said: “What most people think they know about Japanese culture is actually Tokyo culture and specifically the Edo period from the early 17th to late 19th centuries. Kyoto culture is very different and spans 1,000 years from the late 8th century through the Heian period and periods of Medieval Japan, and is strongly influenced by China and Buddhism. The people of Kyoto had to feel satisfied that the hotel had correctly and appropriately interpreted their cultural heritage, and the resort had to capture the Ritz-Carlton DNA and meet the high expectations of guests, delivering the hallmarks of the Ritz-Carlton brand in terms of comfort, service, quality of materials and surprising guests with the unexpected.” More information at: www.remediosstudio.com.

TFP Farrells designs for new landmark in Jinan Located in Jinan, China, the TFP designed, Evergrande Jinan IFC Landmark Tower and Masterplan project, forms part of the urban plan for Jinan West Station district. The 108,600m2 master plan comprises the 518m landmark tower, serviced apartment towers, A-grade SOHO offices, retail mall and support facilities for the serviced apartment, with a total GFA of 760,200m². It will be a striking landmark which seamlessly integrates into the local landscape. The architectural built form and positioning of the towers in the master plan reflects a coherent urban design and forms a balanced master plan without having to create an overly rigid symmetrical building mass.

The architectural form of the serviced apartment and office towers are shaped to taper and flare out at the base of the buildings; tying in with the general geometry of the landmark tower. The massing and disposition of buildings strengthens to embrace and integrate with the expansive greenery of the Central Parkland. TFP Farrells director, Stefan Krummeck, said: “The Company is proud to design such an iconic landmark in Jinan.”

10 DESIGN creates tree canopy living in Dubai After the commercial success of Seventh Heaven at Al Barari (the 2nd phase of the development), 10 DESIGN has been commissioned to lead the subsequent phase; Ashjar.

The word, Ashjar, means ‘trees’ in Arabic. Al Barari’s expectation is for the development to cultivate ‘a unique vision of high-end living in harmony with the natural environment’ providing lush green environs to its residents. 10 DESIGN Design Partner, Gordon Affleck, said: “The idea of tree living has given us the inspiration to envisage apartments with three different characters of usual amenity: ‘at the forest floor’, ‘within the tree canopy’, and ‘above the forest canopy’.With over 80% of the site dedicated to landscape, these apartments will merge seamlessly into their surroundings from day one.”

Ashjar is located 10 minutes from the Burj Khalifa. The development comprises 300 high end 1,2 and 3-bedroom apartments set within 21 individual low rise buildings each carefully woven into a lush forest landscape. Small clusters of these low rise buildings create intimate and private communities at one with nature. Dense planting, meandering streams, shared amenity and secluded gardens connect communities and allow controlled access to the wider master plan and amenities.

Within the Ashjar site three primary block typologies are proposed creating a rich and diverse community.

First Female President for RICS Louise Brooke-Smith has been elected President of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), and thus becomes the first female President in the Institution’s 146 year history. During her year-long presidency which runs until 30 June, 2015, Ms Brooke-Smith will focus on three core areas: diversity, Africa and her professional specialisms; planning and land economics.

RICS President, Louise Brooke-Smith, commenting on being the first female president in the Institution’s history, said: “I have been elected on my individual merits and not because of my gender.

We are a proud industry, but have lagged behind others in terms of making the most of a diverse workforce. That’s why I’m delighted that RICS ‘Surveying the Future’ campaign will be a pillar of my presidential term and will help drive change across industry to ensure we attract and retain the very best talent.”

QBE Hong Kong launches construction insurance product Construction companies in Hong Kong seeking to protect their mobile plant and equipment have for the first time access to a single insurance package offering bespoke protection to meet their specific needs, following the launch of an innovative insurance solution by QBE Hongkong & Shanghai Insurance (QBE-HKSI). By providing the insured with more convenience, greater coverage and better leverage of the premium paid, QBEHKSI’s novel insurance package Industrial Special Plant (‘ISP’) reflects QBE Asia Pacific’s strategy to introduce solutions that better serve customer needs. ISP is a policy which can replace up to five standalone policies for policyholders, reducing both intermediaries’ and clients' administrative costs.

QBE-HKSI general manager, Lobo Law, said:“ISP isn’t comparable to the existing insurance options in Hong Kong. It provides construction companies with a comprehensive solution at one go, reducing their administrative work from application to claims processes. It also offers a means to leverage the premium spend and negotiate better terms. ISP clearly makes better financial sense. It allows the policyholder to insure the machine for its current market value and, in the event of the machine being destroyed, ISP pays the current market value. QBE is the only insurer in the market that allows the ‘market value’ as sum insured in the standard policy.”

The booth floor, walls and ceiling structure were all clad with Schotten & Hansen’s trademark textured wood surfaces and finishes.

Debuting at ICFF and at the centre of the impressive booth was the Tribeca table and chair. Designed by Francisco to have strong, sculptural lines and clearly contemporary expression, the table and chair are finished with Schotten & Hansen’s sophisticated wood surface. Cortina said: “This was a special opportunity to use Schotten & Hansen’s proven oiled and waxed surfaces as a basis for design. Combined with pure Aniline leather and polished brass, the Tribeca table & chair are designed, engineered and crafted to withstand the passing of time. The mark of true quality and sustainability.”

Heritage exhibition for Wheelock Properties Marc & Chantal developed the concepts, carried out the research and produced the artwork for a month-long exhibition that was part of a broader brand and communication exercise developed for a residential project by Wheelock Properties on the Peak. It was conceptualised, curated and designed as a museum-grade display to educate the public on some of the hidden stories that took place at one of the most significant locations in Hong Kong. The practice led research into Hong Kong’s unique heritage and natural wonders and came up with a presentation that made the content engaging for mainstream audiences.The brief was to engage a wide audience – from the general public to heritage enthusiasts and even academics, to create an accurate portrait, while keeping it entertaining and memorable for curious visitors. The exhibition design had to offer an innovative perspective on this important part of Hong Kong.

Marc & Chantal assembled rich iconography, paired with little known facts and anecdotes, to portray the daily lives and occupations of the early “Peakites” – as residents of the Peak were known. The team commissioned an architectural model of Mountain Lodge, the former summer residence of the Governor, to show the architecture of the earlier era and sourced many historical artefacts to illustrate daily life on the Peak.

Broadway Malyan unveils design for statement towers in central Jakarta Broadway Malyan has unveiled designs for a major mixed-use tower development in central Jakarta, Indonesia. ‘7Point8’ will feature two towers with the tallest standing at 298 metres against Jakarta’s central business district skyline, providing a bold statement on the main artery running through the city. Broadway Malyan was appointed by a joint venture between land owners and leading Jakarta developers including Karya Cipta Group to deliver the concept and schematic design. The towers are positioned at right angles to each other to match the client’s aspiration that the building should achieve an east-west perspective. 7Point8 will combine office, retail, commercial, residential and public space within an integrated building style and contribute to the rejuvenation of Jakarta’s CBD, with the hub set to benefit from direct connections to the new Setiabudi Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station. The design is inspired by the 'alun-alun' or town squares of Javanse cities, where social, economic and leisure activities take place and buildings feature a square or rectangular walled exterior and a courtyard open to the sky – resulting in the centralisation of the proposed public space within the middle of the site and creation of a significant internal courtyard garden.

‘Cinema Future Wild’ arrives in Xinjiang Province Alexander Wong Architects (China) recently completed the first futuristic themed cinema, called Cinema Future Wild, for Sunway Movie Park in Urumqi, Xinjiang, China.The culture of Urumqi is colourful and filled with the natural charms of the wild, which became the inspiration for the practice when designing the first sci-fi and futuristic Cinema City at Century Ginwa Plaza, filled with raw and sensual elements of the avant-garde – a combination of sci-fi elements for the first flagship of the Sunway Movie Park cinema chain in Urumqi. Chief Designer, Alexander Wong, said: “Culture and customs in Xinjiang are not only colourful, but are incredibly wild! Mustangs riding high on highland pastures, forests filled with majestic deer, snow-capped mountains with desert eagles hunting wild rabbits; these were some of the powerful images that inspired the design team in this part of China. Alexander Wong Architects put full use of these original and sensual elements whilst combining science fiction to create a movie theatre of the sort never before seen in Urumqi.” Wong hopes that this bold and exciting project will demonstrate that hope still prevails in this far corner of China, where the beauty of its wild past is still so much in evidence today.

Malaysia Loves Architecture ARCHIDEX successfully staged its 15th instalment in June as one of the region’s premier events for the building industry and in particular, architecture and interior design. However, more than any other event of a similar nature in the region, the enthusiastic support shown towards ARCHIDEX by Malaysia’s own population, is unprecedented.

This year’s instalment of the highly successful and much anticipated annual gathering of professionals from the architectural sector and building industry drew a record turnout of over 33,200 trade and public visitors, with 550 companies from 17 countries taking up 1,250 exhibition booths in 9 halls of the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre from 25 – 29 June.

Hailed as Malaysia’s largest exhibition and networking event for the industry, ARCHIDEX has earned itself a pivotal position as a leading gathering among South East Asia’s fraternity of architects, urban planners, interior designers, academics, students and various other building sector professionals.The collective enthusiasm in evidence during this trade event is infectious.

A host of international architects also gathered in the convention centre during an eventful week for the annual International Architectural Design Conference (DATUM: KL) featuring a roster of inspiring speakers, as well as the 16th Asian Congress of Architects (ACA16), which is a major bi-annual architecture conference, and the 35th General Meeting of the Architects Regional Council of Asia (ARCASIA). Malaysia won the bid to host the ACA16 for the third time, having also played host in 1986 and 2000.

Matching the support of the public and participation of industry, this annual celebration of the built environment also receives the support of the Malaysian Ministry of Tourism and the Malaysian Convention and Exhibition Bureau (MyCEB) and ARCHIDEX is endorsed by the Malaysian Ministry of Works and the Malaysian External Trade Development Corporation.

Malaysian Minister of Public Works, Datuk Haji Fadillah Haji Yusof, said: “The occasion marks yet another successful staging of a highly anticipated annual exhibition. Not only has ARCHIDEX become an influential event in the building

and design industry within Malaysia, it has evolved into one of the region’s primary platforms to showcase to the strengths of what the industry has to offer.”

Malaysian Institute of Architects (Pertubuhan Akitek Malaysia/PAM), President, Ar Chan Seong Aun, said: “As architects, we are on a constant quest to improve the quality of life through the built environment and we seek ever better ways to design and build. Events such as ARCHIDEX play a role in providing a powerful platform for architects to converge in sharing ideas and shaping our built future together.”

This year’s event was marked by a strong presence from foreign exhibitors that included Austria, Australia, China, Estonia, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey and United Arab Emirates. Five country pavilions included Austria, Germany, Singapore, Korea and China.

Australian Institute of Architects, Immediate Past President, Paul Berkemeie, said: “I’ve been attending ARCHIDEX for years and it’s great seeing the tremendous growth and the impressive number of participants. DATUM: KL has indeed grown into a major event on the architectural scene now.”

For the first time in 2014,ARCHIDEX was jointly held with the ECO-B exhibition, which explores a growing global interest in environmentally responsible buildings.

Although somewhat smaller than its well established architectural-based exhibition, the global interest in the sustainable use of our dwindling resources is sure to see ECO-B growing in the years ahead.

ARCHIDEX will next be held from 12 – 15 August, 2015, at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre under the theme ‘Advancing Architecture In Asia’.

24 CASE STUDY

Office Refurbishment The Prospex, Singapore In recent years Singapore’s property investment market has experienced tremendous growth, particularly in the residential sector, prompting the government to implement macro prudential policies to restrain the escalating prices. The introduction of Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty, tiered Seller’s Stamp Duty and lower borrowing limits has caused many investors to abandon the residential sector in favour of commercial properties. On the back of a steadily recovering rental market, investor interest in office properties is gaining traction, as is interest from prospective owner-occupiers as small and mid-sized companies are increasingly shifting their focus from simply leasing to acquiring good quality office space that also has the potential for capital appreciation.

AFTER

Sensing strong demand for good quality strata-titled commercial units, a real estate investment fund managed by Pamfleet bought a property formerly known as Bright Chambers in 2013 through a Collective Sale process. The building is situated in the heart of Bugis, on a prominent corner site at the junction of Middle Road and Victoria Street.

The original building was built in 1974 and has a total gross floor area of 3,884 square metres over 9-storeys, with each floor having a ceiling height of 3.3 metres (slab-to-slab).

During renovation, the property will be sub-divided into four strata-titled units per floor, targeting small and mid-sized occupiers such as local trading companies and professional services firms.

The Renovation Pamfleet is now project-managing an extensive renovation which includes replacing and extending the façade with high performance glass cladding, installing all new building M&E systems, introducing a more prominent street level entrance to give a better sense of arrival and creating a new identity for the building. With the triple road frontages, the first two levels have been converted to retail use to capitalize on its location in the energetic heart of Bugis. The office floors are also being reconfigured into highly efficient floor plates to offer different sizes of office strata units. The planning and design for the new repositioning commenced in July 2013 and a strong team of local consultants was appointed for the project including a plus i as the Architect, WebStructure as the Structural Engineer, DSCO as the Building Services Engineer, WT Partnership as the Quantity Surveyor, WebEarth as the Environmental Consultant and ISG as the Main Contractor. The team faced some unique challenges, especially on the statutory procedures and different government departments’ requirements. The development control process in Singapore allows pre-consultation with the authorities and certain waiver processes to allow for older buildings that cannot always be brought completely up to code. This gives developers a chance to explore wider innovative design solutions, although project managers do need to allow sufficient time for statutory procedures which, in Pamfleet’s experience, take longer than in Hong Kong.

BEFORE

Construction commenced in April 2014 and the renovation is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2015. The building will be Green Mark Certified in accordance with the Building Control (Environmental Sustainability) Regulations.

Strategies Bugis has been targeted by the Urban Redevelopment Authority to be a vibrant mixed-use cluster to compliment Marina Bay and Raffles Place. It is also earmarked as a strategic transit hub for roadways and the MRT. As such the locality is undergoing rapid development, with large scale projects such as DUO Tower and South Beach fast establishing Bugis as an attractive business location. In conjunction with the physical renovations, the fund’s investment strategy involves repositioning and rebranding the building as The Prospex - a modern, high quality grade A feel commercial building to meet demand from small to mid-sized companies looking for the chance to own an office that puts design and quality of environment first.

With high quality materials and attention to detail, Pamfleet will create an attractive product in an area popular with occupiers and investors.

Comparable office rental rates in the surrounding area are around S$7-8 per square foot, whereas before the renovation the building’s average rental was S$3 per square foot. According to some forecasts, prices of resale strata office market in the CBD are set to rise another 10 - 15% this year on the back of a limited supply of strata offices and healthy demand from end users looking to buy rather than rent. The market has also seen keen interest from local and foreign buyers who are now located in the city fringe.

Pamfleet has appointed CBRE as the exclusive sales and marketing agent for the strata office units of The Prospex. According to Sammi Lim, Associate Director of Investment Properties at CBRE, “Against a backdrop of higher office rentals in the next two to three years, these buyers are coming in now, in anticipation of higher yield returns and the increase in capital values in the mid to long term. Prices of resale Grade A strata offices have also held strong, averaging S$3,000 - S$3,500 per square foot. For example, The Adelphi, which traded in the range of S$2,200 per square foot two years back, achieved a new high of S$2,700 per square foot recently.“

專 案 分 析 25

寫字樓翻新 新加坡 The Prospex 近年新加坡的房地產投資市場尤其是住宅物業有大幅增長，促使當地政府實施宏觀審慎 的政策來歇止不斷上升的物業價格，並推出額外印花稅及降低貸款上限，讓投資者從住 宅市場轉投到商用物業市場。自寫字樓租賃市場穩步回升後，投資者的興趣也逐漸轉移 到寫字樓物業，當中也包括有意購買物業作自用的業主，相當數量的中小型公司也購入 具增值潛力的優質商業單位，而不再單只考慮租用辦公室。 鵬里資產管理深信優質中小型商業辦公室需求強勁，其管理的房地產投資基金透過收購 各個業權，於2013年成功購入前身為光明大廈之商業物業。大廈坐落武吉士(Bugis)的心 臟地帶，位於 Middle Road 及Victoria Street 交界的核心地點。大廈建於1974年，樓高 9層及總樓面面積達3,884平方米，各層樓底高達3.3米(層高)，物業於翻新後將提供每層 四個寫字樓單位，目標租戶為本地貿易和專業服務公司等中小型用家。

翻修 鵬里現時正為大廈進行大規模翻修，包括將舊有外牆更換為高效益的玻璃幕牆並且擴 闊、安裝全新的機電系統、擴闊寫字樓地面入口令，為大廈建立全新型像。由於大廈覆 蓋三條核心街道，首兩層將改作為零售用途，以充分利用其位於人流暢旺的武吉士心臟 位置之優勢。辦公樓層佈局亦會重新設計，提高實用率並提供不同面積單位。重新定位 的大廈規劃及設計始於2013年7月，由當地顧問組成陣容強大的團隊，包括了 a plus i 擔任建築師、WebStructure 擔任結構工程師、DSCO 為機電設備工程師、WT Partnership 擔任工料測量師、WebEarth 為環保顧問和 ISG 作為主承包商。期間團隊面對不少 挑戰，尤其需符合建築物法規, 申請改造程序和不同政府部門的各項要求。新加坡政府容 許建築商顧問與相關部門作預先諮詢及申請豁免，並瞭解若干較舊建築物或未能達到及 符合最新建築物條例的要求，因而會考慮作相關調整，讓建築商有機會探索更多元的創 意設計方案。故此項目經理需預留充足時間進行設計及與不同政府部門溝通，根據鵬里 的經驗，需要比香港預留較多時間。 大廈於2014年4月開始施工，翻修預期於2015年第一季完成，並將按建築物管制(環境持 續性)條例 (Building Control (Environmental Sustainability) Regulations) 獲得綠色標章 計劃確證(Green Mark Certified)。

策略 當地市區重建局已規劃武吉士為以濱海灣與金融街所組成的一個蓬勃的多用途 地帶的重要部份，亦被預留為道路和地鐵的策略性交通樞紐，因此該區正作高 速發展，包括 DUO Tower 及 South Beach 等大型項目，將武吉士建成具吸 引力的的商業地段。除具體翻修外，鵬里基金的投資策略也包括將大廈重新定 位及重塑為「The Prospex」－ 一橦現代化、高質素及設有甲級設備的商業大 樓，迎合中小企業注重設計及環境質素辦公室的投資需要。鵬里在選材及細節 上均以一絲不苟的精神，重新建造一幢充滿魅力的建築物。區內同類型寫字樓 的租金達每平方尺7至8新加坡元，這大廈翻修前的租金則只有每平方尺3新加坡 元，租金提升空間甚為可觀。根據預測，新加坡中央商業區的中小型辦公室供 應相對有限，用家寧願放棄租用而購置寫字樓以作投資，預計全年寫字樓價格 將會上升10到15%；其他位於市區週邊的本地用家, 甚至外地買家也熱衷於市場 投資。 鵬里已委任世邦魏理仕為 The Prospex 寫字樓之獨家市場推廣及銷售代理。世 邦魏理仕投資物業部副總監 Sammi Lim 表示：「有鑑未來兩至三年寫字樓的 租金會持續上升，更多買家將會出現，預期可於中長期獲得可觀的收益回報和 資產增值。轉售甲級分層產權寫字樓的價位保持強勁，平均每平方尺 3,000至 3,500新加坡元。例如 The Adelphi 於兩年前成交價處於每平方尺 2,200新加坡 元的範圍內，近來便錄得每平方尺 2,700 新加坡元的新高記錄。」
