CAMDEN NORTH END
Phoenix, Arizona
Camden North End is a 441-unit luxury multi-family apartment community located nearby Desert Ridge Marketplace with shops, dining, and entertainment. The nearby Mayo Clinic Hospital influenced the design of the community. The design concept focused on health, wellness, and the importance of nature. Many of the interior finishes are natural color tones, wood, or wood-looking material. The design was intended to carry a resident through the building so that it mimicked the healing process; the first-floor palette is more calm and restorative, whereas the second-floor palette is a little brighter, bolder, and more cheerful. The units are within 3-and 4-story buildings with tuck-under garages. The 2-story clubhouse provides residents with several highclass amenities to workout, relax, and entertain. This includes a fitness center, yoga/spin studio, wifi lounges, and a coffee bar. There also is an indoor/outdoor lounge with billiards, a bar, and an entertainment kitchen. Outdoor amenities include several tranquil spaces, a rooftop deck with a fire table and lounging area, a resort-style pool and spa, an indoor/outdoor Zen garden with 2 dog parks, and a grooming area.
