Interiors are specified with ivory-toned ceramics, bespoke wood finishes, Grohe brushed-nickel fittings and Siemens appliances. The penthouses include private infrared saunas. The building’s planned facilities centre on movement, recovery and shared spaces, combining rooftop amenities with gardens, fitness areas, workspaces and rooms for wellness consultations.

The residences include one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments and penthouses. Home sizes range from 816 sq ft to 2,600 sq ft. The project contains 50 units in total, including two penthouses.

Full-height windows are included in the design concept, while landscaped balconies and shaded patio areas form part of the proposed residential setting. Private infrared saunas are specified for the penthouses.

Rooftop, fitness and recovery facilities

The rooftop is planned around a 17-metre outdoor pool, private cabanas, loungers, a cold plunge, outdoor showers and a hydration bar.
