Luxury residences are all about creating unique spaces and lighted, spacious layouts with bespoke elements that afford the highest levels of privacy. And such residences are in high demand. Potential buyers want specifications and the quality of fittings and materials in their residence to be tailored exactly to their own personal requirements, and in a residential tower that offers nothing but the finest amenities. These two taken together, the luxe apartment and residential high-rise, must add up to create the ultimate residential experience.
And so, not only are angled, floor-to-ceiling windows characteristic of luxury living, the residential towers themselves are also predominantly glass enclosures, offering privacy at times to its residents through black glass facades. Big-ticket luxury yachts and cars, golf memberships and fun-filled holidays are rolled out to entice and please potential purchasers, and more often than not, accompany the purchase of an upscale residential apartment.
Moreover, as the luxury residences identified below illustrate, developers -at a minimum- must also differentiate their buildings with the most innovative ideas across interior and exterior designs, high-end services and desirable locations.
