The project occupies a privileged and prime location on the corner of La Salle Road and Prince Edward Road West. Architecturally this location offers an irresistible unique opportunity to create a strong and elegant visual presence to one of the most significant arterials in Kowloon.

The architectural design is inspired and enriched by incorporating aspects of the project's location, character as well as its fundamental purpose as a residential building. The outcomes are aimed to be individual, distinctive and contemporary particularly in the area and setting itself uniquely on the market.

The architectural palette chosen for this project is vibrant and invigorating without losing its elegant presence. Its height slots between the un-invasive domestic scale of the similar residential genre on Prince Edward Road while gracefully proportioned to accommodate clubhouse facilities and services within appropriate levels as podium, this lifted the typical residential levels to mitigate possible traffic noise as well as exclusivity and privacy from the public pedestrian pavement.

The podium’s cladding pattern appeared random yet in fact highly rhythmic and systematic, each aluminum fins is positioned and spaced meticulously at certain angle and position to camouflage the banal and highly pragmatic louvres for services exhaust, ensuring maximum efficiency for services requirement while simultaneously creating a consistent architectural language.

The vibrant color metal panels extended vertically to the tower facade in a minimal nature, establishing a subtle relationship between the podium and the residential levels above. While the majority of the tower façade is curtain wall system, a minimal touch of horizontal elements making the tower an iconic, elegant and neat architectural expression.

The architectural composition of surface texture, volume and void, presence and absence, identity and individuality with space-functionality enriched itself almost like layers of methodology that informed by contemporary paintings, distinctive and individualistic.
