The towers disposition is designed to capture the vast and open panoramic view to the north-western aspect, catching a glimpse of Shing Mun River and Shatin Town Centre with distant mountainous views as a backdrop. This arrangement not only created an extroversion aspect to the north-western views but also introversion aspect to the south-eastern side with the secluded landscape and outdoor pool horseshoed and embraced by these towers. South-eastern aspect is equally pleasant with an infinite view of lushness green. The open green field of the reservoir as an immediate neighbour is visually pleasing from the towers, while the rest are shades of visually relaxing palettes of greens and glimpse of Tate’s Cain, Temple Hill and Ngau Au Shan.
The project comprises 6 residential towers with all clubhouse amenities in the podium levels, basement car parking spaces and all ancillary services with a total gross floor area of 40,000 square meters. The access road with its ascending approach to the site is a ceremonial and processional route to and from the site. With the site’s unique landscape feature, the initial architectural response to the project was in the realm of nature.
The site is a wedge shaped natural slope, adjacent to the south-eastern boundary is the To Shek Service Reservoir
