Apex House building redesign results in 4 new luxury apartments in Hong Kong

Designed by Woods Bagot, Apex House building redesign results in 4 new luxury apartments is located in Hong Kong. As part of the design brief, the client (a private developer) tasked Woods Bagot with reconfiguring the existing building to create four duplexes, resulting in four generously sized luxury apartments of around 4,000 sq ft, all of which were designed to showcase the views from The Peak over Tsimshatsui, Victoria harbour to the East and Lamma Island and Aberdeen to the West. The architects took their design cue from Mondrian-inspired grid-based paintings, by employing a series of layered ‘frames,’ which provide a sense of richness and scale to the design, while at the same time complementing the surrounding landscape.

Permission for such an extensive redesign from the building authority took 24 months to secure as internal staircases, a new view-lift, and full height windows all had to first be approved by the building authority before construction could begin.
