It will look good when completed. Any auction units??

If world-class architect is employed but their design and concept is not followed through the interiors and finishing, it could backfire.



For instance, look at the bare gym, there is no design language at all, even the DB box is shown bare. No protective mats laid for the weights area. Goes to show how half hearted it is.

Visited the Arcoris Residences component:-

1) The commercial area looks good with some really nice retails coming up, almost everything you'd need is here. Village Grocer down the road, or Jaya Grocer at Kiara 163
2) The building face is really nice, the concrete play with the black frames gives it the high end look - but not sure about the maroon cladding
3) Landscape is OK but feel the landscape architect is being lazy. Should play with more variety (maintaining the green palette) and play with the heights of plants
4) Terrible branding, interior design and car park is really low-end looking

For the Residences section:
1) The common corridors to the units are so dimly lit. I understand it's trying to be high end, but playing with ambient lighting is important but is missing.
2) Lift design is too common, and not very clean too. Months after VP it still looks like the lifts are all contractor's lift.
3) Swimming pool area is a joke, situated at the lobby near the commercial area. Definitely not private at all. Is there another one for the Residences?
4) Gym design is an afterthought, great equipment by Life Fitness but they literally put the equipment in a room and that's it. No mirrors, no protective rubber flooring for the weights area and totally no ID for the gym.
5) The unit layouts that I saw had all weird pantry shapes and the living room is dark, there isn't a good feel to it. The corner units, however, are really bright though.

I really wanted to like the place, but at this time, am divided.

Averaging 1050psf - these are Service Residences. The one lelong is SOHO, and they are lower PSF as well

Anyone know if this unit was auctioned off successfully?
