A SIX STOREY TOWNHOUSE FOR A MULTI-GENERATION FAMILY EXUDES A MINIMALIST APPROACH WHICH LUXURIATES ON HUMBLE MATERIALS.
Asian Persuasion

In the heart of the historical district in Jing’an, the design of townhome interiors is a pure and minimal expression of extravagance. These family-oriented environments prioritize natural light, personal outdoor space, and the use of the highest quality finishes. The refined construction detailing and minimal use of finishes express how essentialism redefines traditional notions of luxury.

Shanghai’s Jing’an district is rooted in tradition and culture because of its namesake temple. Built over two-thousand years ago, it remains the physical and symbolic center of the community. As the city continues to densify and residences are built for a growing population, this development provides families with an alternative to the commonly seen condominium typology offering traditional notions of luxury through ornamentation and additive decorative application within single-level residential units.
