Artistic icon in the making


Fancy living in one of Penang’s most artfully designed high-rise residences, complete with stunning interiors and lifestyle amenities?

If the answer is yes, then Arte-S is one worth considering. Developed by Nusmetro City Sdn Bhd on a 2.5-acre site in Bukit Gambier, it will be one of the most unique buildings around when completed in 2017.

The pair of 29 and 46-storey towers feature elliptical floor plates and waveform ledges that rotate slightly from level to level, creating a unique spiralling effect that varies when viewed from different angles.

The unique facade is meant to resemble patterns left in sand when ocean waves recede. And this artistry carries on to interior spaces.

A 200ft wide lobby with layered glass and quirky designer furniture welcomes one home. Private lifts then afford direct access to individual units.

But Arte-S’ most unique elements are its lifestyle Pods. These ovoid-shaped structures are a prominent feature on its outer facade, and house unique facilities and spaces.

Within the four-storey Lounge Pod, which starts from the 35th level, is a vast space where residents can entertain guests, relax or simply enjoy panoramic views of surroundings offered by the vast expanse of glass.

The adjacent Fantasy Pod contains a lush environment with two suspended ‘cocoons’ that are actually floating Jacuzzis. They are believed to be the first of its kind in Malaysia.

A Gym Pod atop the podium offers state-of-the-art facilities that allows one to work out indoors, or outdoors in an aqua gym.

Sprawled in front of it is the palatial, four-layered Signature Pool, spanning some 50m wide. Its curving contours are a spectacular sight, made even more impressive when lit up at night.

All these will be at the disposal of residents of the project’s 480 units which feature sleek designs and practical layouts that maximise utilisation of space.

They come with stunning views of the sea, town or hillside. The intermediate units are sized from 590sq ft to 830sq ft, and come with two bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Corner units range from 1,313sq ft to 2,256sq ft, and have three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a luxurious 28ft-wide living hall with sliding and pivoting glass doors.

Only limited units are still available, with prices ranging from RM560,000 to RM1.3mil, and averaging around RM650 to RM800 psf.

Living at Arte-S is highly conve-nient as its location along Jalan Bukit Gambier in Sungai Dua puts residents in close proximity to various dining, retail, shopping, education and healthcare amenities.
