Distinctive YOHO MIDTOWN residences in New Territories West
with special glass facade at the top
HK$6 million investment in art installations

YOHO MIDTOWN is Sun Hung Kai Properties' (SHKP) new major residential development in the New Territories West. It is designed for the young at heart and people looking for a happy lifestyle and it has attracted considerable attention. The project is modeled on Tokyo Midtown where artistic elements blend with the architecture and green space.

Sun Hung Kai Real Estate Agency Project Director - Sales Amy Teo said: "YOHO MIDTOWN will be an exquisite model community by SHKP. We will invest HK$6 million to add aesthetic touches to the project's design, materials and interior details. Every corner of the property will have an artistic ambience for residents.

District's Tallest Residence

Sun Hung Kai Real Estate Agency Special Project Manager Alain Chung, said: "Following the success of YOHO Town phase I, the first-rate design of YOHO MIDTOWN will make it a distinctive new residence in the New Territories West. The eight towers will be arranged in an L shape. YOHO MIDTOWN, with its base situated at the top of the shopping mall, will be the highest residential property. Tower M6 will be the tallest. There will be Crystal Mansions on the four top floors of Towers of M1 to M5, and on the top floors of M6 to M9. These units will feature unique glass walls and floor-to-ceiling windows that cost twice as much as standard units. The views of Mai Po and Shenzhen will make these units very special in the city."

Picturesque Landscape Resembles Famous Painting

Mr Chung continued: "The project is modeled on the concept of Tokyo Midtown. Artistic elements will be fused with the vast greenery to take residents away from the hustle and bustle of the city while still close by. The garden will be landscaped as a large MIDTOWN tableau with the blue of the outdoor swimming pool as the core. From there green foliage will stretch out to symbolize YOHO resident's spirit to spread happiness. Looking at this from above will definitely please the eyes."

Natural Art Measures Up To Tokyo Midtown

Mr Chung also said that more than 700 trees would be planted throughout the development. Two piazzas on the ground floor will be filled with rare trees and next to these will be MIDTOWN Park; a 27,000-square-foot lawn with colorful, artistic flora that will be a horticultural showcase revealing the natural beauty of the changing seasons just like Tokyo Midtown.

Master Sculptures Add Artistic Taste

The interior will be filled with artistic elements. Internationally-renowned sculptor Aries Lee will create three large pieces for the development symbolizing the art of interpersonal and social communication to give residents visual and artistic enjoyment.

The sculptures "Echo", "Conversation" and "Integration" will be placed to highlight their special meanings. "Echo" at the entrance to the ground floor atrium will reflect the responsive and caring emotions individuals feel for society, and "Conversation" on the fifth floor podium will echo the happy dialogue. "Integration" in the clubhouse lobby will emphasize the energy and vitality resulting from effective communication.

YOHO happy community

YOHO will be a model happy community. SHKP wants to provide a cosmopolitan, vibrant, carefree, healthy and happy community for the young-at-heart who value quality of life and family and personal relationships.

YOHO MIDTOWN will follow YOHO Town by merging the 'Individual' - personal elements, 'Connectivity' - bringing people together with comprehensive transport and 'Space' - extensive living space. The project reflects SHKP's commitment to making YOHO MIDTOWN a healthy and happy community with a brand-new lifestyle concept for residents.

YOHO MIDTOWN

YOHO MIDTOWN will have eight residential towers containing 1,890 units ranging from 400 to 1,400 square feet with one to four bedrooms. About half will have two bedrooms, and there will be special units available. YOHO MIDTOWN will make clever use of space and combine architecture and nature to offer a chic style of living.
