Be entranced by the description of an idyllic life, much improved by the involvement of Aston Martin.


'The gracious curves of the 816ft tower don’t have that much to do with the lines of Aston Martin’s sports cars; instead, the affinity is with the brand’s deployment of proportion and elegance. With the waterfront façade curving gently like a sail, the building being built to meticulous tolerances and environmental regulations in a part of the world where architecture is coming under ever-increasing scrutiny. Nevertheless, the Residences still stands out amongst a thicket of new towers. This is due in part to the dramatic notch at the 55th floor, where there’s a large terrace opening off the residents’ fitness centre and spa, housing the outdoor infinity pool. Above this deck loom the penthouse levels, rising up like an entirely separate structure. The curving façade sits atop a framework of sculptural concrete beams, giving each floor a very distinct character.' 


How wonderful it all sounds. Presumably the underground garage will be fulll of the flat owners Aston Martin cars, making them appear rather commonplace.

I am quite content to be able to live in a 2 storey house, with a quarter of an acre garden to enjoy.
Put me in a 66 storey block of flats, looking out at 'a thicket of new towers' and water, I would soon die of boredom.
Sorry, not an Aston Martin model for me.
