Yuccie” refers to a slice of Generation Y – the Young Urban Creatives. It describes a proactive conviction that not only do we deserve to pursue our dreams; we should profit from them. Similarly, the project is meant to be a dream that benefits its residents. Due to the rectilinear nature of the site, the 4 residential towers are arranged in an orthogonal manner, creating two intersecting internalized streetscapes that serve to break up the otherwise large podium block. This creates a livelier pedestrian environment at the ground level. For waterproofing, Caltite system has been applied in swimming pool wall & slab, Jacuzzi and indoor pool feature for long-term and maintenance-free protection.
