Water, or eau in French, plays a big role in the luxury projects featured in this week’s issue. From projects with infinity edge pools to a pristine ecologically preserved 280 million-year old lake, their developers recognise the allure and attraction water have on their buyers.
In Bukit Jalil, developer Trinity Group Sdn Bhd recognises the allure of water and will be creating several features in its up-and-coming Z Residence to capitalise on its appeal.
These will take the form of a cascading water feature as the entrance statement, a floating garden surrounded by water courtyards and an infinity pool.
Water, is certainly our life’s most natural luxury.
