11 Gurney Drive

11 Gurney Drive, Gurney Drive, Penang Property


Design Philosophy of 11 Gurney Drive
The elegant tower described here will set a new benchmark not only for its international standards of quality, it will also change our perceptions of high rise living through the attention to meticulous detail in every aspect of its design which is worthy of such prestigious address along Penang's most prime waterfront. It is the culmination of our uncompromising effort based on our intimate understanding of what privileged dwelling in Malaysia really means: a deep consideration of the manner in which our activities and needs are affected by contemporary living in a tropical monsoon climate.
This development concerns core values about dwelling and lifestyles, issues that can normally only be addressed in the most exclusive bungalow designs, almost never in a condominium development. It is about placing the building not in contrast to but as an extension of its environment, about clean and open living spaces configured to welcome daylight, sunlit mornings and guests.
It is also about providing sufficient natural ventilation for a house to feel aerated and larger windows for the pleasure of pooled sunlight. About build in linen cabinets and living room-sized balconies.
It is about wrapping a building and each carefully placed unit in its context of sunlight, sea and wind.

Site
We begin with the Golden Mile of Gurney DriveMillionaire's Row, home to number of existing high and condominiums, apartments and historical mansions along a boulevard facing the tide and sea breeze, lined by established rows of casuarinas and hardwoods.
The development sits on a rectangular site, facing the Straits: the elegant columns of 61 spacious units gathered in a group by the sea edge as lantern towers for the address. On the opposite end past a garden terrace pool are two exclusive villas with the hills of Penang forming the background.
Sixty one plus two. Sixty three units in all. Magic numbers if one were to dream of low density exclusivity, open spaces and a privileged population.
Or general seclusion, landscaped lanais and private lobbies.
And the quiet road home.
