Upper Crust Suites - Maniera Architects

Upper Crust Suites

This medium sized Residential Project was briefed to provide high end, larger than usual apartments associated with luxury living. Involving 20 apartments, the dwellings are made up of recessed terraces at an angle such that the design itself creates privacy from one terrace to the other. Furthermore, the project also involved 1 Basement Level to provide a garage with each apartment.

introdution
In this project, the clients were persuaded to reduce the number of plots in order to create spacious, luxury terraced apartments. A distinctive common entrance was introduced, providing a sense of arrival and exclusivity while reinforcing the development’s premium character.
design philosophy The common areas were carefully designed to allow natural light to penetrate deep into the building, enhancing the sense of openness and connectivity. This thoughtful approach ensured that communal spaces were both functional and visually inviting.
design philosophy
The project was commissioned with a value of €2,000,000, reflecting a commitment to creating high-quality, innovative apartments that continue to stand out for their scale, light, and thoughtful design.
The project embraced a bold and unconventional approach, prioritising space and luxury over compact, crammed units. Its design set a precedent for subsequent developments, establishing a trend for generous living spaces in a market often dominated by denser layouts.
