Designed by 2nd Edition, the Ki Residences show apartments convey a sense of tranquility that’s inspired by Japanese aesthetics
Nestled within the exclusive District 21 enclave, the Ki Residences condominium offers a moment of quiet respite within an idyllic setting. To be built by property developers Hoi Hup Sunway, a joint venture between Hoi Hup Realty and Sunway Development, the luxury residential complex sits on a quiet stretch shrouded by lush greenery; thus offering the highly-desired combination of both enviable views and privacy.
To capture Ki Residences’ tranquil elegance, the developers tasked 2nd Edition—renowned for creating inspiring show units for luxury developments—to dress the interiors of three show apartments as well as the main sales gallery.
The whole development is to be based around four important keywords that all represent the Japanese word, ki. A word with multiple subtle nuances, ki is often used to represent energy, atmosphere, mind, spirit, or even feelings.
