Opus named in The Spaces future of apartment-living article
Do you have a wellbeing clinic at home? An oak-clad co-working nook or a private padel court? No? Well very soon your neighbours might. The world’s most successful, new residential developments are no longer just places to live but elaborate schemes to envy. Increasingly, residents with means want to live with an immediate connection to contemporary amenities — and people. That means workspaces to rival the office, hotel-grade spas and light, airy communal areas showcasing stand-out interiors and materials.
Gone are the days when a multi-unit housing project could claim to offer ‘premium’ hospitality with a solitary concierge desk and dingy business centre. Today, with the lines between home and work permanently blurred and ‘wellbeing’ a daily necessity, people want to live, work, restore and connect with convenience, like they’re living at the Standard hotel.
No matter the scheme, location or price point, this commitment to personalisation will characterise the next generation of residential developments. According to Nicholas Gray, executive director at residential developer Native Land, residents want to feel seen. Early next year the company will deliver Opus, set to be London’s tallest prime residential development. ‘We have taken a considered and flexible approach to amenity design that reflects how people live today, rather than relying on long held assumptions,’ he says. ‘Our priority is to ensure that every resident, with their varied routines, interests and backgrounds, can identify spaces within the building that genuinely support their daily lives.’ Deliberate choices made at Opus include reducing the size of the pool to introduce a bouldering wall and a padel court in the restored Victorian arches, ‘recognising the shift toward more social forms of exercise’. There’s also a dedicated art studio.
As for the podcasting studio, private screening room and music room — complete with a baby grand piano? Once the realm of excess, amenities on this scale are no longer the exception to the rule.
