• Colliers announces The Tower at London SW8

    7 February 2012

    Colliers International recently held an exhibition in Hong Kong for The Tower at One St George Wharf, London SW8, at 180m one of the tallest residential towers in Europe.

    The Tower, from developer St George PLC, will be a shimmering column rising from the river that is intended to become the pinnacle in sophisticated city living.  Located next to the River Thames, at 50-storeys and crowned by a stunning triplex penthouse, it will boast some of the most spectacular views across London’s famous skyline.

    The Tower will feature 223 one, two and three bedroom apartments, through to two exclusive duplex penthouses and one unique triplex penthouse.

    As well as being one of the most exclusive residencies in London, The Tower will be one of the most environmentally sustainable buildings of its type and will feature a series of green initiatives such as a wind-turbine on its roof and the use of the water from the London Aquifer to provide heat and cooling.

    The 280-meter-tall Lumina Shanghai, developed by Henderson Land Group and designed by Gensler, is the tallest skyscraper in the Xuhui Riverside District.


    A sophisticated yet modern setting was derived by juxtaposition of Indochine-Vietnamese features and wood-fire inspired material palettes. Re-interpretation of the spatial order of a typical Indochine-Vietnamese mansion has been adopted to give hierarchy, layers and details to the space.
