Completion of the W LUXE office tower in Sha Tin 沙田辦公樓 W LUXE 落成交樓 The Group completed its boutique office tower, W LUXE, in Shek Mun, Sha Tin in late November 2020, with owners taking possession of their new units. The contemporary tower has an efficient layout, built with quality materials and complete with comprehensive facilities, setting a new standard for commercial developments in the district. Quality project wins industry recognition The W LUXE design incorporated green considerations to save energy and reduce carbon emissions. The contemporary façade makes extensive use of a low-E double-glazed curtain wall system to let in natural light for brighter, more spacious ambience. The external wall of the podium is embellished with vertical green walls. These building materials help effectively reduce the indoor temperature, reducing energy consumption from air-conditioners. W LUXE offers 429 office units on 22 office floors. Each unit has a private lavatory and individual air-conditioning units. The efficient layout is coupled with a typical floor height of about 4.2 meters to give a spacious feel. Apart from typical units, there are also special units with flat roofs and penthouse units connected to private roofs. As the latest project in the W-series developments, W LUXE enhances the WORK+ concept to introduce a new work-life balance experience in the office. Two distinctive co-sharing spaces are available to cater for the business needs of small and medium enterprises and starts-ups, along with value-added services provided by the professional management service team. Club W, on Level 1, can house a variety of corporate events, whilst The O 2 outdoor green area on the Level 2 podium is designed for networking and relaxation. The fine quality of W LUXE has been widely appreciated. The owners are content with the quality of their new units, especially with the quality materials and the spacious feeling with the higher floor height. The handover procedure and on-site anti-pandemic measures are also highly praised by owners, who are confident about the property management services in the future. The development was recognized in the 2020 Outstanding Construction and Renovation Award, organized by the Hong Kong Professional Building Inspection Academy, winning the new Quality Commercial Building award. Linked to the railway network W LUXE is about a four-minute walk to MTR Shek Mun Station for connection to the railway network. Upon the full opening of the Tuen Ma Line this year, travelling to and from New Territories West will be even more convenient. The project also enjoys easy access to main roads connected to four major tunnels (Tate’s Cairn Tunnel, Lion Rock Tunnel, Eagle’s Nest Tunnel and Shing Mun Tunnels) for fast, convenient transport across the city. W LUXE is located in Shek Mun, Sha Tin, which is an emerging business district with easy access W LUXE 位於沙田石門新興商貿區，位置四通八達 10 業務動向 Vol 99 • Q1 2021 • SHKP Quarterly
