Marina South: A Harmonious Blend of Indoor-Outdoor Living

Eva Wong's Award-Winning Design Maximizes Waterfront Luxury

The design inspiration for Marina South stems from the desire to create a living space that not only offers spectacular views but also fosters a connection with the environment. Eva Wong's approach to the apartment's design emphasizes fluidity and openness, with curved elements that echo the ebb and flow of the nearby sea. The result is an elegant and cohesive atmosphere that invites residents to relax and entertain against the backdrop of Island South's waterfront.

What sets Marina South apart is its zero-corridor layout, which eliminates unnecessary partitions to create a spacious and light-filled environment. The living and dining areas merge without barriers, and glass doors extend this openness to the outdoor terraces. This design choice not only enhances the visual appeal but also promotes a healthier lifestyle by maximizing the natural ventilation from the sea breeze.

The realization of this design incorporated cutting-edge technology to ensure a stylish yet hygienic living space. Smart home features, such as touchless toilet flushes and remote-controlled systems for lighting and air conditioning, cater to heightened health awareness in the post-COVID era. Materials were carefully selected for their durability and antimicrobial properties, addressing practical concerns like humidity and the client's dust allergy.

Marina South's design also excels in functionality, with a special focus on the client couple's differing lifestyles. Full-height double-glazed sliding doors between bedrooms offer flexibility, soundproofing, and light maximization. The inclusion of a barrier-free bathroom and wide passages ensures that the apartment is future-proof, accommodating the couple's needs as they transition into retirement.

Overcoming the challenges of an irregular-shaped layout and hidden mechanical systems, the design team succeeded in transforming Marina South into a beacon of modern living. The project, completed in Hong Kong within eight months, showcases Eva Wong's commitment to creating spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also deeply considerate of the occupants' well-being and lifestyle.

Marina South's excellence in design has been recognized with an Iron A' Design Award, a testament to Eva Wong's ability to blend practicality with innovation. This prestigious accolade highlights the project's fulfillment of professional standards and its contribution to a better living environment. Eva Wong's vision for Marina South has set a new benchmark for residential design, where luxury meets comfort in a symphony of design excellence.
