Design of the Times


The Westminster Terrace refocuses luxury living

Welcome to Approach Bay and The Westminster Terrace, jointly developed by Grosvenor — noted for its three-century history and work in London’s Belgravia and Mayfair — and Hong Kong-based Asia Standard International Group, active in residential, hospitality and commercial property since its foundation in 1984. The latest addition to Hong Kong’s skyline sits less than 20 minutes from Central, Hong Kong International Airport and Mainland China.

The Westminster Terrace distinguishes itself by placing an emphasis on design that contributes to residents’ quality of life. An international team has been assembled that will ensure The Westminster Terrace has Grosvenor’s signature on every facet of the property. At The Westminster Terrace, luxury is realised by design quality, longevity, a blend of the past, present and future, architectural boldness, sensual appeal and tranquillity provided by five-star management.

The Westminster Terrace rises above the heart of one of Hong Kong’s greenest areas, overlooking the South China Sea. This is undoubtedly a modern, lifestyle-focused property that responds creatively to the unique environment around it. Architect Paul Davis & Partners seamlessly blends community and exclusivity in The Westminster Terrace’s core architectural design.

Waltzing into the dramatic lobby you’ll be greeted by Singapore-based Koichiro Ikebuchi’s elegant Japanese aesthetic focused on a continuity and connection between indoor and outdoor spaces, and a balance between natural and controlled light. The public spaces are stamped with Atelier Ikebuchi’s unmistakable design philosophy, but continue outside to the clubhouse and you’ll stroll through gardens. Further on Tara Bernerd & Partners’ award-winning Tara Bernard has applied her characteristic eye toward bold colour and simultaneously warm space to The Westminster Terrace’s penthouse suite — launching this year.

The Westminster Terrace features all the amenities you’d expect from a property like it: A complete clubhouse with infinity pool, Jacuzzi, garden, gym and tennis court, 24-hour security and a concierge ready to assist and advise at any time. Each of the 59 units (ranging approximately from 3,200 to 6,500 square feet) is gifted with a view of the sea, the Tsing Ma and Ting Kau bridges and islands beyond. And last, but not least, every unit has a generous ceiling height and fitted with green features — like water recycling facilities and light-maximising floor to ceiling windows constructed with Pilkington Activ™ self-cleaning glass. A perfect panorama every time.
