<p class="has-text-align-center"><em>Picturesque surroundings of Lantau Yacht Club provide a perfect backdrop to launch of Rolls-Royce’s quintessential four-door grand tourer.</em></p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Ghost Series II</h3>



<p>The first Ghost Series II that was showcased at the launch is a Ghost Extended Series II. It features a sheer, monolithic exterior in magnificent Twilight Purple, complemented by a hand-painted single coachline in Seashell. The motor car offers 170mm more space in the rear suite, enabled by extending the rear doors and apertures only, which preserves its elegant silhouette.</p>

<p>Clients can choose from two new 22-inch, 9-spoke wheel designs, one fully- and one part-polished. Both treatments are an elegant and modern complement to Ghost Series II’s contemporary yet timeless design and subtly reflect its underlying potency.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Exquisite Interior</h3>



<p>The interior of Ghost Series II celebrates craftsmanship, both analogue and digital. Housed in the new pillar-to-pillar glass panel, the Central Information Display incorporates the marque’s advanced operating system. This enables clients to extend their Bespoke commission from hardware to software as the colour of the digital instrument dials can now be tailored to complement the motor car’s interior palette or exterior finish.</p>

<p>Entertainment and connectivity functions have been significantly upgraded for Ghost Series II. Rear seat passengers can now connect up to two streaming devices to the rear screens, stream independently on each screen, and select their preferred entertainment from a newly developed interface, which also manages seating functions such as massaging, heating and cooling. Bluetooth® headphones of any type can be paired with the rear seat infotainment system, and all occupants benefit from an upgraded Wi-Fi® hotspot and USB-C® charging ports hidden discreetly in the centre console.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>C</strong>ontemporary craft</h3>



<p>Ghost Series II benefits from bold new expressions of contemporary craft, meticulously conceived by the marque’s artisans. Alongside the Central Information Display, on the passenger side, is the new Spirit of Ecstasy Clock Cabinet. This vitrine houses an analogue timepiece and an up-lit, mirror-polished, solid stainless-steel Spirit of Ecstasy figurine. She is placed on a stage with a matte black back panel and high gloss side panels to create a reflection effect. On entering the motor car, the Spirit of Ecstasy is initially illuminated from below, as if she is being lit by a spotlight, before her stage lighting settles to a soft glow.</p>

<p>Ghost Series II continues Rolls-Royce’s exploration of textiles with Duality Twill, a new rayon fabric made from bamboo, first introduced with the Cullinan Series II. Inspired by the bamboo grove near Sir Henry Royce’s former winter home in South of France, the twill textile features an embroidered ‘Duality’ graphic, reflecting the interlinked initials of the brand&#8217;s founders and evoking nautical themes reminiscent of sailing yachts along the French Riviera. Developed over a year in collaboration with a master weaver, this intricate textile requires 20 hours to construct and incorporates up to 2.2 million stitches and 11 miles of thread. Each piece is meticulously crafted and laser-cut for precision. The base textile is available in three colours — Lilac, Chocolate, and Black — with clients able to select from 51 thread colours.&nbsp;</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Superb Engineering</h3>



<p>At the heart of Ghost Series II is the marque’s uncompromising, potent and near-silent 6.75-litre twin-turbocharged V12 petrol engine and hallmark eight-speed gearbox, enabling all-wheel steering and all-wheel drivetrain. Maximum torque is available from just 1,600rpm – only 600rpm above tick-over, creating the perception of one, endless gear and the unique ‘waftability’ associated with the Rolls-Royce experience.</p>

<p>Aroma Vera offers a one stop Wellness Centre that is very conveniently located in the heart of the CBD of Tsim Tsha Tsui near Harbour City in high-class retail facilities at Room 1517, Star House.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Health benefits of scents</h3>



<p>Aroma is known to have a powerful influence on memories and emotions. Recent research at the University of California, Irvine has now highlighted other beneficial aspects of cute scents on brain function. Their study found that falling asleep with the scent of lavender, peppermint and rosemary can keep your brain healthy as you age. The research team discovered that people between the ages of 65 and 80, who were exposed to pleasant scents every night for several months, often improved their scores on tests that required learning and recalling word lists.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>The conclusions of the study, which appears in&nbsp;<em>Frontiers in Neuroscience,</em> state: “Minimal olfactory enrichment administered at night produces improvements in both cognitive and neural functioning. Thus, olfactory enrichment may provide an effective and low-effort pathway to improved brain health.”</p>

<p>Since the interest rate reduction cycle began at the end of last year, the luxury residential market has become more active. During the renovation process, Summit has received enquiries from multiple interested buyers, added the spokesperson. This sale was made due to the buyer&#8217;s strong sincerity and the nature of the offer. However, the company plans to retain the project for long-term rental income and has no plans for further sales, although adjustments will be made depending on market conditions, revealed the spokesperson.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Accomplished architect who has completed landmark projects</h3>



<p><strong>William Lim</strong> has gained a fine reputation in the architectural profession by successfully working on some major architectural projects around the world. This includes the Marina Bay Sands project in Singapore, where he and his team were the interior designers for the public and hotel areas. Another landmark project he completed with the same team of architects was the Raffles City in Chongqing. His recent project sees him working on The Aperture clubhouse and lobby, a scheme developed by Hang Lung Properties Limited.&nbsp;</p>



<p><strong>What is CL3&#8217;s overall design concept and style for THE APERTURE Clubhouse?</strong></p>



<p>I think The Aperture has a really beautiful view looking out. And also, we looked at this neighbourhood and the environment and felt that this is really a family-friendly area. So, our concept is really based on family and providing a timeless elegance in the design.&nbsp;</p>



<p>When I do design, I always think of the user of the building. In this project, we wanted to cater to the needs and the enjoyment of a family.&nbsp;</p>



<p>We feel that to have a kind of homey feeling is very important, and to give it the sense of a timelessness. That&#8217;s where we have made certain reference back to some traditional elements like the wood mouldings and elements like the wooden floor to make you feel warmer. And also, it would be enjoyable as a family gathering place. This is really what inspired me to come up with the design.&nbsp;</p>



<p>For the clubhouse facilities’ design,&nbsp; I think probably my favourite one would be the gym; it&#8217;s a good setup and it has this very beautiful view looking out, which is quite rare for Hong Kong. It has a lot of light coming through, so I think in the morning it would be a wonderful place to exercise.</p>



<p>We separated the wellness and the gym to allow the health club and the gym to remain open for 24 hours. Part of the design is to build in the flexibility so you can actually access one part of the clubhouse without going through the main lobby of the clubhouse.</p>



<p>The children’s playroom is a fun area. We fantasized about this kind of tree house in the jungle surrounded by candy. That became an inspiration; when we designed the lighting, it&#8217;s all based on lollipops and candy bars. And it&#8217;s also very colourful and has a very beautiful view of the city.</p>



<p><strong>What do you consider to be the key features of THE APERTURE project? Which design element best showcases its unique characteristics?</strong></p>



<p>When we planned the overall circulation and the function, the key aspect we thought about was the family and what the members of the family would be able to do here. So actually, we cater to the whole family and to children of different ages. There&#8217;s a playroom and also a study area for the teenage years.</p>



<p>And then, of course, there are the social spaces, there&#8217;s the pool, the gym room and activities that really embrace the notion of family value.&nbsp;</p>



<p>We want to create a timeless elegance. A lot of the panelling goes back to a more traditional, European architecture that is very warming. That&#8217;s the kind of reference that we draw on for the design.&nbsp;</p>



<p>To me, the interior design should reflect the architecture. The architecture itself has a lot of curves. It probably has to do with our proximity to the water. I think that wavy pattern is very nice to use as an element and also to soften the urban scape, because I think there are a lot of more rectilinear structures around us.</p>



<p>And to use it for the interior, it also helps us to soften up the circulation. Again, back to the idea of being very family oriented, we also want the young children to be safe in this environment, so we tried to get rid of sharp corners.</p>



<p><strong>The main colours of THE APERTURE feature warm wood finishes paired with vibrant colours to enhance the visual effects of the clubhouse. Can you share the reasons for this colour combination?</strong></p>



<p>To create this feeling of warmth, we actually used a lot of environmentally engineered wood that is sustainable. It gives warmth to the project and the wood flooring is very pleasant and projects a very cozy atmosphere, and it’s sustainable.</p>



<p>We wanted this to be a joyful place for people to really enjoy, where you can probably spend the whole day at the clubhouse. There&#8217;s a lot of greenery around and a lot of open views. The idea is really to blend in and bring in the nature into part of the interior and using colour and the choice of materials, using the more natural material to link up with the exterior views.</p>



<p>The use of stone and wood gives us ample opportunity to make a timeless design and bring in elements like the fireplace, bringing in the luxury and the warmth. And also, in our choice of fabrics for the sort of soft furnishings, we added colour to be able to make you feel&nbsp; more relaxed. Again, we want it to feel like a home for the family.</p>



<p>In the lounge area, we have a fireplace and it has a stonewall feature and warm, comfortable seating, features which are all customized for this project. In this project, we actually incorporated a lot of warm tones, like the brownish maroon colour, which also echoes the architecture of the project.</p>



<p><strong>How do you balance functionality and aesthetics?&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p>I think my philosophy about design is that it has to address both. So, in terms of aesthetics, we brought in divisions and panelling of the wall panels, and also in our panel focal wall with the fireplace and the way we divided the panelling is very special to this area. At the reception we use a multi-coloured glass which is part of bringing joyfulness and warmth to the project.</p>



<p>Functionally everything has to work and has to be very flexible. So actually, from this kind of family lounge, we could actually connect back to the music karaoke room, and from the gym we could actually have 24-hour access. A lot of these flexibility and functional requirements were first addressed and then we thought of the aesthetics.</p>



<p>We use both a combination of task lighting and also some decorative lighting. And the decorative lighting tends to be more simple, more contemporary, quite elegant, and that works together with a more traditional wood panelling to create a contemporary feel with a classical reference.&nbsp;</p>



<p>We have a lot of high windows so you can bring in a lot of daylight. That saves on the use of lighting, and we use sustainable LED lighting and a lot of environmental engineered wood which has sustainable certificates to back up the source.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Vice Chairman and Managing Director of Wheelock Properties, shares the untold stories and rich history of the Peak</p>
</div></div>



<p>“Wharf and Wheelock Properties have penned chapter after chapter of significant history on The Peak. Our upcoming project is poised to become another timeless chapter in The Peak’s illustrious history,” says Ricky Wong. &nbsp;</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Privileged Serenity</h3>



<p>For over a century, The Peak has been Hong Kong’s ultimate address, a sanctuary of serenity high above the bustling city. Its unique microclimate offers a refreshing escape, particularly during the summer months. From its origins as a retreat for colonial elites, the Peak’s history is interwoven with prominent families like the Crawfords, co-founders of Lane Crawford, who left an indelible mark on the area. In 1885, the Crawford family built Craigieburn, their grand residence. Its historical roots have remained firmly planted on Plantation Road. This prestigious address, Plantation Road, once known as Bank Street, holds a rich legacy.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>From the grand residences of HSBC executives to the vibrant social scene of The Peak Club, this coveted locale has long been synonymous with exclusivity and refined living. Today, that legacy continues at Plantation Road, a contemporary tribute to The Peak’s enduring allure. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Crafting Timeless Masterpieces on the Peak</h3>



<p>Wharf and Wheelock are prominent developers with a significant stake in residential land on The Peak in Hong Kong. “Inspired by global cultural influences and intricate craftsmanship, we sculpt the world’s most sought-after lifestyle on the internationally renowned hilltop,” says Ricky Wong, Vice Chairman and Managing Director of Wheelock Properties Limited.&nbsp;</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>A notable example is Strawberry Hill, situated on Plunkett’s Road. This large-scale luxury residential project on the hilltop was developed in two phases in the 1970s. It features as the first large-scale club in a hilltop residential area. Even today, the project remains a rare and exclusive development, symbolizing sophistication and luxury.</p>

<p>Mount Nicholson, 11 Plantation Road, 77/79 Peak Road, Gough Hill Residence and Chelsea Court at 63 Mount Galley Road are other prestigious examples among the Peak Collection.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Symphony of Design and Luxurious Living</h3>



<p>“Living on the top is a status symbol,” says Wong.&nbsp;</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>The upcoming project of Peak Collection, 1 Plantation Road consists of 20 low-density detached houses, with areas ranging from 4,600 to 7,500 square feet. Each house owns its private garage, offering a high degree of privacy. Five houses will be launched in the first phase. No similar type of new residential property will be found on The Peak in the next 24 months.&nbsp;</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The charm of Southern France</h3>



<p>The development exudes a distinct South of France theme, which stands proudly on the top of the mountain, affording magnificent views of the sea to the south and conveying a Mediterranean ambience.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>&nbsp;Each space of the project has different elements, mirroring the charm of Southern France. Four uniquely themed gardens have been meticulously designed, each tailored to complement the individuality of the independent houses within the development. &nbsp; &nbsp;</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>Embracing sustainability and environmental considerations were part of the project. For instance, the Peak Collection Gallery, Peak Salon incorporates the innovative reuse of leftover materials and the strategic sourcing of local materials. Leftover wall coverings and curtains were used to perfectly combine the painting style of South French artist Jean Cocteau to craft the art work. Leftover stones from the show flat helped to create artistic furnishings.&nbsp;</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Nature inspired</h3>



<p>“Nature inspired our design language of organic forms crafted in materials with a close relationship to the earth, contrasted with clean lines and a polished sense of materiality. In curating the art program, we approached art as a way of strengthening this connection, evoking nature,” says Alexandra Champalimaud, a famous designer from New York who is a long term partner for Peak Collection residences of Wheelock.</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>The grand heritage and natural beauty of this iconic neighbourhood are effortlessly integrated into the elegant design and architecture.&nbsp;</p>



<div style="height:15px" aria-hidden="true" class="wp-block-spacer"></div>



<p>“This project holds a special combination of ease and refinement. Like the Côte d&#8217;Azur, it is about nature undisrupted yet elevated by a human expression of art and beauty. The homes combine chic elegance with a quiet sense of intimacy, revealing subtle surprises in the details,” adds Champalimaud. &nbsp;</p>
