“Did you know that Opus Hong Kong holds the record for the most expensive apartment ever sold in Hong Kong?” I ask.
Opus Hong Kong. The name itself whispers of luxury and exclusivity. This isn’t just a building. It’s a statement. A masterpiece of modern architecture perched on the slopes of Mid-Levels. Designed by the renowned Frank Gehry this was his first residential project in Asia. It’s a bold design. A swirling dance of glass and steel.
Imagine stepping inside one of these magnificent apartments. Each is over 600 square meters. They are unique spaces. They boast unconventional layouts and offer breathtaking panoramic views of Victoria Harbour. The glass-clad columns form an exoskeleton resembling reeds swaying in the wind. This building isn’t just beautiful it’s environmentally conscious too. It achieved a provisional BEAM Platinum rating for its environmental performance.
But the story of Opus Hong Kong goes beyond its impressive design. In 2012 one apartment on the eighth floor sold for a staggering HK$470 million. That’s over US$61 million. A new record for Hong Kong. Since 2013 the British Consul-General to Hong Kong has even called this unique building home.
Opus Hong Kong isn’t simply a collection of apartments. It’s a testament to vision a symbol of luxury and a landmark that redefines modern living in Hong Kong. It is a true icon of architectural innovation. This building is a true marvel of modern design. It seamlessly blends luxury with sustainability. It is a perfect example of the harmony between artistic vision and environmental responsibility. It’s a place where history is made.
