Chow Chee Wah, managingdirector of Gamuda Land,says that Horizon Hills is oneof the preferred residentiallocations because of its naturalfeatures and world-classfacilities and state-of-the-artsafety and security features.

Resort living

in the city

IN the midst of the hustle andbustle of thriving Nusajaya inIskandar Malaysia, Horizon Hills

is a picture of calm and serenity.This low-density development

is spread across 11 luxuriousresidential precincts andfeatures cluster homes, semi-detached houses, bungalows,condominiums and shop offices.

A gated development project,Horizon Hills also features aprivate 18-hole par 72 designergolf course, which is the only golfcourse residential property in the

flagship zone.This 1,200-acre integrated

residential township is a strategicjoint venture development projectbetween Gamuda Land and UEMSunrise Berhad.

Venturing down south

Gamuda Land is known for itsflagship development projectsin the Klang Valley, includingKota Kemuning in Shah Alamand Bandar Botanic in Klang, soits move to begin a developmentproject down south in Iskandarwas a bold step.

We decided to venture downsouth because the initiatives taken

by the government to promotedevelopments in the southerncorridor have boosted the growthof Johor tremendously, particularlyin Iskandar Malaysia. The IskandarRegional Development Authorityscomprehensive blueprint for

Enhancing thequality of life

One of Gamuda Lands keypillars is to create an idealliving environment for itsresidents. It therefore strivesto enrich communities by

exceeding expectations andcommitting to values thatenhance lives through its:lInnovative design

Gamuda Lands township anddevelopments are designedto complement naturesglory and meet world-classstandards to pursue long-term holistic living solutions.lHolistic well-being

Gamuda Land believes inhealthy living environmentsand employs world-classexpertise to look into itson-going environmentalpreservation efforts.lCommunity living

Gamuda Land recognises theimportance of communityliving. This is why its masterplan promotes a social andbalanced lifestyle.lAssured security-

Peace of mind aligns the soul.Gamuda Land understandsthis and so its developmentsare thoughtfully planned toensure safety in every aspect.lEcological

sustainability GamudaLand upholds the integrityof a natural ecosystem byproviding surroundings andfeatures that are designedto encourage its residentsto enjoy the beauty of theoutdoors.

Iskandar Malaysia has givenboth confidence and positivesentiments to local and foreigninvestors.

These initiatives have alsoattracted large multinationalcompanies to set up offices andoutlets within Nusajaya, saysChow Chee Wah, managingdirector of Gamuda Land.

Iskandar Malaysia has alsoattracted many significantdevelopments from variousindustries, including recreational,educational, medical and wellness,

high-tech industrial zones andalso state administration offices.

With the rapid populationgrowth within Nusajaya, wedeveloped Horizon Hills asthe residential componentto complement and supportNusajayas other non-residentialcomponents, explains Chow.

Unique offerings

In order to provide itsresidents with unrivalled livingenvironments, Horizon Hills wasput through a series of gruellingworkmanship assessments toensure that it is assured of thehighest standards in structural

integrity and craftsmanship inadherence to the ConstructionQuality Assessment SystemSingapores Building andConstruction Authority.

Horizon Hills strengths arebuilding the highest quality of

life in the aspects of home design,environmental architecture andsecurity features. After all, the keypillars of Gamuda Land includecreating the ideal environment forpeople to call home, says Chow.

Horizon Hills, one of thecatalyst residential developmentsin Nusajaya, was developedthrough meticulous planning topromote living among nature. Itsunderlying designs feature low-density neighbourhoods withlarge areas dedicated to greenparks and fields, and waterways

for residents to enjoy are clearly atestament to this.

The development of HorizonHills also preserves the naturaltopography of the land and itsexisting landscape with richnatural elements, providingresidents with a livingenvironment that is second tonone.

In addition to its residentialofferings, a central feature ofHorizon Hills is its golf course.

Nusajayas only residential golfcourse was designed by renownedAustralian architect Ross Watsonand is a favourite among bothprofessional and social golfers.

The golf course has been

awarded a number of prestigiousaccolades and has also hostedmany international tournaments.

Horizon Hills is also famousfor its signature clubhouse thatfeatures a range of facilities andamenities for the enjoyment of

its residents.Since its launch in 2007,

Horizon Hills is now halfwaythrough of its development. Threethousand units have been sold andHorizon Hills population now isabout 12,000 residents.

Our target market has alwaysbeen medium to high-end buyersand expatriates as we are apremier development in Nusajaya.We are also one of the preferredresidential locations because ofour natural features, world-classfacilities and state-of-the-art

safety and security features,Chow says.

Overcoming challenges

Chow says that as awarenessof Iskandar Malaysias vastpotential increases both locallyand internationally, the numberof property developers venturinginto this area will also increaseexponentially.

The emergence of IskandarMalaysia as an iconic developmentof the future with promisingopportunities continues to drawthe attention of global playersand this will create a highlychallenging and competitive

environment for propertydevelopers.

Despite this, the demandfor properties in HorizonHills remains positive as it isstrategically located withinNusajaya and its uniqueinfrastructure and landscapewhile being surrounded bycatalyst developments, saysChow.

He continues that Malaysianproperty prices, especiallythose in the southernregion, have alwaysbeen a highlightedissue and in spite of itsincrease, Gamuda Landhas always created its

products based on theprinciple of sustaining

value for generations.Our properties are built and

known in the market for theircontinuous investment growth.The Horizon Hills master planis designed to provide residentswith a high-quality lifestyle thatencourages community livingwith a wide range of amenitiesin a unique living environment.Horizon Hills is one of the bestexamples of how Gamuda Landelevates the standard of living inthe heart of a growth corridor,Chow concludes.

Building a lifestyleSTRAITS View 18, a freeholdproperty developed byExecutive Benchmark

Sdn Bhd, is located in the regalhills of Bukit Serene with alimited number of exclusiveunits available for discerningresidents to experience aluxurious lifestyle.

Straits View 18 is a merethree minutes drive away from

the city centre of Johor Baru,making it the perfect sanctuaryfor city folks.

The units are designed withelements of urban aesthetics the exterior architecture isinspired by the formation ofwaves and each sky villa hasits own panoramic view of theJohor Straits, while the rooftopis designed to resemble amoored boat.

Each sky villa starts from2,990sq ft and comes witha private lift lobby and highsecurity features.

The main entrance andguard house is inspired byGreco-Roman design, givingit an imposing presencethat contrasts well with thecontemporary architectureof the main building. Otherfeatures in the building includea sky garden, pool, lounge andgym.

Executive Benchmark, a localdeveloper under Kean LengGroup (KLG) of Companies,has been actively involvedin property developmentsfor decades. Several of thecompanys major projectsinclude Greenfield Regency,Molek Regency and Target,which have all received positiveresponse.

This has spurred thecompanys interest to venture

into the southern region.With the ongoing

development in the Iskandarregion, more foreign investorswill undoubtedly be attractedto the area and boost theeconomy as well as provide jobopportunities.

As a local developer,Executive Benchmark hasin-depth understanding of thesupply and demand dynamics inJohor Baru.

Most of our past projects

are within mature townshipssuch as Greenfield Regency andMolek Regency, where there areestablished communities. Weare not fighting with foreigndevelopers or other local topplayers. We place more emphasison niche market developmentand understand the local market

demand. That is why, for example,Greenfield Regency, whichconsists of 1,310 units, is 98% sold,says Wong Chin Aun, the directorof Executive Benchmark.

On the other hand, the futureof the JB market is still promisingand dependent on the locationand pricing. According to Wong,

Straits View 18, which is the lastpiece of land to be developed inBukit Serene, is unique with onlyfour units per floor, each between2,990sq ft and 4,780sq ft.

This is in contrast to the current

market products that have built-up between 800sq ft and1,000sq ft. Additionally, the sellingprice of the units in Straits View18 is reasonably valued fromRM630 per sq ft.

While there are many othercommercial and residentialdevelopments in the region,Executive Benchmark viewsthe competition as healthy andcreates its own forte.

Competition challenges thedevelopers and market players to

deliver better products to the end-consumers. Although our companymight not be well known compared

to our competitors, we are confidentabout our projects. We design andbuild for the people regardless ofinvestment. Our philosophy is toensure the residents are at theirmost comfortable when living in ourprojects, explains Wong.

As with the achievements of thedevelopers past projects, StraitsView 18 has all the same potentialfor success and more. Straits View18 is exclusive and low density.It is possibly the only residentialcondominium in the region withjust 47 units in a 17-storey building,which is considered a low-risebuilding.

The units have large build-upareas that are equivalent to thetypical penthouse size in the market.Furthermore, the tower itself is eye-catching and blends well into theexclusive atmosphere surrounded byhigh-rise buildings.

Despite its luxurious build, thedevelopers were careful to ensurethat the project is sustainable for thecommunity and environment.

The building features naturalcross-ventilation and sufficientdaylight. The developers alsomaximise the green space withinthe vicinity of the project and thedrive up the hill is lined with lushgreenery.

Our design guarantees thatresidents will have a comfortablelifestyle and low energyconsumption over the long term.

By building only 47 units, we limitthe number of residents in theneighbourhood to ensure thatcommunity lifestyle is optimal,adds Wong.

Straits View 18 caters to a nichemarket consisting of those whowish to live in total privacy withouthaving to sacrifice the convenienceof access to the city for work, dining,leisure and shopping needs.

Prime and prestige at MediniTHE phrase Location,location, location hasnever been more apt than

when investing in property.The location of a property is sovital that it is the fine line thatensures a propertys boomingsuccess or its terrible failure.

Developed by D PristineMedini Sdn Bhd, dPristine @Medini, the ongoing integrated

mixed development in Medini,can boast to having one of themost prime locations in theheart of Nusajaya.

It is situated in what is tobe Nusajayas central businessdistrict and is directly oppositethe world-famous Legolandtheme park, the Urban WellnessCentre by Temasek andKhazanah, and the GleneaglesHospital.

In addition, dPristineis located within a closedistance to a number ofcatalyst developments,including EduCity, PinewoodStudios, Puteri Harbour andKota Iskandar, The SouthernIndustrial and Logistics Cluster,Ascendas Nusajaya Tech Parkand the Afiat Health Park.

This prestigious mixedcommercial development willbe made up of four components two blocks of SOFOs (smalloffice flexible occupancy), agrade-A office tower, a designerhotel and a three-storey lifestylemall that supplement andcomplement each other.

In view of our strategiclocation, which is a businessand leisure hot spot, dPristinewas intentionally designedas an integrated commercialdevelopment.

We want it to be amixed development with

other commercial businesscomponents because it istargeted at expatriates andlocal visitors who come toNusajaya for work, leisure,education, medical and variousother reasons, says Datuk SooKai Chee, executive director(marketing and sales) ofMCT, the project manager fordPristine @ Medini.

Postcode pride

The plan is for dPristine tobe an international communitythat comprises expatriates fromaround the world.

We want our buyers to have

a prestigious address and thebest way to do this would beto have more foreign buyers.To make dPristine a brandedlocation, we have to have adiverse range of buyers.

Because of the manycatalyst developments inthe area, there will be manyexpatriates looking foraccommodation, either topurchase or to rent, and wewill be able to fulfil this need.Our advantage is that ourneighbours are not propertydevelopers but rather world-class venues like Legoland andthe Urban Wellness Centre,explains Soo.

But that is not all. Investorswill also be treated to sereneviews of the Linear Park andlakeside on the other side of thedPristine development. Theremarkable scenery within thisdevelopment will certainly be asight for sore eyes after a harddays work.

Soo goes on to say thatdPristines location will be amajor pull for investors, adding

that dPristine is not just sellingproperty but selling its location.

The Medini advantage

Medini is located in Nusajaya,which is Flagship B of the Iskandar

Development Region. Driven andbacked by Khazanah NasionalBerhad, Nusajaya is a strategicallyplanned city.

Khazanah has a long-termmaster development plan of25 years for Nusajaya. In the firstseven years, Khazanah has done asplendid job of bringing in catalystdevelopments from overseas.

Now Khazanah is focusing onbringing in property developersto Nusajaya to start developingthe area. From this planning,we foresee that Nusajayasdevelopment will be unlike anyother flagships in Iskandar, saysSoo.

Nusajaya does not only focus on

property development. There arealso other industries in Nusajayasuch as education, leisure, healthcare and logistics, which arealready in place.

These industries are expectedto generate numerous jobopportunities for people fromMalaysia and across the world.

Another advantage that Medinihas is that it is the only economiczone that offers investor-tailoredincentives.

These incentives include theexclusion of real property gainstax (RPGT) as well as other taxexemptions for selected promotedindustries.

Foreign investors will not be

subjected to the minimum pricethreshold for the purchase ofproperties either.

Facing challenges head on

There is a development boomin Nusajaya but not a lot ofinvestors recognise the potentialthat it has as visitors to Nusajayawill not be greeted with soaringskyscrapers and many completed

developments as when they are inJohor Baru City, for instance.

This is the reason many ofthem are more inclined to investin Johor Baru. Our challenge is toconvince and educate investorson the viability of Nusajaya as

a prime location with plenty ofpotential to be transformed intoan international metropolis, saysSoo.

He adds that it is not easyto convince foreign investors,especially those who have notheard of Iskandar.

This is where dPristine usesits trump card its exceptionallocation.

Many investors who havevisited dPristines projectsite have seen first-hand thetremendous potential it has.

We have also assured ourinvestors that once the project hasbeen completed, the managementteam will stay on to help investors,

especially our foreign investors, inmanaging their property. Initially,many investors were wary butsoon realised that we too have ahigh stake in this development.We will not be selling the lifestylemall and will instead focus on

managing it ourselves.Our main intention is to

ensure that all our units are fullyoccupied because if it is not, it willadversely affect our shopping malland also our hotel.

This is why we want to assistour investors in ensuring that wehave a healthy occupancy rateas this will add to the vibrancy,liveliness and prosperity ofdPristine, Soo says.

Long-term benefit for all

This is the first project thatinvolves many stakeholders,including those from Japan,Singapore, Taiwan, China, Indonesiaand Malaysia, making it a very high-

profile project.As a result of this, our

mission is to ensure that theproject successfully maintains itscompletion date in early 2018. Wealso want to ensure that the projectis continually sustainable so that allstakeholders will gain good returns,concludes Soo.

Many housestoday are designedaccording to themarket trends.

Trends that make a homeBY NG VEAN TAT

ARCHITECTURE is a fine mixof art and engineering.As with many art forms,

architecture is greatly influencedby trends, including that oftechnology and changing national

or cultural mindsets.It can be said that domestic

architecture has changedsignificantly in recent years, withthe advent of flat roofs, geometricshapes and large windows.This is pointedly differentfrom the pitched-roof housesthat were centrepieces of anykindergarteners drawing.

Flat roofs

Pitched roofs were thenorm typically because theywere dependable, being able towithstand different climates from drenching downpours ofthe monsoon to slow-melting

snowdrifts.These days, houses with

flat roofs are consideredarchitecturally appealing asmodern architects aim forsimplistic designs.

Houses of today are built in theshape of a cube with a flat roof soas not to have the impression ofbulk that you would get from apitched roof.

However, some people stillfavour pitched roofs because ofthe homely and traditional look itgives to a home.

Flat roofing is considered tobe more cost efficient as lessmaterials go into its construction.

A flat roof is built with two

layers. The top layer that coversthe roof is called a membrane andits job is to waterproof the roofand prevent leaking.

The roof is actually built at aslight angle to allow water to run

trendy, flat roof houses arenothing new.

Ancient Turkish stone housesin the city of Mardin dating backto 4,000 BC were all built in theshape of cubes.

In 1906, Austrian architectOtto Wagner experimented with

flat roof sections in his design forthe Austrian Postal Office SavingsBank in Vienna.

However, people stuck withpitched roofs as flat roofs werenotorious for leaking due to thepoor quality of materials andbuilding techniques back in theday.

But thanks to todaystechnology, better materials andimproved building techniques, flatroofs are back and are the rage inMalaysian housing estates as wellas architecture magazines all overthe world.

The green label

Due to global warming andthe greenhouse effect, architectsare finding ways of reducingthe environmental impacts ofconstruction.

This is done by constructingsustainable buildings, alsoknown as green buildings, whichreduce the usage of materialsand resources such as waterand energy while limiting theproduction of waste.

Home owners can play theirpart by adding green roofs to theirhomes. Green roofing is achievedby growing vegetation along withgrowing a medium over a roofswaterproof membrane.

The vegetation absorbs rain

water, prevents leaking and lowersthe temperature of the houseby absorbing heat from the sunduring the day. It then providesinsulation, releasing the collectedheat into the house during the

Prefab homes

Prefabricated homes, oftenreferred to as prefab homes, arebecoming a trend even thoughthey have had a bad reputation ofbeing of lower quality comparedto traditionally built houses.

Because of modern-daytechnology, prefab homes are builtwith both quality and quantity.

Prefab homes are manufacturedoff-site, typically in a factory andlater assembled on site. Parts ofthe house such as the walls aremanufactured in a factory andshipped to the building site forassembly.

Since 70% of the house can bebuilt indoors, workers do not haveto endure intense climates andweather changes.

Prefab homes can be massproduced and require lessmanpower to assemble. Becauseof that, prefab homes are moreaffordable than a traditionally

built house. You can even designyour own prefab house to make itstand out.

Passive houses

Another housing trend thathas appeared as a result of globalwarming and the greenhouseeffect are passive houses. Apassive house, or PassivhausinGerman, is an ultra-low energybuilding that requires little energyto heat or cool.

Passive houses employ theconcept of superinsulation,which was realised by professorsBo Adamson of Sweden andWoflgang Feist of Germany,

who built the first Passivhausin 1990. Dr Feist later found thePassivhaus Institut (PHI) in 1996 inDramstadt, Germany.

The idea of superinsulationwas the result of a response that

of insulation than of a standardhouse, which in turn reduces thecosts of heating.

Passive houses are built tobe virtually airtight to preventheat loss. The building is heatedprimarily from passive solar gainsand internal gains from people

and electrical equipment.Air ventilation equipment is

installed to prevent overheating.Superventilation greatly reducesheat transfer through surfacesaround the house such as walls,roof and floor.

According to reports in 2007by the Energy InformationAdministration (EIA), Americansused a whopping 936 kilowatt-hours of electricity in a month,and in Malaysia, 251 kilowatts-hours per household is used in amonth.

Although energy consumptionin Malaysia is significantly lowercompared to the United States,it can still be lowered to reduce

energy usage for betterment of theenvironment.

Compact living

Compact living encouragesthe maximum utilisation ofspace with clever planning andtransformable furniture.More and more interior designersand furniture makers are creatingfurniture with multiple uses,whether it is movable walls orbeds that double up as sofas.

The Internet is chock-a-blockwith ideas and designs thatoptimise space, making this atrend that is gaining momentum,especially with the younger

generation who can only affordsmaller living spaces.

With the current worldpopulation of seven-odd billionthat is expected to reach between8.3bil and 10.9bil in 2050, living

Growingfood inyour ownbalconyAS urbanites, living in apartmentsand condominiums limit us fromgetting in touch with nature. Weare forced to buy and consumefoods that come from unknownsources.

It is hard enough to keep upwith the pace of city life let alonethink about where our food comesfrom. But we can always changethat by growing our own food.

Balcony gardening andcontainer gardening is a formof small-space gardening. Youutilise the limited amount ofspace available on the balcony andwindow sills to make your gardenand grow vegetables, fruits andherbs all year long.

There are many reasons whyyou should grow your own food.The first is because you cancontrol where your food comesfrom and ensure that it containsno toxic substances.

The second reason is thatbalcony gardening and containergardening is not just a hobby, it isalso a healthy way of life.

Finally, you can save moneyon groceries and just obtainvegetables from your gardeninstead of having to travel to a

grocery store.Just like any other type of

gardening, balcony gardeningand container gardening requirespatience and dedication.

Oftentimes, people give upwhen their garden fails at theirfirst try, but with proper planning,they can create a beautiful, self-sustainable garden.

How to start

To build your own balconygarden and container garden,begin by measuring the amountof space you have on your balconyand window sills.

Allocate enough space

depending on the size of plantsyou plan on growing and howmany pots you are planning touse.

Next, design your gardenlayout. Place your plants in placeswhere they can get the mostsunlight.

Designing yourgarden

Try to make use of the spaceyou have as efficiently as possible.Start by sketching out your planand decide on how you want toplace your pots.

You can save floor space byutilising vertical space such as

placing hanging baskets wherepossible or attaching pockets toa wall to plant herbs and othersmall plants.

Using tiered stands allow youto display plants in rows above
