601 1568 Alberni Street, Vancouver

Designed by world-renowned Japanese architect Kengo Kuma and developed by Westbank, Alberni by Kengo Kuma is an iconic 43-storey tower offers a rare balance of artistic vision and modern luxury. The arrival experience (visible in the photos) features a sleek wood-and-glass lobby with a minimalist reception desk, glass partitions and warm wood flooring that set the tone for the building’s refined material palette. This spacious 874 sqft studio residence offers a rare open layout, blending elegance and function — with floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glass doors to a private balcony that bring in abundant light and provide city/green views, warm wide-plank hardwood floors, integrated wood-slat ceiling details, and a built-in wood media console that complements the custom millwork. The interiors are defined by custom hand-carved millwork, premium Miele appliances, quartz countertops and a European limestone-clad bathroom that evokes a spa-like retreat (shown with a glass-enclosed shower, bench, overhead rain-shower and wood-accented ceiling). Residents enjoy exclusive access to world-class amenities, including a 25-meter heated indoor pool, sauna, wine room, listening/music room with curated shelving and a relaxed lounge, and a state-of-the-art two-level gym equipped with cardio and strength machines. Perfectly located in Coal Harbour, you´re just steps from the Seawall, Stanley Park, Robson Street´s restaurants, shopping, and entertainment. (id:1945)
