100 Residences by Ateliers Jean Nouvel

Every apartment at 100 Residences by Ateliers Jean Nouvel features floor-to-ceiling window walls, including operable windows, oriented to the south and west. Floors are finished with an extra layer  of nearly imperceptible transparent gloss, to boost incoming sunlight into rooms.

Every apartment at 100 11^th has a unique patter of powder-coated steel window mullions- it’s unique ‘fingerprint’. These mullions frame specific views. Open, curve or rectilinear spaces have been allocated to allow for a broad variety of furniture configurations that take full advantage of the light and views.

Kitchen flow spatially into open living room areas and feature custom fixes conceive by Jean Nouvel to achieve the highest level of discretion and design excellence to complement art and furniture. These generously proportioned environments are composed of stainless steel, etched and clear glass, terrazzo and custom lighting.

Jean Nouvel “total design” approach is exemplified by his use of highly engineered bath fixtures conceived by the architect for Jado. The sleek touch-sensitive fixtures include computerized water flow and temperature sensors,  and are complemented by glass, mirror, and Corian surfaces, minimalist Kholer tubs and water closets, and indigenous storage solutions.

The lobby  is a dramatic  transitional  zone between  the public  life of the street outside and  the privacy of individual homes in the tower above. Soft controlled lighting and dark monochromatic walls will create a theatrical but peaceful atmosphere that contrasts with the reflection and animation of the building’s exterior. Enormous  punched  windows provide views  of the building’s tree-filled green.

Within the loggia levels, a framework of glass, steel, and concrete, a six-story vertical hanging  garden blooms. From planting boxes built into the structure, trees soar upward and plants cascade down  the walls, lending  their scent to the atmosphere.
