The Modern Tuscany Lifestyle
Situated on elevated ground and capitalizing on its undulating terrain, View at Kismis will emulate the Tuscan wine valleys with six residential blocks lined in two staggered parallel blocks.
As an added effect of the staggered blocks, the communal facilities along the ‘Central Valley’ will be revealed one by one as residents progress through the valley, providing a different perspective at every turn.

To resemble cascading streams, the ‘Central Valley’ will include water features such as a 25-metre lap pool, spa cove, sanctuary stream, family pool and jet pool, split across different levels.
The residential blocks on both sides are also tilted slightly to allow a north-south orientation, avoiding the rising and setting sun, while capitalizing on the wind direction to facilitate cross ventilation for the central communal area.
View at Kismis takes the opportunity to feature communal facilities at the roof terrace, which complements the picturesque landscape of the ‘Central Valley’ to provide lifestyle options with a magnificent view for residents to enjoy.
Facilities at the roof terrace include sheltered pavilions on all six blocks with water features such as a champagne wet deck with partially submerged seating and bubble pool.
Mr Chan Sze Chin, Director at JGP Architecture said, “Good architecture reflects the true essence of a site while evoking a level of finesse and class. At View at Kismis, a rustic color palette with full height curtain wall windows achieve harmony of modern classical architecture.
