Arte, Shah Alam

Arte (also known as Arte @ Subang West) is sited in Shah Alam and is one of the monolithic structures which really stand out without the need to have a flashy façade. It is the latest architecture that will not go unnoticed as, located parallel to the Federal Highway, its uniquely modern look will definitely get heads to turn.

Arte is developed by Nusmetro Land, a Penang-based developer, and it is a name that is synonymous with a commitment to excellence and quality. Over the years, Nusmetro has developed many quality properties worth more than RM1 billion, with a range from commercial to residential. Most of the development schemes are mainly situated in the states of Selangor, Penang and Sabah. Keeping abreast with the economy, Nusmetro has recently ventured into new developments.

This iconic development, which is within proximity to the heart of Subang and Glenmarie, is segmented into four distinct zones where each one showcases an unrivalled cosmopolitan splendour within an architectural masterpiece. First off, there is the Architecture Zone where there is an organic-inspired designer façade and structures including an impressive statement entrance and a hotel lobby concept.

The three-level Chill Zone is an architectural masterpiece featuring an iconic glass cube lounge that is furnished with “Vondom” lighted furniture pieces from the collection of renowned designer Karim Rashid whereas the Aqua Zone provides a rejuvenating respite to reshape the way one lives, replete with water-themed facilities encompassing a Jacuzzi, a barbecue area, a fully equipped aqua gym and a colours-inspired infinity pool. Meanwhile, the final zone is known as the Space Zone, where residents are able to experience the ultimate duplex living as there are various generously designed layouts to choose from that incorporates natural light into the units. Other Mix Developments in Shah Alam include V Residensi 2, and  V12 Sovo.

Educationally, the area of Shah Alam offers an abundance of tertiary institutional choices, such as Universiti Teknologi MARA, Management and Science University or MSU and Politeknik Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah. There are also plenty of primary and secondary schools to choose from. In terms of medical centres, there is the Columbia Asia Medical Centre and the Shah Alam Community Polyclinic. Arte is also considered one of the best luxury condos in Shah Alam.

For Muslim residents who wish to fulfil their religious duties, there is the Masjid Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah or also known as the Blue Mosque. There are also many malls to cater to the retail therapy needed by residents, namely the SACC, Anggerik and the Plaza Alam Sentral, among others. Necessity shopping is provided by Tesco and Giant.

Analysis

For discerning buyers who are looking to purchase their first piece of property or something that can be used for future investment purposes, one can surely consider Arte @ Subang West as one of the choices. This is due to the fact that this work of art is a lifestyle-oriented residential project, where a healthy balance of Live, Work and Play is encouraged.

Interesting elements with an artistic feel are cleverly worked in to the entire development, from the imposing exterior facade to the elegantly simplistic units and finally the uniquely modern facilities that are available. The developer’s aim of introducing this luxurious one-of-a-kind innovative concept is to pave the way for new depths of “modus vivendi” living for a new generation.

One of the most prominent features of Arte is the three-level lounge that is in the striking form of a glass cube that will be built with the sole purpose of providing what has been dubbed as a “Chill Zone” for residents and their guests alike. The structure will be clearly visible from the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) and the Federal Highway, thereby allowing for passers-by to marvel at the spectacularly sparkling cube that seems to be suspended in mid-air.

At any one time, the entire Zone will be able to accommodate up to 80 people. Another noteworthy feature is the Aqua Zone where the graceful fluidity of water that is fused into each facility available here will be sure to soothe and rejuvenate the senses. Residents will be able to relax and unwind in the Jacuzzi or bask in the sunlight by the infinity pool. There is also the fully-equipped aqua gym where one can visit for daily work-outs or just to limber up.
