The word Artesia describes a spring of free-flowing water under natural pressure. Aptly named, Qualex-Landmark’s™ Artesia is a meticulously-curated vision inspired by earth, water and sky - a 31-storey effortless and understated sense of classic modern elegance.
Conceived by award-winning RWA Architecture, the West Coast style is taken to new heights with the Grand Lobby’s soaring triple-height glazing overlooking the courtyard and reflecting pool, welcoming residents into serene amenity spaces.
“We designed Artesia to invite the environment into the building as much as possible — in contrast to the conventional view of bustling Metrotown, this building was designed to take advantage of its quieter location,” says Bob Worden, RWA Group Architecture.
Artesia is a finely crafted collection of 247 one to three-bedroom residences, ranging from 500 to 925 square feet, with cascading glass balconies.
“We are in a fortunate situation in that we still have a great selection of residences from the midway tower all the way to the top level,” says Jordan Beach, VP of Marketing and Sales, Qualex-Landmark™. “Buyers love the tranquillity of this quiet side of Metrotown and the expansive views available from as low as level 5, making Artesia truly unique.
Thoughtfully curated by award-winning BYU Design, each home takes advantage of natural light from the expansive windows. Residences feature durable wood laminate flooring, custom Italian cabinetry and ample storage. Healthy living is evident throughout, with air-filtered heating and cooling fan coil system, and heat recovery ventilator (HRV) for fresh air circulation.
You will love cooking in the gourmet kitchens, which present contemporary two-tone cabinetry, Quartz countertops and backsplash, island with lots of storage and open shelving, and Fisher & Paykel premium appliances package.
Master bathrooms will entice and delight you with custom Italian floating vanities, heated towel rack, soaker tub with hand shower, Quartz countertops and backsplash, and porcelain flooring and wall tile.
But where Artesia really shines through is Qualex-Landmark’s™ dedication to fostering a true sense of community. Outdoor amenities, set within a landscaped courtyard, feature a games area, including foosball and ping pong table, as well as a hot tub, barbecue, fireplace and kitchen area.
The indoor amenities will start with the concierge desk in the three-storey lobby, accentuated by sculptured columns, rammed-earth wall, and porcelain tiles that resemble stones. Curves, textures and ripple effects, and twinkling lights, further evoke the water theme.
Residents at Artesia will be able to amuse themselves with a variety of options, including a soundproof music/party room with a baby grand piano. There’s also a children’s playroom, gym/yoga studio, sauna and steam room.
To round out the spectacular amenities is a business lounge on the 27th floor complete with work tables, a kitchenette and an outdoor deck with a telescope.
