Space to live, work and relax

Issigonis is as much about living as working. With a harmonious balance of work and living space, it’s possible to separate business and home life whilst retaining the freedom to move between the two. Careful design has maximised the use of space. Full-height glazing means that both live and work spaces are flooded with natural light. Three courtyard gardens provide an attractive outlook and an ‘oasis’ in which to relax. Balconies and terraces to some apartments are perfect places to enjoy lunch or a drink after work in the warmer months.
