Catalonian comfort in Warsaw

Restaura is set to commence work on a new residential project, Restaura Górskiego. Construction on the exclusive apartment building is to start in June, and the sale of its 109 units should begin the following month. Restaura Górskiego is scheduled for completion in December 2008.

Located at ul. Górskiego 6, in the center of Warsaw, Restaura Górskiego aims to provide luxurious apartments in a refurbished pre-war building. The building has eight floors above ground with two underground parking levels - and comprises a total living space of 8,200 sqm.

Apartments will range in size from 50-166 sqm and all will have a balcony or loggia, with units above the fourth floor boasting terraces. Although final prices will not be revealed until sales begin, the price-per-sqm will not be less than zł.20,000. Among the project's distinguishing elements are 2.4-meter windows, wider-than-standard doors and a 24-hour reception area. PRC Architekci designed the apartment building.

"The building's motifs, inspired by the creativity of Joan Miró, will recall its owner's Catalonian origins. Delicately pronounced in the internal décor, these motifs will give the building a refined yet resolute character," said Paweł Augustyn, Restaura's managing director Poland.

Knight Frank is responsible for apartment reservations and sales, while Raiffeisen Bank is Restaura's investment partner in the project has earmarked around R100 (zł.382) million for investments in Poland this year and is working on several other projects.
