LIFE AHEAD of the CURVE Welcome to the Corniche ALBERT EMBANKMENT LIFE AHEAD OF THE CURVE WelcomE to THE CORnICHE From an exclusive address on the south side of the River Thames, The Corniche offers a rare window into one of the most cosmopolitan capitals in the world. Panoramic views over the most important stretch of the river take in every silhouette of the London skyline, from the magnificent Houses of Parliament to the round pods of the London Eye. Below, a slender path winds towards the South Bank, London's world famous riverside ribbon of art and culture. The Corniche is a new landmark on the River Thames – a building to look at and look out from, a sea of curves that mirror those of the river below. World-renowned architectural practice Foster + Partners brings a genuinely global perspective to The Corniche, and the resulting design presents a bold and confident vision of the future. Interior design flows seamlessly from the exterior, converting the building’s elliptical character into curved forms and uninterrupted floor-to-ceiling glazing. Texture, grandeur and space define the interior, which marries art deco heritage with a distinctly modern sensibility. The colour palette is refined, the mood uplifting. The Corniche celebrates ease and recreation with a wealth of luxury amenities, including an infinity pool, spa, private screening room and club lounge with terrace. In so doing, it offers the chance to experience luxury at its best, giving a welcome preview of life ahead of the curve. 01 THE mOST FAmOUS CURVE On THE RIVER From its central location on the Albert Embankment, The Corniche is perfectly placed to capture the unique beauty and personality of the London metropolis. Extraordinary views stretch from across the Thames to the Houses of Parliament in one direction and to the pods of the London Eye in the other. Beyond lies the South Bank and the financial districts of Canary Wharf and the City.

There is nowhere better to enjoy panoramic views of the capital than inside its elegantly curved apartments, which express a romantic narrative of free-flowing design. MIDDAY PAnORAmIC gLAzIng Traditional window designs, with their flat profile, make it hard to enjoy a whole vista without being close to the glass. In contrast, the curved shape of the bays at The Corniche give a three-dimensional frame that enhances the "cinematic" quality of the views from within. balconIES In a traditional apartment, the only way to fully enjoy the view is to stand out on the balcony, otherwise hand rails, window frames and balustrades can all but obscure too much of it. In response to this, at The Corniche, the window sill and balcony balustrade are set at a horizontal datum which allows views from within the apartment when seated. By splitting the balustrade into two sections, the lower solid section provides a degree of protection and privacy whilst the glazed top section allows unobstructed views.
