From Monaco to Manhattan, penthouses are the crown jewels of any high-rise development, not only because they sit elegantly on the topmost floor and enjoy spectacular 360-degree views of the city.
These luxurious apartments, with their full-length windows and high ceilings, come complete with superior-quality fittings and refined finishes, adding to their high value and appeal. On top of that, the scarcity of such apartments in any city makes the penthouse a much coveted property in any development. Add super penthouses to the mix and the appeal is only magnified, with the likes of multi-millionaires and billionaires happily forking out hundreds of millions of dollars for that gem in the sky.
But where did this whole idea of a penthouse begin?
Derived from the Hindi word banglã, the word ‘bungalow’ came into use in the English language in the late 17th century. Back in the day, bungalows more aptly referred to the quaint cottages that were built in early European colonial settlements in Bengal. Traditionally a one-story house with a low-pitched roof and a front porch, the humble bungalow has come a long way since then, thanks to advances in technology and architectural ingenuity.
Today, it is the very epitome of sophisticated living and prestige, to the extent where entire residences have become fully equipped with smart technology, so that every aspect of the house’s function, from climate control to entertainment, can be accessed and adjusted with the touch of a button.
