The prices of the available units range from $2,619,980 to $2,979,980.

This residential offering at Oakridge is a 17-storey tower with interiors designed by Clemande Burgevin Blachman. It is the first project by Westbank to include fully furnished homes, with furniture and accessories handpicked by the designer.

The design principles behind this project are based on six important values: Generosity, Integrity, Originality, Independence, Simplicity, and Freedom. The aim is to create a perfect home that reflects these principles and caters to the needs and preferences of the residents.

Clémande, the designer behind the project, draws inspiration from her unique upbringing. Having grown up in various places and experiencing different cultures, her sense of beauty, design, and style is influenced by a combination of nonchalance, bohemian flair, and elegant simplicity. With a background in literature and a successful design gallery, Clémande brings a fresh and original perspective to the project.

The overall design philosophy is focused on creating beautiful homes that provide comfort, joy, and a sense of freedom. The attention to detail, choice of materials, and respect for tradition and history make Oakridge x Clémande a unique community.
