All units have been designed
with the co-living concept front
of mind, as explained by Flyt’s
managing director Zane De Decker.
“Over the last two years we have
researched
worldwide
trends,
worked extensively with property
professionals and consulted the
best, most forward-thinking minds
in the business to truly trail blaze
a new take on the modern-living
concept. We want our residents to
have the option of arriving with a
suitcase and literally plugging in.”
