Vision. Innovation. Integrity. These are the qualities that distinguish Davies Smith Developments. And it is these same qualities that are reflected so clearly in the company’s magnificent new master-planned community at Mississauga City Center.

Its first tower, CityGate, was recognized with the Ontario Home Builders Association award for Project of the Year (high-rise), the Grand SAM award for best Project in Canada and an Urban Design Award of Excellence. It was followed by CityGate II and then by Solstice which went on to win the 2005 OHBA Project of the Year and Attached Community of the Year from the National Association of Home Builders.

Now the fourth and final tower is being unveiled. The crowning touch that will complete this unique urban village. And it promises to be the hippest, most contemporary high-rise address of them all.

 

Onyx Is The New Black

Fashions change but “classic black” never goes out of style. And that same quintessential look now sets the tone at Mississauga City Center for a lifestyle of timeless appeal.

Here ONYX offers a superb selection of lofts and condos, blended throughout a sleek 35-storey high-rise of shimmering glass and steel. With a chic black & white color palette that is showcased through out its interior.

Conceived with passion. Designed with flair. Crafted with precision.

 

ONYX. Make It Your Color Today.

Loft living isn’t just about old rundown warehouses. Designers have put a brand new spin on lofts. And they’ve evolved to better suit the needs of today’s new home buyer.

Because the pleasure of a loft is not that it’s old… It’s that it’s open. Open to all life’s possibilities. Ceilings high enough to put your head in the clouds. Windows wide enough to watch the world go by.

ONYX takes loft living to new heights. Here, the two-storey lofts run the entire length of the building’s north face to the 34th floor, distributing their unique style top to bottom.

 

Start By Shedding Your Preconceptions

Compared to other builders, compared to other designs, compared to other locations, the difference is black and white.

ONYX’s lobby welcomes you into a spectacular two-storey reception area, a grand lobby comfortably furnished with a backlit onyx feature wall, polished granite floors and floor-to-ceiling windows. In this elegantly modern space, a 24-hour concierge cordially greets you and your guests, dedicated to your security and peace of mind.

Four high-speed elevators are available to whisk you to your floor. A private lounge and meeting room are natural extensions of the lobby, allowing you to accommodate both your personal guests and business associates.

 

Stratus Takes Lounging To New Heights

Socializing with your friends is given a whole new dimension at ONYX. After you wow them with a view from the rooftop terrace, step inside Stratus and usher them into your own personal lounge/party room.

Once there, you can indulge in the true art of meeting and greeting in a distinctive, nightclub setting. Grab a cue for a game of pool. Prepare some hors d’oeuvres in the kitchen studio. Catch the game on the big screen TV. And bring along your laptop if you’d like since the whole area is WiFi Internet-equipped.

 

The View At The Top

The views from Stratus’ indoor lounge are nothing short of phenomenal. But step outside into the outdoor terrace courtyard to truly appreciate ONYX’s incredible city vistas, whether the sun is high in the sky or the moon is out and the skyline aglow with what seems a million lights.

Like a sculpture garden or an outdoor art gallery, and appointed with private conversation area, the terrace is elegantly cool and contemporary – with a sleek water feature that could come straight from the pages of Architectural Digest. And whether savoring a quiet moment alone or sharing the laughter of friends, Stratus is a place you’ll find yourself coming back to time and time again.

 

Embrace The Natural Healing Properties Of The Onyx Lifestyle

Who needs to be the member of a private gym anyway?

Not you…not when over 30,000 square feet of recreational amenities and more are yours at ONYX.

Whatever your favorite pastimes and preferences, ONYX will indulge and inspire you to lead a balanced life, enjoying all those things that matter the most.

Keep your body trim… and your mind clear. It’s easy to do in ONYX’s professionally equipped exercise room.

Tone up on the treadmills. Elliptical cross trainer and upper body trainers. Recumbent cycles. Strength trainers. A power crunch unit for abdominals. An incline heavy lifting bench. Free weights and a rack designed for cross-training.

Adjacent to the lounge, steam room and saunas is a private Pilates/yoga studio. The ideal place in which to stretch those muscles and get in the mood for a little meditation.

An Activities Director will plan a full program of health, fitness and recreation programs specially tailored for ONYX residents, from aquafitness classes to Pilates.

ONYX’s social and fitness facilities are amazing. With a fabulous year-round swimming pool and sundeck with lounge pods. A large and luxurious outdoor hottub. A large and well-equipped exercise room. And a beautifully landscaped outdoor courtyard with a sunny patio, shady retreat and children’s quiet play area.

Looking to simply relax and revitalize? In addition to the hot tub, you can also choose the cedar sauna or the ceramic-tiled steam room. And when you’re done, simply head to the men’s and women’s change rooms, featuring lockers and private showers.

In addition, there are also two fully furnished guest suites where your overnight visitors can be elegantly and conveniently accommodated.

 

Lofts + Condos

Davies Smith Developments has left no detail overlooked in the creation of ONYX’s wide array of condominiums, ranging from studios to two bedroom and dens, and all with private balconies offering fabulous views of the city.

Elegant nine foot ceilings in main living areas impart a sense of openness throughout each suite, while the loftiness of ten foot ceilings can be enjoyed by those owning penthouse suites on the 34th floor.

For those seeking the openness of loft living, ONYX also satisfies with a selection of loft residences accommodated throughout the tower, with ceilings up to 18 feet. And like the condominium suites, each loft offers its own inner beauty – extending and flowing from room to room, creating an open concept living space ideal for entertaining.

Kitchens at ONYX are an epicurean delight with a choice of designer-selected, European-styled cabinetry. A choice of porcelain or ceramic floor tiles, and a ceramic backsplash to add a distinctive accent to you kitchen décor. Plus a black or white kitchen appliance package.

Bathrooms at ONYX have there own private, personal spa-like ambiance, with a choice of vanity styles and ceramic tiles. Masters feature your choice of either a deep soaker tub or a separate stand-up shower while pedestal sinks provide an elegant focal point in powder rooms.

Gleaming engineered hardwood flooring will enhance the beauty of the living room, dining room and den.

 

ONYX Is All About Healthy Living.

So Davies Smith Developments designed a building that provides residents with superior air quality and a more comfortable living environment. Plus beneficial conservation, energy efficiency and recycling measures that not only help you save money but save the planet too.
All interior suite carpeting (loop weave) is tested by The Carpet Institute for low levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to ensure that emissions are minimal.
Indoor air quality is optimized through direct venting to the outside via kitchen hood, bathroom fans and dryer exhaust.
Individual suite electrical metering allows for individual energy management and reduced living costs.
Low-flow chrome bath and shower faucets, plus low-flow single lever sink faucets, promote water conservation.
Most paint coatings are also tested for low levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), again to ensure emission standards are not exceeded.
Energy efficiency in enhanced through the use of thermal window systems with double-glazed, low-Emissivity (Low-E) glass. In the winter this system allows indoor heat energy to reflect back into the home and in summer, outdoor heat energy is reflected back outside.
Designated light fixtures are energy efficient.
Most appliances are rated “Energy Star” compliant for energy-efficiency.
Environmentally friendly grass roofs will reduce the urban heat island effect and thus reduce cooling costs while being visually pleasing at the same time.
Recycling facilities for sorting recyclable waste will help residents participate in the City of Mississauga’s waste reduction efforts.
Convenient bicycle parking area to promote alternative transportation and reduce use of fossil fuels.
Storm water management system will reduce water flows to predevelopment levels, therefore reducing water flows into municipal infrastructure.
The 270 ton “chiller”, which cools the building in the summer, uses environmentally friendly Freon gas.
