Leeds’ leading property group, Parklane Properties, who opened the doors to Leeds’ most luxurious student accommodation brand IconInc this year, has been awarded a prestigious Northern Design Award for the Interior Design Concept.

Its first development, The Edge, valued at £15 million, hit the national headlines for offering ‘7 star student accommodation’. The phrase was coined by The Daily Mail, Telegraph, Independent, London Evening Standard and numerous industry and regional press outlets.

The judges were impressed with the bespoke interiors that allowed the space to be maximised and entirely fit for purpose. It’s striking wall graphics, slick design and bespoke furniture and fittings have led to a unique design rewarded with this respected industry recognition.

IconInc’s The Edge has 131 apartments in three sizes; Smart, Elegance and Grande, the highest-spec Grande apartment having the option for couples to rent. The luxury apartments boast all-inclusive bills, superfast 100MB broadband, flat screen TVs and king size beds.

The Edge will pave the way for more IconInc developments in Leeds and nationwide, all to include unrivalled facilities; on-site cinema, games room, gym with personal trainers, study rooms and complimentary daily breakfast to name a few.

Nav Ahmed, Managing Director of Parklane Properties said; “We’re absolutely thrilled to pick up this award, something the team deserves for their efforts in creating our unique build. IconInc redefines what it means to ‘live like a student’ and promotes ‘living like an icon’ and we worked tirelessly to get this across with our design.”
