Located in the Mermaid Beach precinct, this development boasts a prime location with direct access to the beach, as well as convenient proximity to shops, cafes, and restaurants.

Featuring boutique residential apartments, this project adopts a unique layout with two apartments on each floor and a penthouse crowning the top level. Tailored to accommodate downsizers and families, these spacious apartments maximise natural light and ventilation through the building's perimeter. Each unit includes a sizable east-facing balcony, essentially functioning as an outdoor room.

The penthouse on the highest floor boasts exclusive access to a generous private roof terrace, promoting an outdoor lifestyle for its residents.

The building's exterior showcases a well-thought-out design, combining horizontal and vertical architectural elements such as spandrels, screens, and planters.

Strategic placement of large screens on the northern and southern facades not only ensures sun-shading and privacy but also introduces dynamic elements, allowing occupants to personalise their living spaces and contribute to an engaging facade pattern.

The roof design aims to evoke a sense of lightness, elegantly framing the building's crown.
