25.01.2022 Sweeping water views and access to the very best of the Hope Island lifestyle.

25.01.2022 The team on the Anchorage Apartments project are full steam ahead on Building 4.

24.01.2022 There is a masterplan of exploration and deliberations being undertaken at Victoria Square. The proposed refurbishment of the podium and tower facades is just one of these. With the existing facades scutinized and evaluated, a number of prominent architectural elements were identified. These being the podium black glazed cubes and white concrete banding to the tower at each level. They became the key constituents to rationalise and provide cohesion to the overall architectur...al expression. Other pressing issues raised included an entrance statement to the tower, particularly for visitor idetification. An enclosure of the plaza would also be valued for usable space. Three schemes were prepared, each acquired from the mall, the tower banding and the podium cubic forms. Each scheme to start the journey and raise discussion by the Body Corporate and residents to assist in formulating the brief and future aspirations. Scheme one is the combination of a cube and twisted horizontal banding. The reds and hues thereof completing the primary colour palette of the mall. With the yellow Air tower to the east, the blues of the Oasis Shopping Centre and now the red to the south of Victoria Square. This is also symbolic to Chinese culture and good fortune. Scheme two is the image pixel option, amplified and projected. Interactive and static art installations, community displays and advertising panels provide an enticing balanced visual display into the Australian environment, art and culture. Not quite times Square. Scheme three is a complete cubic vortex that extends into the pedestrian mall paved surface to darw on the patrons attention and movement towards and into the plaza domain and it's activities See more

18.01.2022 Pearl Street, Kingscliff, NSW. Development Approval in progress. A wedged shape site with the shortest boundary fronting the street. With site access at a premium along the boundary line, both pedestrian and vehicular, the built form challenges this for streetscape presence. Characteristic features from the local area have been infused into the architectural vocabulary. The simple clean lines, prominant forms with large openings to capture those pleasant ocean breezes. This provides for a contemporary, sophisticated, and voguish seaside aesthetic that is a reoccuring theme along Pearl / Kingscliff Street and Marine Parade. The apartments are spacious, light and airy, customarily destinctive to todays beachside living. http://www.forgansmith.com.au/architecture

07.01.2022 Parkwood Aged Care, Queensland. Development Approval in progress. The site is central to, and on the boundaries of, the residential populations of Parkwood and Arundel. Visitor and resident access is controlled for the safety and security of the occupants. The distinctive central form is the building entrance which has a welcoming cafe and beauty salon at the threshold to a two storey volume which then leeds onto the reception.The heart and focus of the scheme is the connecti...vity with the courtyards and open spaces. They are places that bring people together, either professionally or socially, or as places for solefull rejuvenation. Either way they bring residents and affiliates in contact with the fresh air and sunlight, stimulating the senses. As therapeutic landscapes to inspire an entourage of activities, be they active or passive, that enhance the health, safety, and welfare of the people that use them. An aged care facility within a residential location is part of the fabric that defines community and maintains proximity and convenience to family and acquaintances. http://www.forgansmith.com.au/architecture See more
