Brisbane-based, Tallis Property Group has marked themselves as an evolving, fast growing, dynamic property investment and property development company.

Since their inception, the group has strung together a rather impressive portfolio, paying particular attention to the greater Brisbane region. &nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=204009]

Akin is Tallis’ first South Brisbane project, with the group having already made a name for themselves in Indooroopilly with Grace and Oppo, along with projects’, Mare in Rose Bay, Kurilpa in West End, Ilmondo in Kangaroo Point, Vision in Upper Mt Gravet and Clinque in Gordon.

Positioned to take in all the burgeoning South Bank area has to offer, Akin delivers a collection of one, two, three, and four-bedroom apartments, along with a selection of sub penthouses and penthouses, boasting world-class design with intuitively integrated smart home functionality.

Soaring 30-storeys above one of Brisbane’s most sought-after precincts, the Merivale Street site straddles the edge of West End and South Bank, with Tallis Property Group&nbsp;saying there are many different aspects that set it apart from other Brisbane developments.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185114]

“Located in one of Brisbane’s most convenient and culturally diverse neighbourhoods, Akin introduces elevated apartment living to the ever-evolving Southbank precinct. With its convenience and carefully considered, future-forward design, Akin creates a seamless lifestyle for its residents,” the team said.&nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
For example, each residence at Akin can be linked to an optional private central hub, allowing residents to customise, personalise and coordinate their home from their choice of device.

Through use of number plate recognition technology, residents will enjoy seamless access to the car park, while keys become a thing of the past, with facial recognition to access the lobby, along with passcode entry providing seamless access to each apartment.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=203985] 
&nbsp; 
Customisations aren’t only included in the technological aspect at Akin.

Residents have the option to modify their homes to their liking, with many upgrade packages available.&nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
Akin also offers up a wide variety of options surrounding its resident’s wellbeing, boasting a huge health offering, including a gym, which is home to the latest world-class techno-gym equipment, along with a yoga facility, complete with mats and bolsters, a 22-metre resort pool, heated spa, and a steam room and sauna. &nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
Akin is also home to a cinema room, a business hub, as well as a wine cellar and a private dining room which can seat up to 40 guests. &nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=203986]&nbsp;

Tallis purchased the site for Akin back in 2014, with the group recognising the potential of the burgeoning area long before the renaissance started.&nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
“As South Brisbane was a desired area, the site has a lot to offer with everything being very accessible, via walking or a short drive.”&nbsp;

Owner-occupiers have flocked to the project, with a number of families, downsizers and young professionals taking up stock.&nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
Only a number of three and four-bedroom apartments remain in the $180 million South Brisbane development, which is slated for completion by 2023.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=205307]

Tallis has a number of projects in the pipeline, with a house and land development planned for Upper Coomera along with a build-to-rent development in Indooroopilly.&nbsp;

The group is also adding to its New South Wales portfolio with two residential developments planned for south of the border, with a&nbsp;collection of luxury apartments set for the exclusive eastern suburbs pocket of Rosebay, as well as an apartment development penned for the upper north shore in Roseville.

The design flexibility, in addition to the central location, drew in many owner-occupier buyers who could see the uniqueness of this project. Even though 90% of the project has now sold, there are still a variety of floorplans available, and at this stage in construction, some customisation options may still be available upon request.&nbsp;

Architect, DBI has thoughtfully designed homes with a future focus, including number plate recognition in the secure carparks, as well as face recognition access and full home automation provisions.&nbsp;

It's clear liveability has been held at the forefront of design, with a full suite of wellness amenities available to residents. You'll also have the freedom to work from home, either in your home office or at Akin's dedicated business centre.&nbsp;

For your weekend entertainment and socialising, a recreation deck will crown the development, offering barbeque facilities and some of the most breathtaking views of the Brisbane skyline.

Display Tour Video: Akin by Tallis Property Group at 35-39 Merivale Street, South Brisbane, QLD

Akin, the newest apartment project from the Brisbane developer Tallis Property Group, has been strategically located to take advantage of all the burgeoning South Bank has to offer.

The Merivale Street tower is just around the corner from Fish Lane, the recently developed&nbsp;laneway-style town square,&nbsp;which is the hub of Brisbane's art, culture and entertainment scene. At Fish Lane there's&nbsp;16 restaurants, 11 bars and six cafés, including Julius Pizzeria, Gauge, Hello Please, Maeve and Maker.

Akin has been built within a cultural precinct, becoming a neighbour to a hub of galleries and performance spaces, including the Gallery of Modern Art, Queensland Museum, Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre and the Queensland Theatre.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185113]

The 30-level tower, designed by DBI,&nbsp;sits near Musgrave Park and Park Avenue at South Bank, as well as Brisbane Streets Beach and Queens Gardens.

Brisbane State High School and West End State School are in the area, with TAFE Queensland just down the road.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185114]

With the area under development across a range of areas, South Brisbane&nbsp;will continue to see growth in the years to come.

Construction is currently under way on a number of projects including the Queen’s Wharf Brisbane, Neville Bonner Bridge and New Performing Arts Venue (NPAV), which will all be well-connected with the developing Brisbane Metro.&nbsp;

Queen’s Wharf Brisbane is a $3.8 billion integrated resort development that will put Brisbane firmly on the map as a global tourism, leisure and entertainment destination.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=192735]

Spanning more than 270 meters across the Brisbane River, The Neville Bonner Bridge will be an important&nbsp;link between South Bank and the Queen’s Wharf precinct.

New Performing Arts Venue is a $150 million theatre which will amplify the thriving performing arts precinct in South Brisbane.

Akin, which has just released its collection of sky homes, has a number of five-star amenities, such as the resident’s lobby, business hub, rooftop terrace, gym, resort pool, wellness centre and outdoor dining space.

South Brisbane's liveability and lifestyle driving buyers to Akin apartments

With its cascading entrance, soaring lines and integrated greenery, Akin makes a striking addition to the South Brisbane streetscape.

Soaring 30-storeys above one of Brisbane’s most sought-after precincts, the Merivale Street site straddles the urban environment of West End and the artistic, educational and commercial hub of South Bank.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185118]

Designed by DBI Architects, Akin offers a diverse selection of one, two, three, and four-bedroom apartments, along with sub penthouses and penthouses boasting world-class design with intuitively integrated smart home functionality.

Five-star amenities like the resident’s lobby, business hub, rooftop terrace, gym, resort pool, wellness centre and outdoor dining all help to create a sense of resort-style living within the residences.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185117]

Tallis Property Group noted the location of the development as the main influence on the outcome of the building artwork.

“The nexus between old and new, residential and commercial, work and play. In other words, the linking of contrasts," the team suggest.

“The result has evolved out of a process of collaboration with the architect and understanding how the building is to engage with the resident and the pedestrian alike.”

The developers said the scale of the building was integral to achieving their vision and creating an iconic building in Brisbane's South.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185115]

“Key to the work are the street level finishes, which, through tactility, richness of colour and sculptural materiality, activates the artwork, and kerbside on a pedestrian level. This materiality welcomes and encourages viewer investigation and involvement with the work.”

The street facade is an abstract landscape of contrasting shapes and undulations, utilising the light filtering through from day-to-day to add to the grandeur of the build. Concrete facades give the form a raw quality, while the introduction of greenery illustrates a contrast, furthermore, presenting the vision of the developers.

To the right of the main building, moss green tiles of a human scale create a textured wall, while also delineating the main built form. On the eastern side of the residential building the moss green tiles continue, where a third scale is introduced for a third artwork opportunity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185113]

Five configurations of two, three and four-bedroom residences are still available in the development, with the Sky-Home stage of the project released at the start of the year.

Construction is expected to be completed on the project by 2023.

South Brisbane's in demand Akin apartments almost all gone 

The national construction firm Descon has been appointed to build Tallis Property Group's $180 million South Brisbane apartment development, AKIN.

Construction will soon kick&nbsp;off on the 30-storey tower at&nbsp;35 Merivale Street,&nbsp;with Descon working to&nbsp;the&nbsp;future forward design plans from architecture firm DBI, who has installed&nbsp;some of the most advanced technologies on the market, from number plate and face recognition, to pin code apartment access and home automation.

There will be 190 apartments across the building, with 80 per cent of the apartments on the low and mid-rise levels sold out. The upper floor sky homes will be launched to the market in January 2022.

Two of the levels in AKIN are reserved for residential amenity, which will include a health and wellness centre with heated pool, spa, gym, yoga studio, and steam and sauna rooms, and a business centre with hot desks, lounge and meeting rooms.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185113]

The rooftop features private dining rooms and outdoor barbecue and dining spaces, commercial kitchen, wine cellar and cinema.

Work is expected to take around two years, with completion expected for early 2024.

Tallis Group CEO, Angus Gao, said so far demand has been from owner-occupiers.

“The majority of purchasers at AKIN are owner-occupiers which speaks volumes about its location and design credentials, and the impressive integration of complementary lifestyle and security technologies throughout the building,” Gao said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185114]

“The momentum we’ve achieved from the formal launch in May, through to construction commencing in November, is remarkable and we look forward to carrying this into the New Year when we release the sky home collection.”

MOTIV Group CEO, Carly Cottam, who is marketing the apartments, said the ability for purchasers to amalgamate and customise their apartments has been fundamental to the sales success of the project.

“It is rare for an inner-city building to have such a high percentage of owner-occupiers; however this is a testament to the vision for AKIN and the relationship Tallis Property Group has with its buyers,” Cottam said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27815 project_image_fid=185116]

“The ability for purchasers to customise their apartments has provided greater diversity in the building, with a selection of five and six-bedroom apartments complementing the existing mix of two, three and four-bedroom apartments and sub penthouses.

“It’s the embodiment of intuitive, future-focused home design.”

There's a number of the two-bedroom apartments remaining, starting from $696,900.&nbsp;
