It’s only been a few months since local Gold Coast developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/dankav-developments">Dankav</a> unveiled its next precinct-driven project, and less than a month since formally launching <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-alfred-mermaid-beach-2375-gold-coast-highway-mermaid-beach-qld-4218">The Alfred Residences</a>, a reimagining of the former Mermaid Beach Shopping Village.

In just the first three weeks, 30 of the 40 residences in stage one have been secured, predominantly by local buyers already living within the coveted 4218 postcode, underscoring the demand for a well-connected, beachside lifestyle.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149942 project_image_fid=355148]

The origins of the shopping village, a community staple for several decades, will continue under DANKAV’s precinct-driven scheme. The apartments in the first stage will sit above a curated collection of restaurants, cafés and boutique retailers.

A central landscaped laneway defines the ground plane, framed by a series of low-scale buildings that open into shaded courtyards and plazas designed by <a href="http://j.ar">J.AR</a> Office. The residences above were designed by BDA Architecture and feature generous balconies, modern interiors and elevated views across the ocean, skyline or hinterland. The interiors are curated with layered detail and coastal-appropriate finishes, with layouts focused on privacy, natural light and ventilation.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149942 project_image_fid=355150]

It was the site’s prime location that first appealed to DANKAV founder Daniel Veitch. The development sits directly across the road from the future Mermaid Beach South light rail station, giving residents convenient public transport access to the rest of the Coast.

While DANKAV is delivering extensive amenity as part of the retail plaza, the area is already well serviced, with a Woolworths Metro, established cafés and restaurants, and the all-important sand of Mermaid Beach just 100 metres from the front door.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149942 project_image_fid=355149]

DANKAV is also behind the recently completed The Oxley 1823 at Nobby’s Beach, which has become the area’s go-to lifestyle precinct. They are nearing completion of LAANI on Alexandra Avenue, also in Mermaid Beach.

Construction on The Alfred Residences has already commenced, with the first stage slated for completion in 2027.

On the top floor of Gardner Va​ughan Group’s <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/danby-lane-nundah-village-5-danby-lane-nundah-qld-4012">Danby Lane</a> project in Nundah, just two penthouses offer some of the largest and most detailed new apartment homes ever delivered in the well-connected suburb, and among the biggest in Brisbane’s inner north.

Each of the four-bedroom, three-bathroom residences spans the full depth of the building on the 10th storey, one of the tallest buildings in Nundah. They are split between north and southeast orientations, maximising natural light and cross-ventilation, as well as capturing the suburb’s best views from the large wrap-around balconies.

One of the penthouses has already been snapped up by a local.&nbsp;The remaining 270 sqm penthouse is priced at $3.4 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112531 project_image_fid=340185]

The open plan living, kitchen and dining area, which flows seamlessly to the terrace, forms the heart of each home. The kitchen has been designed as much for entertaining as everyday living, featuring large central island benches with stone overhangs that double as dining spaces. Butler’s pantries, European appliances and soft-close joinery complete the space.

The master bedroom in each penthouse features a walk-through wardrobe with integrated shelving and storage, and an ensuite with double vanities and a freestanding bathtub.

The additional bedrooms also include ensuites and balcony access, with one offering flexibility as a study or multi-purpose room. Each penthouse includes three secure car spaces, as well as a dedicated laundry with linen storage.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112531 project_image_fid=320117]

Buyers can choose from two exclusive interior schemes. The Champagne palette pairs warm whites with timber grain and gold accents, while Truffle introduces deeper tones with forest-inspired wood finishes and matte black fittings. Both schemes extend consistently throughout the home, from kitchens to bathrooms.

Gardner Vaughan Group, a vertically integrated builder-developer that has already commenced construction on Danby Lane, is set to move its headquarters into one of the commercial spaces upon completion in early 2027. Having been based in Nundah for more than a decade, Danby Lane is very much a passion project for the team.

Residents will also enjoy a suite of private amenities, including a rooftop recreation area with a swimming pool, gym and function room, along with retail tenancies on the ground floor.

Developer Tian An LFD has been given the green light from the NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority to go ahead with its new Chatswood apartment development, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/hammond-greens-chatswood-5-9-gordon-avenue-chatswood-nsw-2067">Hammond Greens</a>.

The 35-storey mixed-use tower at 5-9 Gordon Avenue, on the edge of the Chatswood Bowls Club, will comprise 91 apartments, 22 of which will be affordable homes managed by Link Wentworth. They will sit above a two-level podium with retail and commercial space.

The plans were upsized from the early 25-storey scheme which proposed 64 apartments, following the Government's new planning provisions under the Housing SEPP that gave developers the opportunity to increase heights and floor place in exchange for an affordable housing component.

&nbsp;

The design by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/fjc-studio">FJC Studio</a>&nbsp;builds on the concept first presented when the firm won the site’s design competition, describing Hammond Greens as “a unique form of vertical living that belongs on the North Shore - drawing on the vernacular and materiality of suburban living, and integrating native landscaping between the narrow tower forms”.

At ground level, 1,500 sqm of retail and commercial space will activate the podium, supporting a hybrid work environment and creating a stronger connection with the local community. Residents will also have access to an outdoor pool deck, yoga room, golf simulator, and landscaped gardens designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/sturt-noble-landscapes">Sturt Noble Associates</a>.

&nbsp;

Located less than 500 metres from Chatswood Transport Interchange, the project contributes to the suburb’s growing pipeline of high-density development. It joins the likes of Changfa's recently launched The Anderson and Billbergia's Chatswood Grand Residences.

Hammond Greens is the first of two towers Tian is planning in Chatswood. They have a sister project, dubbed Hammond Place, just one street away at 15-19 Nelson Street. That will have around 110 apartments.

The sought-after Latent Defects Insurance policy, offering off the plan apartment buyers peace of mind for 10 years post-completion, has made its way to Sydney’s harbourside. Boutique developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/toohey-miller">Toohey Miller</a> has secured this insurance for its newly launched Elizabeth Bay development, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/barncleuth-square-elizabeth-bay-4-4a-barncleuth-square-elizabeth-bay-nsw-2011">Barncleuth</a>. This marks the developer’s second project in the area, following the success of No. 1 Onslow Place.

Latent Defects Insurance, offered by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/resilience-latent-defects-insurance">Resilience Insurance</a>, provides cover for structural or waterproofing defects in new apartment buildings. It is a policy that only the developer or builder can take out, not the apartment purchaser.

Located just&nbsp;off Macleay Street, one of Sydney’s most desirable high streets, Barncleuth offers a rare collection of only 10 residences. With just two per floor, each oversized floorplan has been designed by SJB specifically for the owner-occupier.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140184 project_image_fid=356342]

The five-storey building captures views over Rushcutters Bay and Paddington, blending contemporary brickwork with the expressive silhouettes of its Art Deco neighbours.

Inside, the residences, designed by David Hicks, prioritise generous scale and enduring quality, with a mix of two- and three-bedroom layouts. Expansive terraces and cross-ventilated interiors maximise light and airflow, while sustainable features such as a green roof and locally sourced materials reflect SJB’s commitment to long-term liveability.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140184 project_image_fid=356341]

Developer Toohey Miller, led by Nick Couloumbis, says the design aims to bring lasting quality to an area long celebrated for its apartment heritage.

"It's a stone's throw from the best restaurants in Sydney. Some people call it the Soho of Sydney," Couloumbis told Apartments.com.au when the project was approved.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=140184 project_image_fid=356337]

By securing <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/resilience-latent-defects-insurance">Resilience Latent Defects Insurance</a>, Barncleuth joins a growing group of premium Sydney projects adopting the gold standard in building protection.&nbsp;

The cover, provided before construction begins, ensures any hidden structural or waterproofing defects are repaired immediately, without lengthy litigation or fault disputes.

Resilience Insurance CEO Corey Nugent said the product has been a catalyst for renewed confidence in the off the plan market.&nbsp;

“Ultimately what we’re trying to do is build better buildings consumers can trust. When buyers take possession, they have full insurance protection from day one, for 10 years,” Nugent explained.

Unlike traditional policies such as strata or construction insurance, Resilience LDI is a first-resort, strict liability policy, meaning repairs are covered immediately without needing to prove negligence. Coverage extends to foundations, load-bearing walls, and waterproofing, the elements most critical to long-term structural integrity.

Regarded construction firm Jasara has been appointed to deliver Barncleuth. They are forecasting an early 2027 completion.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/golden-sedayu">Golden Sedayu</a> has unveiled plans for the next phase of its landmark $4 billion <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/burswood-point-saintly-entrance-burswood-wa-6100">Burswood Point</a> project, just 3.5km from the Perth CBD at the Belmont Racecourse site.

The Local Development Plan Application has been lodged for a world-class mixed-use hub (Precinct B) on the previously untouched 2.5km stretch of Swan River foreshore.

Designed by Skidmore, Owings &amp; Merrill (SOM), recognised for their work on the world’s tallest skyscraper, Burj Khalifa in Dubai and the One World Trade Centre in New York, Precinct B will feature 15 buildings, offering a mix of residential and commercial spaces including a shopping centre up to 30,000 sqm in size.

Complementing this, an internationally acclaimed five-star hotel, and a high-end pedestrian-friendly retail boulevard with vibrant day-and-night retail, dining, and entertainment venues, will provide exciting new ways for Perth residents to connect with the riverfront.

This latest milestone signals continued construction and expansion momentum across Perth’s premier riverfront community, which is set to attract local, national and international visitors.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142314 project_image_fid=263304]

The masterplan features 110,000 sqm of public open space, which is comparable to other Perth landmarks including inner-city Langley Park and South Perth foreshore. The riverside precinct will be brought to life through a visionary landscape concept by globally renowned architectural practice Grant Associates.

With an impressive international portfolio, including Gardens by the Bay and Funan Mall in Singapore and Barangaroo South in Sydney, the firm brings expertise in creating environments that harmonise with surrounding amenity.

At 38 hectares, Burswood Point is one of the largest urban development projects ever undertaken in Australia, and one of Perth’s most transformative mixed-use developments.

Golden Sedayu Managing Director Andrew Sugiaputra said the company was working closely with SOM, Grant Associates and the Government of Western Australia to ensure Burswood Point’s design responds sensitively to its surroundings, reflecting and enhancing the character, history, and natural features of the local environment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142314 project_image_fid=1817]

“West Australians enjoy a privileged outdoor lifestyle and the Swan River is central to their enjoyment,"&nbsp;Sugiaputra said.

"We’re proud to be creating something truly spectacular and unique for the city, a place that feels alive from sunrise to sunset, a place where people can stay, shop, dine, and celebrate life on the river."

Precinct B builds on the outstanding success of Burswood Point’s first residential stage, which has been met with exceptional market demand. Somerset Residences, a two- tower luxury apartment development, and the exclusive riverfront homes collection are under construction and selling fast. As the number of Perth houses listed for sale remain at or near record lows, Burswood Point will deliver 4,500 new homes over the next 10 years.

“Golden Sedayu is dedicated to delivering on our promises,"&nbsp;Sugiaputra added.

"Our clients can buy with confidence, knowing that the price is fixed throughout construction. In an industry that has faced challenging market conditions, we’re proud to provide our clients complete peace of mind and confidence in the value of their investment."

They put together a great project team, architecture firm Rothelowman, landscaper Jack Merlo, and builder Hickory, for the Hawthorn East project, which was inspired by&nbsp;Machu Picchu, a UNESCO World Heritage site nestled high in the Peruvian Andes.

Rothelowman aimed to capture the essence of the ancient Incan ruins' harmonious integration with nature, and they successfully translated this vision into the vibrant design of Hawthorn Park.

Situated on an expansive 1.2-hectare site, Hawthorn Park boasts lush green spaces, curated gardens, and a central courtyard reminiscent of Machu Picchu's terraced landscapes.

The centrepiece of the development is a glass-bottomed swimming pool that spans between buildings and over the plaza, creating a spectacular front door to the project while also serving as the location for the comprehensive resident amenity floor.

Rothelowman Senior Associate Frances Hall said it was the feature of the development they were most looking forward to seeing.

For those who appreciate the finer things in life, Hawthorn Park features an exclusive residents' lounge, perfect for hosting social gatherings or simply unwinding after a long day.

Investors have been attracted&nbsp;Dahua Group&#39;s recently completed their $300 million&nbsp;apartment development Hawthorn Park, their biggest apartment development in Melbourne.

They&#39;ve been alerted to the area due to its&nbsp;recent median price growth of 10 per cent,&nbsp;as well as Hawthorn East&#39;s&nbsp;increasing&nbsp;median rental growth.

The suburb is comprised of 40 per cent renters, DHS found, with SQM Research calculating&nbsp;a current rental yield of 3.5 per cent in Hawthorn East being inline with Melbourne&#39;s overall yield.

Dahua said looking forward, high demand driven by the catchment&rsquo;s proximity to education, transport and amenity, coupled with the ongoing growth of the renal market, is likely to attract market interest from interstate and overseas investors.

Melbourne's first suspended sky pool: A look at the amenities at Hawthorn Park in Hawthorn East

Dahua Group recently completed their $300 million Hawthorn East apartment development Hawthorn Park, their biggest apartment development in Melbourne.

They had architecture firm Rothelowman, one of Australia&rsquo;s leading architecture practices, collaborate with the landscape architect Jack Merlo on the Camberwell Road development of 330 residences.

Now the development is complete, Urban has taken a look at five of the key selling points of Hawthorn Park.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730 project_image_fid=158928]

<h2>The Developer</h2>

Dahua Group was established in 1988 in Shanghai and was established in Victoria in 2014, a year before they entered New South Wales. In 2017 they completed their first apartment development in Melbourne, the 91 apartment block Noir in South Yarra.

Led by managing director William Huang, Dahua has currently a number of master planned communities across Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland.&nbsp;

<h2>The Architect</h2>

The Melbourne-based, but very much internationally renowned architecture firm Rothelowman handled the unique design of Hawthorn Park.

&ldquo;Dahua Group wanted a sense of community and tranquillity in a common garden setting as a transition from the hustle/bustle of Camberwell road&rdquo; Rothelowman senior associate Frances Hall told Urban.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730 project_image_fid=158934]

&ldquo;All of the colours inside and outside were influenced by tones found in nature.&nbsp; Hence the name Hawthorn Park.&rdquo;

<h2>The Amenities</h2>

Hawthorn Park&rsquo;s striking 25 metre floating lap pool with glass bottom immediately catches the eye, acting as a bridge between two of the four buildings.

Rothelowman said it was the feature of the development they were most looking forward to seeing.

&ldquo;We were most excited about delivering the pool bridge as it is testament to our collaboration with the contractor Hickory Group and the consultant team, to realise a design which resolves many complex requirements,&rdquo; Rothelowman&rsquo;s Frances Hall said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730 project_image_fid=158931]

As well as the pool, Hawthorn Park features a fully-equipped gym with a yoga and meditation studio and massage suites, a sky lounge, hammock lounge, an indoor residents lounge and a garden pavilion.

<h2>The Landscaping</h2>

One of Australia&rsquo;s leading landscape architects Jack Merlo created the central park and a series of garden spaces through Hawthorn Park, with the plan to soften and complement the built form.&nbsp;

&ldquo;Our brief was also to find a balance between providing a level of privacy in communal spaces while also providing spaces for residents to enjoy with friends,&rdquo; Merlo told Urban. &ldquo;We have achieved this with a design that caters for larger groups and smaller so it can be used by everyone for any occasion.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730 project_image_fid=158940]

&ldquo;Dahua wanted to use landscaping wherever possible, so we also have spaces like the Eastern Courtyard that provides light, greenery and a view for residents.&rdquo;

Five key selling points of Dahua’s Hawthorn East apartment development, Hawthorn Park

Established in 1991, Hickory has steadily evolved from a family-owned company to a nationwide group of construction specialists.

Top five projects Hickory are building in Melbourne in 2021

Residents have moved in to the completed&nbsp;$300 million Hawthorn East apartment project Hawthorn Park.

The striking project was developed by Dahua Group to a design by Rothelowman and sits in landscaping designed by Jack Merlo.

With buyers having moved in, Urban spoke to first home buyer&nbsp;Nahrin Butrus about her property buying journey, and what she loves about Hawthorn Park.

JR: What first drew you to Hawthorn Park?&nbsp;

NB: I was looking for a place with open space and greenery so the landscaping around the complex was actually very attractive and very important to me. And then on top of that the architectural style of the building and the interior design and finishings were all very beautiful and of high end quality. I was incredibly impressed with all that Hawthorn Park has to offer.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730 project_image_fid=158928]

JR: How long had you been searching for a property?&nbsp;

NB: For about one&nbsp;year on and off but I only seriously looked around for about three&nbsp;months with a firm intention of finding a place to finally purchase

JR: Were you always looking for an apartment?&nbsp;&nbsp;

NB: Yes, because I love the idea of living in an apartment with lots of facilities and amenities at hand. I also knew that for the location I was after an apartment would be the best option. It&rsquo;s an affordable way to live in the best part of Melbourne.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730 project_image_fid=158939]

JR: Why did you choose Hawthorn East?&nbsp;

NB: The&nbsp;location is perfect. It&rsquo;s a beautiful leafy suburb, very close to the shops and restaurants on Glenferrie, Burke, Auburn, Burwood, and Riversdale Roads, and it is very close to the city and transport. A lot of my favourite restaurants are here.

JR: What advice would you have for other first home buyers?

NB: Research on what you need to do to be ready financially and understand how the purchase process works. And there&rsquo;s plenty of government schemes to help you along with buying your first place so take advantage of them.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730 project_image_fid=158932]

JR: Did you take advantage of any government incentives?&nbsp;

NB: Yes, I used the First Home Super Saver Scheme and received the First Home Owner Grant and Stamp Duty was waived.

JR: Did you have a set of criteria that your first home had to meet?

NB: I did but I also thought about how a range of characteristics worked together. I wanted a place that was close to the city, some greenery, with a good layout, good internal and external space, lots of amenities, not too tall a building so it is overbearing. I got everything I wanted.&nbsp;

JR: What made you decide to buy off-the-plan rather than an existing dwelling?

NB: I found my dream apartment and it wasn&rsquo;t built yet. But it also has the benefit of coming with the First Home Owner Grant, and it also gave me more time to get prepared with my finances and prepare to move. It&rsquo;s nice to be able to plan in advance with a time frame than suddenly having to move your life around.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730 project_image_fid=158937]

JR: How is your experience in Hawthorn Park?&nbsp;

NB: I&#39;m very happy at Hawthorn Park. It&rsquo;s all so beautiful and has turned out to be exactly what I was hoping to get. It honestly feels like living in a resort. And the apartment itself is well built too. I can see a lot of thought has gone into the layout inside the apartment to be functional for everyday life.

JR: Hawthorn Park has an impressive list of onsite amenities - which one is your favourite and&nbsp;why?&nbsp;

NB: It does and I love them all but the sky pool is definitely the most amazing. The views of the city and surrounds are impressive up there.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730 project_image_fid=158936]

JR: How do you find Hawthorn Park community?

NB: Everyone I&rsquo;ve met and talked to so far have all been lovely and wonderful people. I look forward to meeting more of my neighbours.

Rothelowman, one of Australia’s leading architecture practices, has collaborated with developer Dahua Group and landscape architect Jack Merlo for Dahua's $300m Hawthorn Park development in Hawthorn East.

We recently spoke to Frances Hall, senior associate at Rothelowman, about the design principles of Hawthorn Park, where their inspiration came from and what were the biggest challenges of the project.

JR: What was Dahua Group’s design brief for Hawthorn Park?

FH: Dahua Group wanted a sense of community and tranquillity in a common garden setting as a transition from the hustle/bustle of Camberwell road. They also wanted a “jewel in the crown” as a gateway signifying element. This was realised with the transparent lap pool suspended between two buildings 18m in the air, the first of its kind in Australia.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3730]

JR: Where did you draw inspiration from for the design?

FH: The buildings were sited to respond to the local context and create a public park linking Camberwell Rd and Burwood Rd.  The building forms were influenced by cascading tea terraces stepping into a sunken garden.  This was contrasted with solid podiums addressing the street interfaces which were inspired by boulders in the landscape.  All of the colours inside and outside were influenced by tones found in nature.  Hence the name Hawthorn Park.

JR: What part of the design are you most proud of/excited to see upon completion?

FH: We are most excited about delivering the pool bridge as it is testament to our collaboration with the contractor Hickory Group and the consultant team, to realise a design which resolves many complex requirements.  This includes structural stability and weight, services reticulation, pool maintenance, allowance for movement, acoustics, waterproofing, building code compliance – all whilst maximising transparency and reflectivity in the appearance of the bridge.

<a href="/buildings/hawthorn-park-33-camberwell-road-hawthorn-east"><img alt="" height="829" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/hawthorn_park_sky_pool_gardens.jpg" width="580"></a>

JR: Was there anything you tested in the design principles that were different to any other projects?

FH: We had not done a bridge linking two buildings with a pool, so this was a first in terms of the design and how it would be resolved.  (More on that below).

We developed our knowledge with the sunken garden which was not dissimilar to other projects but came with its own challenges on this site.  We tested the idea of immersion in the landscape as you descend the stairs into the public sunken garden, flanked by high rusted walls as if carved out of rock, to direct views to the garden.

JR: How do you collaborate with the landscape architect, in this case Jack Merlo, to make sure the landscaping designs are in keeping with the building designs?

FH: We met with Jack Merlo and the landscape team throughout the process from concept design through to construction documentation, to resolve details and ensure consistency between the architecture and the landscape design.  Jack was both creative and practical working towards the common vision.

JR: What was the most difficult part of the planning process?

FH: We always work collaboratively with all stakeholders including Council Officers. Contour Town Planning consultants were critical in managing the complex requirements of neighbours, council officers, Councilors and client expectations. Thankfully all parties contributed positively to the developed design keeping the approval process out of VCAT. A credit to all those who contributed to the process. We commend the Boroondara council and their team for their contribution and belief in the design and for their positive and proactive approach to this project.

<a href="/buildings/hawthorn-park-33-camberwell-road-hawthorn-east"><img alt="" height="707" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/hawthorn_park_urban_1200.jpg" width="1200"></a>

JR: Talk us through the thinking of the special swimming pool deck!

FH: The Pool Bridge serves as both a link between buildings and a recreational space that creates the entry signature to Hawthorn Park.

The intention was to create a counterpoint to the curvaceous building form that complemented the composition but was also a visual challenge that presents the unexpected.

The pool level itself consists not only the 25m lap pool and deck but a separate family pool and sun lounging areas with cabanas for a resort feel.  There is also an internal function space for the residents use that opens to an outdoor bbq space and a communal kitchen garden.

The windows in the bridge floor and the sides are acrylic, which is structurally stable to hold the water whilst allowing views through to the 18m drop to ground.  The stainless steel cladding has a mirror effect (light on the street side and black on the garden side) which enhances the reflections of the water and the sense of a floating object in the sky.

Technically it was a challenge that was met by Rincovitch Structural Engineers, ADP Services Engineers and Commercial Pool Consulting / Aloha Pools including structural products designed and built in Italy.

As with all projects of note, design outcomes need the backing of clients with vision. Dahua embraced the opportunity and created an architecture that talked to context, created a spectacular internal environment and was brave with its innovation.
