Perth’s new apartment market recorded its strongest quarter of sales since Q4 2021, with 412 apartments sold in Q1 2026 and a record quarterly sold value of $537 million, according to Urbis’ latest Apartment Essentials results.

Urbis said the March quarter result reflects strong, highly product‑specific demand across both ends of the market, from more attainable projects delivering at scale, through to premium stock being absorbed by equity‑rich downsizers.&nbsp;

David Cresp, Partner at Urbis, said the key story in Perth is not demand, it is the market’s ability to convert demand into delivered housing.&nbsp;

“This is the strongest sales quarter since Q4 2021, and it reinforces that demand in Perth is real and it’s local,” David Cresp said. “But the task now is delivery, turning that demand into projects that can actually be built and completed.”&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110291 project_image_fid=302785]

<h2>Affordable product leads, premium demand remains resilient</h2>

Sales in Q1 were led by more affordable projects, with The Boulevard (SKS Group) recording 115 sales in the quarter, the presentation noting this is only the second time a single project has surpassed 100 quarterly sales. The project was able to offer more affordable housing product right next to a train station.&nbsp;

Palmyra West (Finbar) also delivered strong results with 28 sales in Q1, following 84 sales in Q4, with an average price of under $800,000, underscoring depth of demand for well‑located, attainable new stock.&nbsp;

At the premium end, Urbis said downsizer demand is continuing, with the results highlighting Romeo (Applecross, Finbar) recording 75 sales and reaching almost 50% sold in one quarter.

Jual (Shenton Park, Celsius Property) also posted a strong quarter with 28 sales, reaching 39% sold in one quarter.

Urbis noted that Perth apartment demand is not speculative, not investor‑led, and not uniform, describing it as localised, often equity‑driven and highly product‑specific, a pattern reflected in the polarisation between strong “attainable” performers and premium downsizer product.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=148957 project_image_fid=364102]

<h2>Prices underpinned by costs, and the delivery risk is growing</h2>

Urbis said pricing pressure is cost not demand‑driven: construction costs and delivery risk are now a central constraint, with the results noting build costs remain elevated and volatile, and that energy, fuel and labour uncertainty weigh on feasibility.

David Cresp said a growing challenge for private Build‑to‑Sell developers is simply securing a builder in the current environment.

“Developers are really feeling the pressure from a building market that was operating at capacity and securing a builder is challenging,” David Cresp said, adding that even where a builder can be secured, “trying to get to the price that makes the development financially viable is incredibly challenging in the current market.”&nbsp;

Urbis’ broader WA commentary also notes that industry remains at or above capacity with lot and housing creation, and that many builders are limiting new sales to manage stretched workforces and fixed‑price contract pressures, conditions that flow directly into apartment feasibility and delivery timing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108869 project_image_fid=317905]

<h2>Supply: improving later, but still constrained, and Perth lags eastern benchmarks</h2>

While near‑term supply remains constrained, Urbis’ forecast shows completions lifting “Supply is forecast to be back above 1,500 apartments per annum for the first time since 2019”, with 1,775 completions forecast for 2026, and volumes remaining above that level over the following years.&nbsp;

Looking further ahead, completions are forecast to reach 2,500 in 2028, with the report noting 32% of that total is social/affordable, reflecting the role of government‑supported delivery in rebuilding the pipeline.&nbsp;

However, Urbis said Perth remains behind comparable markets on pipeline scale. In a national comparison of projects under construction, the report shows under construction Perth Build‑to‑Sell (BTS) at 3,446 apartments versus the Gold Coast at 7,922. Mr Cresp said “The challenge for Perth is how to we grow the delivery pipeline”.

Urbis’ conclusion is that Perth’s market is increasingly defined by product discipline and delivery certainty, with the research identifying “delivery certainty is key” and calling out builder risk and procurement models as core success factors, alongside “timing and staging”.&nbsp;

Perth apartment sales hit strongest pace since late 2021 as builder capacity tightens

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sammut-developments">Sammut Group</a> has secured development approval for its latest Brisbane apartment project, marking the Sydney developer’s next step in expanding its Queensland pipeline following the success of its debut Gold Coast development, Coast.

The approved project at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/44-glen-road-toowong-qld-4066">44 Glen Road, </a><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/toowong-qld-4066">Toowong</a> will deliver a 15-storey riverfront apartment building with 42 residences, significantly increasing the scale of the site’s previous approval for a smaller luxury scheme. Designed by Bureau^proberts, the development will comprise a mix of predominantly four-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments positioned to maximise Brisbane River and city views.

Sammut Director Julian Sammut said the group had been actively searching Brisbane for several years before identifying Toowong as the right fit.

“Brisbane was the right step for Sammut,” Sammut said.

“With the success of Coast we thought we should definitely look to do more in Queensland alone. We then pushed up to look at Brisbane. We've been looking for I'd say two to three years actually and it was hard to find the right location.”

<img alt="Sammut makes Brisbane apartment play" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/f_auto,c_limit,w_1440,q_75/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/field/image/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.27.14%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=dYAVIL7qdcGA8ojvkslSrLjczXFejSSx" />

Sammut said suburbs including New Farm and Teneriffe were considered before the group ultimately focused on Toowong due to its strong downsizer demographic and limited supply of developable riverfront land.

The site was acquired off-market after what Sammut described as a lengthy negotiation and planning process, with the developer pursuing an uplift to the original approval.

“We are DA approved now which is very exciting,” Sammut said.

“We've had our change approval come through and we've obviously doubled the height, 15 storeys plus rooftop. We've got 42 amazing apartments that are going to be coming to market soon.”

<img alt="Sammut makes Brisbane apartment play" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,dpr_2.0,q_auto:good/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.27.26%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=ohkRkY0dIZlqdfME2EZePsCQavRiBadE" />

Bureau^proberts said the design responds to Toowong’s evolving urban character, balancing contemporary apartment living with the area’s established residential identity.

“A place where traditional Queensland living has taken place for centuries; Toowong is seeing a shift of contemporary influence, commercial and retail hubs mixed with well-considered residential offerings – all the while maintaining its character and charm,” the architect noted in planning documents submitted to Brisbane City Council.

The architecture practice said the project’s form was shaped by its riverfront setting, flood considerations, neighbouring building scales, and view corridors.

“They said the mix of four and two-bedroom apartments capture the ‘fundamental qualities of Queenslander living,’ translated into the context of a contemporary subtropical building.”

The development sits just off Coronation Drive within walking distance of Toowong’s retail precinct and the upgraded Regatta ferry terminal, while also benefiting from proximity to the incoming green bridge connection to West End. Sammut said the accessibility and amenity offering were central to the site’s appeal.

The approval adds to growing residential activity along the Toowong riverfront, joining nearby projects including Consolidated Properties’ Monarch Residences and Spyre Group’s ARC Residences.

Sammut secures approval for debut Brisbane apartment development in Toowong

Developer Lanevick is heading back into Sydney’s apartment market after focusing more heavily on the luxury townhouse and terrace sector in recent years.

Lanevick, founded and directed by Steve Maroun, is expecting to receive approval in the coming months for a new apartment development in Gladesville, with the aim to launch it to the market later this year.

The 51-apartment project, designed by Studio Johnston, will comprise a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments positioned toward the Hunters Hill downsizer market.

“Traditionally it’s been difficult for people in that market to downsize because there just hasn’t been the right product available,” Maroun said.

“We’re targeting buyers who might have 30 to 40 per cent of their house value sitting in the bank after downsizing.

“They still want good spacious entertaining areas, they still want quality design, but they also want flexibility and the ability to enjoy life a bit more after working hard for a long time.”

The project sits near Boronia Park and within close proximity to the Parramatta River foreshore, an area Maroun says offers more of a Hunters Hill lifestyle than a traditional apartment precinct.

“From a lifestyle perspective, it’s really more Hunters Hill than Gladesville,” Maroun said. “You’re close to the foreshore, close to parklands, and still connected back into the village precinct.”

From level four and above, apartments will capture water views&nbsp;toward Sydney Harbour. Communal amenity will include rooftop entertaining areas, wellness spaces, and a gym tailored toward owner-occupier buyers.

“We’ve really designed these apartments around that buyer coming from the Hunters Hill LGA and what they’re actually looking for in their next chapter.”

The proposed development has also been designed to respond to the changing character of the broader Gladesville town centre, where a growing number of mixed-use and residential proposals are expected to emerge over the coming years.

“Gladesville presented a rare opportunity to deliver a genuinely design-led residential project within an evolving lifestyle precinct, just moments from the growing Gladesville town centre, and we’ve approached the project with a strong focus on architecture, liveability and long-term community value,” Maroun said.

Maroun said Lanevick saw a first-mover advantage within the precinct as planning controls continue to evolve to accommodate greater housing density.

“We think there’s a real opportunity there that hasn’t really been serviced properly yet,” he said.

“There’s going to be a broader evolution of the whole Gladesville village precinct over time, particularly with more activation and mixed-use outcomes.”

The Venus Street proposal will include a commercial and retail component at ground level designed to contribute to that evolving streetscape activation.

“A big part of the thinking was how do you activate that area properly and create more vibrancy and amenity, which is what Hunters Hill has been looking for,” Maroun said.

Lanevick’s focus since 2020 has largely been on smaller-scale luxury townhouse and terrace developments. The developer recently completed Royale Randwick, also designed by Studio Johnston, where prices reached $3.65 million. The project was featured in the UDIA NSW 2026 Professional Development Prospectus and was also named a finalist for Development of the Year.

Lanevick to cater for Hunters Hill downsizers with new Gladesville apartment development

Property developer One Living, backed by former Macquarie banker turned investment manager Chris Green’s investment firm, has unveiled plans to bring more institutional capital into housing to help address the national supply crisis.

The New York-based investor has focused his firm, GreenPoint Partners, on addressing the supply shortage hitting middle market housing in Australia.

It is backing the new One Living business to develop more than 1000 units along the eastern seaboard. The new firm is starting with a development on Mona Vale Road, on the border of Mona Vale and Pymble, in Sydney’s Northern Beaches, with around 140 apartments planned. They are eyeing off more sites across the city.

With cost pressures rising in the industry, One Living’s model is to be a vertically integrated developer-builder, so it can respond directly to the housing gap by removing the cost inefficiencies embedded in traditional residential delivery.

“We are building a platform designed to operate at scale and starting in a market where there’s a clear need for quality, attainable housing,” One Living joint managing director Joseph Scuderi said.

“It’s that missing middle – it’s that attainable end of housing… that’s what most Australians invest into and what Australians can actually afford.”

<img alt="Mona Vale" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="798dfa93-4941-4db6-a696-31e9dc18e81c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-28%20at%202.31.50%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=mKBqi5C_DmeiXS.AtJkcR8LQIxqCqmFi" />

GreenPoint Partners brings years of experience assembling and scaling real estate operating businesses across major markets. And Green sees a big opportunity in Australia.

“For its size, sophistication and importance to the community, Australia’s living sector has remained largely under-institutionalised, which represents significant opportunity,” Green said. “GreenPoint identified that gap, assembled the right team, and is backing One Living to build a platform that is aligned to market needs.”

Green said being a builder-developer would give the company the capacity and flexibility it required to deliver reasonably-priced homes.

“We want it to be at that attainable level; not super high end luxury but at that attainable level,” he said.

<img alt="Mona Vale" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="74a5344a-4b26-4d4a-ada3-056b1220be77" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-28%20at%202.32.15%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=vY8hXHO4reBMdO8ZXMWCNtGZJofUPQ3j" />

&nbsp;

One Living will undertake a component of affordable housing in its schemes, which it will own and operate, and it could also run build-to-rent on some sites.

Green praised local policy settings.

“The NSW government is being very supportive, strategic and pragmatic in terms of how do we generate more supply of housing,” he said. “We think it’s actually positive for development and the bit that’s been lacking at that attainable level is that it’s lots of relatively small private developers, whereas we want to create an institutional platform.”

One Living is also&nbsp;looking at high-density projects and could take on more institutional funding in the future.

“The way we will be able to achieve economies of scale is through size,” Green added.

One Living enters Sydney's new apartment market with Northern Beaches site acquisition

It's been several years since there's been an opportunity to buy a brand new townhome in Melbourne's coastal suburb of Mordialloc. Even apartment developments in recent times have been few and far between in the area.

Local developer LDS Property identified the gap in new housing, securing a site on White Street, directly opposite&nbsp;Woodlands Golf Club Mordialloc. They've recently launched&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/wm-residences-mordialloc-102-white-street-mordialloc-vic-3195">WM Residences</a>, just 13 townhouses which they have already started building.

Projects by Buxton Director Heath Thompson, who is selling WM Residences, says the townhouses x that perfect middle ground be

"Mordialloc residents have had limited options to downsize within the suburb, often forcing them to look elsewhere despite long-standing ties to the area," Thompson says.

"With very little comparable new supply coming to market, projects like WM Residences are well placed, particularly as buyers look to capitalise on current conditions amid constrained supply."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6109]

The development, designed by regarded architecture firm&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/ewert-leaf">Ewert Leaf</a>,&nbsp;adopts a deliberately restrained architectural approach, focusing on simplicity, durability and liveability rather than overt design gestures.

The boutique scale is central to the offering. With only 13 three-bedroom residences, each home is configured to prioritise functional layouts and everyday use, supported by private terraces and secure two-car garages.

Ewert Leaf’s design response leans into a calm, neutral material palette. Interiors are defined by oak flooring, white walls and soft finishes, creating a consistent and understated backdrop. The approach avoids trend-driven detailing in favour of longevity, with an emphasis on natural light and spatial clarity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6110]

Beyond aesthetics, the homes are designed to meet contemporary performance expectations. Each residence targets a minimum 6-star energy rating, incorporating double glazing, comprehensive insulation and all-electric Bosch appliances.

The project’s location supports a walkable coastal lifestyle, sitting within close proximity to Mordialloc’s foreshore, Main Street retail strip and the train station. Local cafés and dining venues, including Suburbia Deli and Hendriks Café, are within a short walk, reinforcing the area’s established neighbourhood character.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6116]

While <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/mordialloc-vic-3195">Mordialloc</a> is often defined by its beach and pier, the project taps into other areas of day to day living, offering easy access to local food, casual dining and transport, rather than positioning itself purely as a lifestyle retreat.

WM Residences reflects a continued trend across Melbourne’s coastal suburbs towards smaller-scale, design-led townhouse developments, particularly on infill sites where proximity to amenity is already established.

With construction commenced prior to its market entry, the project aligns with a growing preference among buyers for developments with visible progress and defined delivery timeframes.

The redevelopment of western Sydney's The Paper Mill by Coronation Property will see the heritage-listed mill building in Liverpool repurposed as an open plan dining venue.
Joe Nahas, Managing Director of Coronation Property said retailers, overseen by a single operator, can be envisaged as traditional ‘stalls’ which include an artisanal bakery and cafe, a rotisserie, woodfired pizza kitchen, inhouse brewery, private dining and kids play area.
“This space, complete with dessert carts and open fireplaces, will be Liverpool’s destination dining spot – a modern-day bistro that reflects the values of slow living: cultivating community, simplifying our lives and reclaiming time for what matters most,” he said.
“The retail precinct at The Paper Mill will be a vibrant community zone, comprising approximately 1,400 square metres of premium retail space in a contemporary open-plan setting with exposed ceilings and concrete flooring.
“Ultimately, we’d like to emulate the buzzing retail and food culture that areas such as Balmain, Newtown or Surry Hills provide.
The mill building is expected to open by the end of 2017. 
The regeneration of The Paper Mill precinct includes the construction of 882 apartments on the site, across four contemporary buildings – The Paper Mill, The Bindery, The Gild and The Foundry.
Mr Nahas says The Paper Mill will be a significant drawcard for residents of both Liverpool and wider Sydney. 
“The Paper Mill will connect the indoor and outdoor lifestyle that people love, and once it is fully occupied, the precinct will be home to around 3,000 people who will enjoy the amenity on offer, in addition to Liverpool locals and visitors from other parts of Sydney," he said.
“Liverpool already ticks a lot of boxes for infrastructure, and there’s more on the way, with the region set to benefit from $7 billion in infrastructure investment over the coming decade.
“This is why Liverpool is fast shaping up to be one of the most desirable locations for young buyers to live in Sydney.”
The site’s industrial history began in 1864, when The Australian Paper Company purchased 17 acres of the Collingwood estate in Liverpool.

Open plan dining venue slated for Sydney's heritage mill building

The Liverpool and Fairfield unit market have a healthy level of demand, according to Herron Todd White’s latest July report.
The property data firm says that units below $500,000 is available in those two areas.
“This time last year we mentioned the diminishing opportunities to enter the south-west property market within the sub $500,000 price point.
“That trend has certainly continued in this market segment and that price point is now ultimately reserved to units or vacant land within new subdivisions further from the central hubs of Liverpool and Fairfield.
“The Liverpool and Fairfield home unit market still offers plenty of stock available for under $500,000, although this is limited to older style, 1960s and 1970s low rise walk-up developments or new 1-bedroom units within modern or new high density developments.
“A one bedroom unit at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-unit-nsw-warwick+farm-125309042" target="_blank">9/5 Drummond Street</a>, Warwick Farm (above) has been listed for $329,000.
“Similarly a one bedroom unit at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-nsw-liverpool-125088022" target="_blank">73/12-18 Bathurst Street</a>, Liverpool (below) has been listed for $410,000.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2017/07/03/73_12-18%20Bathurst%20Street.jpg" alt="">
“There are newer style 2000s built 2-bedroom units available under $500,000 however these are mostly second tier high density developments and no longer benefit from the brand new condition which appeals to investors and tenants alike,” the report stated.
However opportunities to enter the sub $500,000 market are impossible due to land values Herron Todd White advises.
“Opportunities to enter the dwelling sub $500,000 market within these locations is basically non- existent given that land value generally exceeds this price point.
“This market benefits from higher than average rental yields which can be appealing to investors, however this is usually a trade-off with weaker capital growth compared to coastal regions such as St George and Sutherland Shire LGAs south of Sydney or locations closer to the Sydney CBD,” the report advised.
Units in Liverpool and Fairfield have a stable demand Herron Todd White comments.
“Liverpool and Fairfield unit markets are currently steady with a healthy level of demand.
“This demand is likely to continue into the future given that these locations are the central hub of the south-west region and are easily accessible via motorways and public transport and within close proximity of the future Western Sydney Airport at Badgerys Creek,” the report commented.
Herron Todd White warns, however, that the unit market is likely to face downward pressure in values due to increasing supply and market conditions.
“As with many regions of Sydney, the unit market is likely to face some downward pressure on values in the near future due to the increasing supply of similar stock and general market conditions, particularly given that this market is heavily investor driven.
“Apart from home units, the other residential asset type sub $500,000 is vacant land located within new suburbs of the South West Priority Growth Area.
“This includes new suburbs such as Edmondson Park on the fringe of Liverpool LGA and further out such as Harrington Park within Camden LGA. Land values are continuing to rise in these suburbs with many lots now in the $400,000 to $500,000 range (or higher) and are generally 300 to 500 square metres.
“Once a parcel is secured, a buyer would then be looking at approximately $300,000 or more to build a family home.
“Such locations are more than 60 kilometres from the Sydney CBD, however are likely to benefit from the growth of the Parramatta and Liverpool regions and the future airport at Badgerys Creek," the report warned.

Liverpool and Fairfield unit market sees healthy demand: HTW

The changing landscape of Liverpool is perfect for residential investors, according to Savills’ latest report.
“Despite strong price growth over the past decade, Liverpool remains a relatively affordable location to buy residential property in comparison to the rest of Sydney.
“The average price in the suburb of Liverpool in December 2016 was $777,000 for a house and $412,000 for a unit.
“This is in line with the average across the wider Liverpool/ Fairfield area but offers a substantial discount of 27 percent and 42 percent respectively when compared to the Sydney average.
“Over the past ten years, house and unit prices in Liverpool have increased significantly with values rising by 137 percent and 122 percent respectively, outperforming the Sydney average.
“Over the past year, the rate of annual growth has slowed to 4 percent for units and 7 percent for houses, reflecting a more subdued housing market seen across Sydney,” the report stated.
Investors in Liverpool focus more on income return rather than price growth Savills comments.
“Since the slowdown in capital value growth across Sydney, an increasing number of investors are placing more emphasis on income return rather than relying only on price growth.
“In Liverpool, the median weekly rent is $480 for houses and $390 for units, resulting in average yields of 3.2 percent and 4.9 percent respectively.
“These are higher than the Sydney average, particularly for units where the median yield across the city is 4.1 percent, and as such, Liverpool is attracting an increasing number of investors.
“The supply of units in Liverpool nearly doubled in 2013 compared to the previous four years as a number of large-scale developments came to the market.
“These units have been absorbed and the number of unit sales has fallen to back in line with the long-term average.
“This has had a positive impact on the vacancy rate across the city of Liverpool, which has been falling over the past six months from 2.2 percent in January 2016 to 1.5 percent in January 2017,” the report advised.
The number of new residents coming to Liverpool has outperformed the Sydney average Savills head of research Sophie Chick reports.
“Over the past 10 years, population growth across the City of Liverpool has outperformed the Sydney average, increasing by 26.0 percent compared to 16.6 percent.
“This has significantly added to the demand for real estate in the area, equating to nearly 4,500 new residents per year.
“Families with children make up a higher proportion of the population in Liverpool than across Sydney, accounting for 60.9 percent of residents compared to an average of 47.0 percent.
“This drives strong demand for housing suitable for children with outside space.
“International buyers are an important source of demand for the housing market across Sydney as both owner- occupiers and investors.
“Liverpool is a culturally diverse city and already has a large international community. Just one-third of residents describe their ancestry as Australian or English compared to over half across Greater Sydney.
“There is a range of employment opportunities in Liverpool, meaning one-third of the residents work locally.
“Beyond Liverpool, Sydney CBD is the largest employment location, accounting for 10 percent of Liverpool’s working population, followed by neighbouring Fairfield and Bankstown. Sydney CBD is the next largest employment location followed by neighbouring Fairfield and Bankstown.
“Health care and social assistance is one of Liverpool’s largest employment sectors, reflecting the fact that the city is home to the largest hospital in NSW,” she commented.
Savills say that Liverpool’s population growth is set to continue.
“The city of Liverpool has already experienced higher population growth than many other areas in Sydney and this is set to continue.
“Over the next 20 years, the City’s population is forecast to increase by 55 percent to 331,000 people compared to a 37 percent increase across Greater Sydney.
“This is likely to further contribute to the already high demand for residential property in the area.
“The construction of Badgerys Creek Airport and surrounding infrastructure to support the new airport is expected to have a significant impact on Liverpool.
“The upgraded and newly formed road networks will increase Liverpool’s connectivity between the surrounding suburbs and greater Sydney.
“With a number of major projects and regeneration schemes underway, the desirability of the area for existing and new residents is forecast to continue to grow,” the report stated.

Liverpool perfect for residential investors: Savills

<html><body>
Design will be the focus of developer Coronation Property’s projects in Liverpool and Parramatta in Sydney, resulting from its collaboration with international designers and architects.
Jamie Durie’s firm Durie Design will deliver the landscape masterplan at The Paper Mill – an 882-apartment development across four buildings in Liverpool – with the company’s work to include a makeover of the Georges River and surrounding foreshore. 
In Parramatta, the design firm will be responsible for the landscape elements at the 55-storey mixed-use tower 8 Phillip Street. 
Durie’s accomplishments include commercial projects all over the world, such as the Singapore Bay foreshore, Sheraton Salobre Resort Spain, Albarari in Dubai and Australia’s own Hayman Island Resort.
Durie won awards including the PCA Award for Best Residential Development in Australia and a Gold Medal at London’s Chelsea Flower Show. 
 <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2017/06/26/JamieDurie.jpg" alt="">
“Our design concepts aim to create a sense of community, especially through the clever planning of gardens and green spaces,” said Durie. 
“As such, we’re interested in delivering interactive areas where people can dine, BBQ, sunbake and play, with our landscaping designed to give residents a sense of belonging and what we call ‘destination design’.” 
Durie said the revitalisation of the riverfront precinct at The Paper Mill was a perfect example of urban transformation. 
“This changes the dynamic of urban planning in Liverpool by truly turning the focus back onto the previously disused riverbank. The Paper Mill development is the first to take this approach in Liverpool and I can’t wait to see its progress, because it will really set the benchmark for urban renewal projects in the area.” 
Durie said the landscaping will try and maximise the connection to the water at the Paper Mill, where residents can enjoy views of the Georges River.
 <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2017/06/26/PaperMill2.jpg" alt="">
Meanwhile, at Parramatta’s 8 Phillip Street, Durie said he plans to apply his ‘transterior’ philosophy, which involves creating a seamless transition between interior and exterior spaces. 
“We’ll be implementing this quintessentially Australian style of living in the tower’s entrance, rooftop bar, pool terrace and streetscape,” said Durie.

Western Sydney's residential development The Paper Mill, in Liverpool, has won the Meriton Excellence in Marketing award from The Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA).
Frost*collective was commissioned by developer Coronation to create a brand identity, strategic positioning and marketing campaign for The Paper Mill.
Coronation managing director Joseph Nahas said the changing face of south western Sydney, coupled with the opportunity to revitalise a long neglected riverfront location and opportunity to capture the historical features of the site, meant that our marketing campaign was always going to need to be something special.
“When we look at those who were also finalists for this award and the projects they have created, we are very proud of how Frost* has captured the essence of The Paper Mill and brought it to life –  and importantly how this has resonated with purchasers," he said.
Mirvac and UrbanGrowth NSW’s development, Ovo, in the Green Square Town Centre, (above) for which Frost*collective created a new brand and full marketing campaign – was announced as a runner up in UDIA’s Marketing Excellence award.

Set within the riverfront The Paper Mill development, prices in the Woods Bagot-designed project ranged from $400,000 up to $685,000 for a three-bedroom terrace.
Some 80% will be owner occupiers with around 20% investors. 
Around 90% of the purchasers were local. 
Coronation Property Co's Paper Mill’s initial release also garnered strong local interest.
Jason Soulos, sales director for Coronation Property Co, the developers of The Paper Mill says Liverpool is a city undergoing significant transformation. 
Designed by architect Domenic Alvaro and his team at Woods Bagot, The Bindery is part of the reactivation of the Georges River and surrounding urban areas.
With top-tier finishes that include recycled timber and brick, granite cobblestones and steel inlay to reflect the site’s industrial past, The Bindery features three sky bridges that link each of the buildings, reminiscent of the communal spaces found within New York apartment buildings.
The purpose built display suite is on Shepherd Street. For more information on the development, <a href="https://www.liveatthepapermill.com.au" target="_blank">click here</a>.
