Leeka Group has gone down the path of bringing a heightened level of wellness to its recently unveiled Melbourne apartment development, Comme Prahran.

It isn't in the form of a suite of amenities, given the building is more boutique in nature with just 32 apartments, but with clever inclusions designed to uplift their residents lifestyle.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/comme-prahran-182-194-commercial-road-prahran-vic-3181">Comme</a>, directly opposition the iconic Prahran Market on Commercial Road, has been designed by renowned architecture studio <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cera-stribley-architects">Cera Stribley</a> and&nbsp;will introduce the first-of-its-kind multi-dimensional wellness offering, where physical, mental, social, environmental, and cultural well-being are embedded throughout.

“Prahran has long been a destination for culture, community and quality of life, and Comme builds on that in a deeply intentional way,” says Leeka Director, Chek Ming Cheng.&nbsp;

“This project introduces a new kind of urban sanctuary, one that adapts to individual definitions of wellness, whether that’s through nutrition, rest, movement, design or connection. Every space has been thoughtfully shaped to support the diverse rhythms of modern life."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108413 project_image_fid=353544]

There will be a rooftop with a&nbsp;Zen garden designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/plume-studio">Plume Landscape Architects</a>, offering&nbsp;a sensory experience that activates all five senses, an edible herb wall to taste, calming botanicals to smell, reflexology paths to feel, lush plantings to see and the gentle sounds of water and birdsong to hear.

Inside each residence, wellness is deeply personal, and Comme embraces this individuality with a suite of customisation options designed to enhance both health and lifestyle. Residents can tailor their homes with circadian lighting automation, supported by research linking it to improved well-being, better rest, and even longevity.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108413 project_image_fid=353546]

Other add-ons residents can opt for include real-time air monitoring and purification systems, ensuring a cleaner, healthier environment, while blackout blinds help optimise sleep quality. Additionally, the option to include integrated smart home technologies and security measures with multiple controlled access points offers ease, convenience, and peace of mind, supporting day-to-day living and contributing to overall mental well-being.

Kitchens can be fitted with healthy cooking appliances such as steam ovens and taps for instant filtered, sparkling or hot water, while ensuites can be transformed into spa-style sanctuaries complete with steam showers, heated floors, rain heads, smart toilets, and sensor night lights to support restful sleep cycles. In the penthouse residence, further options include an outdoor spa for enhanced recovery and indulgence.

“Comme isn’t just about design, it’s about how space can support your day-to-day life," Chek added.

"Whether you like a steam shower, checking your indoor air quality, simply enjoying a quiet moment in the rooftop garden, or reflecting on the artworks in the building, wellness is part of your everyday routine, not an afterthought."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108413 project_image_fid=353543]

The residences will feature open-plan layouts compliant with Better Apartment Design Standards (BADS), with floor-to-ceiling windows that maximise ventilation, natural light and thermal comfort. Finishes such as natural stones, timber flooring and low-VOC paints are complemented by facade design that filters dappled light and aids in thermal comfort.

Cera Stribley, Co-Founder, Domenic Cerantonio, said the first thing you notice is the light.

"Natural light floods the living spaces, casting a soft glow that instantly lifts your spirits. It's as if the outside world melts away, and you're cocooned in a peaceful oasis."

The gallery-style residential lobby will feature circadian-inspired lighting and artwork, while the ground-floor will offer retail and hospitality spaces.

The building’s mixed-use design fosters connection, with ground-floor retail and hospitality creating a vibrant, welcoming destination. These spaces are thoughtfully designed to enhance the precinct and bring it to life.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108413 project_image_fid=353545]

Sustainability and environmental responsibility are integral to Comme Prahran’s DNA. All homes are gas-free and designed to a 7-star energy average, with double glazing, WELS-rated plumbing, and EV charging capabilities available. A light-coloured exterior has been chosen to minimise heat absorption, supporting thermal efficiency and reducing reliance on artificial cooling.

Honouring the cultural richness of Prahran, the project reimagines an Edwardian-era landmark, integrating its historic character into a contemporary architectural form. Art experiences will activate the residential and retail lobbies, and a dedicated artwork on the external eastern facade will enrich the building’s street presence, embedding it into the creative fabric of the neighbourhood.

Apartment developer Third.i has seen "overwhelming interest" in its recently unveiled new harbourside apartment project, The Rushcutters.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-rushcutters-51-57-bayswater-road-rushcutters-bay-nsw-2011">The Rushcutters</a>, which is being delivered in partnership with James Packer's NPACT, will comprise just 13 luxury two- and three-bedroom apartments.&nbsp;

Demand is predominantly coming from local downsizers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144646 project_image_fid=351903]

“We’ve been absolutely blown away by the level of interest in The Rushcutters,” said Luke Berry, Director and Co-founder Third.i Group.

“It’s clear that buyers are seeking more than just a place to live, they’re looking for a lifestyle upgrade. The ability to amalgamate apartments into expansive, whole-floor homes is a game-changer for downsizers who want space without the maintenance of a traditional house.”

The Rubinstein Group is marketing the project alongside Hume Residential and JLL.

“It’s no surprise that if you’re downsizing from a five-bedroom house in Bellevue Hill, for example, you want to maintain that sense of space and luxury when looking for your next home, "&nbsp;Gavin Rubinstein, Founder of The Rubinstein Group, said.

“The Rushcutters is a great fit. Amalgamating apartments to create a bespoke, whole-floor home is a natural progression for buyers who aren’t willing to compromise on size and/or quality.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144646 project_image_fid=351901]

Amalgamating apartments has become a common theme among high-end buyers across Third.i's portfolio including Muse in Potts Point, and Elevate Hume Place in Crows Nest, which set a Lower North Shore apartment record with the $15.1 million sale of an amalgamation of a penthouse and sub-penthouse.

“We’re witnessing a clear shift towards more amalgamations in a number of our projects across Sydney,” said Jason Fraser, Principal at Woods Bagot.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144646 project_image_fid=351899]

“The ability to combine apartments is enabling buyers to create truly unique, house-sized residences with high-end finishes, and proximity to vibrant urban precincts. The desire to amalgamate apartments to bespoke, house-sized residences is becoming a defining feature of Sydney’s evolving luxury apartment market."

Due to the City of Sydney’s no net dwelling loss policy, Thirdi is only able to offer one level for amalgamation at The Rushcutters, combining two apartments into a single, expansive residence.

The Rushcutters a "great fit" for downsizers

Lower North Shore developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/abadeen-group">Abadeen</a> has secured development approval for its ultra-luxury residential project on the <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/34-burran-avenue-mosman-nsw-2088">dress circle Burran Avenue</a>.

The project, just&nbsp;50 metres from Balmoral Beach within Mosman’s prestigious Golden Triangle, will commence construction in early 2026,&nbsp;following the successful completion of its nearby Hampden Mosman project.

Lodged in April 2025 and approved in September 2025, the development will comprise three whole-floor residences, each designed to capture panoramic harbour views through Sydney Heads.

<img alt="34 Burran Avenue, Mosman" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="7f4c7816-0ac8-4ef7-be0a-8ef23b693b68" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/BURRAN%20EV01%20R04%20option%201%20%281%29.jpg?VersionId=gVzI8pT6_K59Nhzaz0FLEvY6Kj9Kc8Fg" />

Set on an elevated 550 sqm corner site at the junction of Burran Avenue and Stanton Road, the building has been designed to sit within Balmoral’s natural slope. The façade mixes stone and metal cladding with angular forms, while oversized terraces and full-height sliding doors create a connection between interior living spaces and outdoor entertaining areas.

The delivery team from Abadeen’s Hampden Mosman project, which includes construction company Reform Projects and interiors company Mathieson, has been retained to bring the same level of execution and craftsmanship to Burran Avenue.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/platform-architects">Platform Architects</a> has been appointed project architect, bringing extensive experience from recent luxury residential projects in Manly, Fairlight and Freshwater.

&nbsp;

Justin Brown, Executive Chairman and Founder of Abadeen, said sites of this calibre, this close to Balmoral, are incredibly rare.

“Burran Avenue is an extraordinary site; its location, its scale and its outlook make it truly one of a kind. Receiving DA approval marks an exciting milestone for Abadeen."

"We’re proud to be moving forward with an exceptional team to deliver a project that will set a new standard for ultra-luxury living on Sydney’s Lower North Shore. Construction is planned to commence in early 2026, and interest is already strong from discerning local buyers who recognise the uniqueness of this address."

Brown anticipates prices will set new Mosman benchmarks above $20 million. Sales are expected to launch in March 2026.

Abadeen approved for Mosman's priciest apartments

Lifestyle developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/gurner">GURNER™ Group</a>, in partnership with Costa Property Group, has announced plans to reimagine Cunningham Pier in Geelong, one of Victoria's most recognisable heritage landmarks.

The announcement follows the City of Greater Geelong’s release of its Draft Geelong Waterfront Master Plan, which seeks to revitalise the waterfront with new energy, tourism, and investment. GURNER and Costa Property Group’s vision aligns with the Council’s ambitions to create a vibrant, connected, and economically powerful precinct for the community.&nbsp;

The future of Cunningham Pier will draw inspiration from Sydney Harbour’s luxury waterfront residences through to Dubai’s sculptural pier-edge towers, blending architectural excellence with &nbsp;resort-style living, hospitality, and public amenity.&nbsp;

The concept, described as “Saint Moritz on the Sea”, is envisioned to include:&nbsp;

<ul>
	<li>Six-star hotel accommodation and services&nbsp;</li>
	<li>World-class restaurants, bars, and public spaces&nbsp;</li>
	<li>High-end residential offerings&nbsp;</li>
	<li>Entertainment and cultural venues&nbsp;</li>
	<li>Potential cruise ship port facilities, integrating Geelong into the global travel network&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

The transformative project aims to become a magnet for tourism, investment, and innovation, while &nbsp;ensuring continued public access and connection to Corio Bay’s pristine waterfront.&nbsp;

Cunningham Pier has been operated by Costa Property Group for more than 15 years, with the City of Greater Geelong expressing strong support for strategic commercial partnerships that unlock &nbsp;tourism-led economic development for the region’s fast-growing population.&nbsp;

Tim Gurner, Founder &amp; Executive Chairman, GURNER™ Group, said the project is a "once-in-a-generation opportunity to put Geelong on the global map," adding that their version will be of what icons like the Opera House, Story Bridge or Empire State Building have done for other great cities.

“We’ll be working hand-in-hand with the Mayor, Council, the local community, and State Government to deliver something truly iconic that positions Geelong on the world stage. This project brings together everything we’ve built our brand on – world-class design, hospitality, &nbsp;lifestyle, and experience – all in one place. From six-star hotels and restaurants to the possibility of a &nbsp;new cruise ship terminal and luxury residences, the vision is extraordinary.”&nbsp;

City of Greater Geelong&nbsp;Mayor Stretch Kontelj said he welcomes the "bold and inspiring vision reimagining our beloved Cunnigham Pier as a global destination."

"This ambitious plan and the opening of Nyaal Banyul Geelong Convention and Event Centre next year have the potential to take our already world-class waterfront to even greater heights.”

Sydney Harbour, Dubai pier towers, to influence Gurner's Cunningham Pier, Geelong development

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bates-smart">Bates Smart</a> is one of Melbourne's longest standing architecture firms.

Founded in Melbourne in 1853 by Joseph Reed, the firm began as Reed &amp; Barnes and has evolved through various partnerships before adopting the Bates Smart name in the 20th century. With a continuous presence spanning more than 170 years, the practice has played a pivotal role in shaping Melbourne’s architectural identity.

In the 19th century, Bates Smart designed several of Melbourne’s enduring landmarks, including the Royal Exhibition Building (1880), a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the Melbourne Town Hall. The firm’s influence continued into the 20th century with notable works such as Ici House (1958), considered Melbourne’s first modern skyscraper and a milestone in post-war Australian architecture.

One of their landmark designs was&nbsp;The First Church of Christ, Scientist, at 336-340 St Kilda Road. The building, which is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register, was designed by Bates, Peeble and Smart with construction completed in 1922. Architecturally, the building is significant as a rare example of early twentieth century classicism applied to a religious building. Historically, the building is significant as the first church of the Christian Science movement.

Melbourne developer Time &amp; Place decided to bring Bates Smart back to the area to design their next residential apartment project, Park Modern.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138453 project_image_fid=2138]

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/park-modern-south-melbourne-1-middleton-lane-south-melbourne-vic-3205">Park Modern</a>, on one of the largest island sites on the Melbourne CBD fringe, bordered by Dorcas Street, Wells Street, and Middleton Lane, will comprise two sculptural towers. It is being positioned as a design-forward response to evolving owner-occupier preferences in the Domain precinct.

Tim Price, Director at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/time-place">Time &amp; Place</a>, says&nbsp;Bates Smart have got a footprint on this city, probably like no other architect.

"It’s a really nice kind of next chapter story, that they created from a design perspective so long ago," Price told Apartments.com.au.

Park Modern will be the third time Time &amp; Place has worked with Bates Smart, having successfully designed and delivered Collins House and Opera on St Kilda Road together.

The brief focused on creating a built form that would feel contextually appropriate while offering a contemporary evolution of inner-city apartment living.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138453 project_image_fid=2137]

The focus for Park Modern is squarely on owner-occupiers.

“It’s not always about downsizing," Price says.

"Sometimes it’s just about creating a space which is easily maintained, lock up and leave, reflecting people’s aspirations, whether they’re entertainers, big dining room spaces, big open terraces, they’re important parts of any design consideration.”

The building includes a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments, as well as penthouses, with layouts and floor plans designed to suit a broad demographic. The architecture has been shaped to capture&nbsp;view corridors to the Botanic Gardens, Port Phillip Bay and the CBD skyline.

Each apartment has been oriented to maximise natural light and provide a clear outlook, elements often cited by owner-occupiers as key criteria.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138453 project_image_fid=351806]

Rather than defaulting to a generic luxury offering, the amenity strategy at Park Modern reflects specific insights into how residents want to live. The ground floor will include co-working areas, wellness facilities, and a concierge-led lobby that blends indoor and outdoor design cues.

“Wellness has become a more thoughtful consideration, not just gyms or lap pools, but things like magnesium plunge pools, saunas, daybeds, and studio spaces for Pilates and the regular cardio workout,” says Price.

One notable inclusion is a substantial porte-cochère, a covered vehicle drop-off zone integrated into the site plan. It’s a feature rarely seen in inner-urban developments and speaks to the team’s emphasis on ease of arrival and departure for residents and guests.

A display suite for Park Modern is now open by appointment, giving prospective buyers an early look at the project.

100 years on, Bates Smart returns to South Melbourne's Domain Precinct to design Park Modern

How Sekisui House Australia's West Village has transformed Brisbane's West End Precinct

The final apartments in the penultimate towers of Sekisui's West End masterplan, West Village, are now being sold.

The Allere Collection, which comprises two side-by-side towers Uno and Duno, is over 85 per cent sold. They'll be joining a thriving, well established community when they're completed in late 2024, a decade after Sekisui started the award-winning redevelopment of the much-loved Peters Ice Cream factory site.

The Allere Collection has proven popular with a variety of demographics, from first home buyers, pet owners, and young and established families, given the Mollison Street project sits within close proximity to seven schools.

Both Uno and Duo have been designed by renowned architecture firm Rothelowman, and rise 20 storeys above the West End precinct.

Residents within the Allere Collection will also have the benefit of enjoying double the amenity, with shared access to both Uno and Duo rooftops.

Crowning the Uno tower will be a pool, enclosed dining space, seating areas, a vegetable garden, conservatory, as well as ‘Paw Pavilion’ - an off leash dog space on the rooftop.&nbsp;Topping Duo will be a pool, heated spa, enclosed lounge room and dining space, along with outdoor barbecue facilities and sun loungers.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=207148]

The Allere Collection offers an incredibly connected lifestyle for it's resident which not many other projects can offer in the whole of Brisbane, given a large part of the extensive 2.6 hectare masterplan is dedicated to creating a connected village vibe.

A full-line Woolworths supermarket ensures easy access to daily essentials, while Harris Farm Markets provides fresh produce. Goodlife Health Clubs cater to fitness needs, and a chemist and medical centre offer comprehensive healthcare services.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204843]

There's over 25 food and lifestyle providers which offers a diverse range of dining and leisure options.

Art and culture enthusiasts will find delight in the on-site Metro Arts Theatre Precinct, hosting regular performances by renowned organisations such as Opera Queensland and Queensland's Chamber Orchestra, Camerata.&nbsp;

Nestled within a living heritage village that pays homage to the iconic Peters Ice Cream and Cone Factories, The Allere Collection embraces its rich history. Built in 1920, the factories have become an integral part of the village's charm and character.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204874]

Sustainability lies at the core of The Allere Collection's ethos. The development incorporates various initiatives to minimise its environmental impact and create a harmonious living space.&nbsp;As a 6-star Green Star Community, it sets a new standard for environmentally friendly living. Tinted windows help reduce heat gain and energy bills, while rainwater tanks and plumbing for a greywater recycling system contribute to water conservation. A 21kW solar PV system generates renewable energy for communal areas, reducing the community's reliance on traditional power sources.

Expansive green spaces provide residents with a connection to nature, while sustainability measures are integrated throughout the community. The Walk Score of 99 out of 100 signifies the high level of walkability and accessibility.

Sekisui's The Allere Collection in West Village hits 85% sold

Brisbane's off the plan property market led the country in sales comparative to how much stock is on the market, according to Urbis' Apartment Essentials National Snapshot Q1 2023.

Brisbane just edged the Gold Coast having the highest sales rate as a percentage. Nearly a fifth of apartments that were on the market sold in Q1.

Sydney and Perth were just below the 10 per cent mark, while Melbourne had the largest gap with just five per cent of apartments selling compared to how many are on the market.

<img alt="Brisbane Q1" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="81fa8299-1584-4fda-8cb9-b0889a7f574e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-06-15%20at%208.33.22%20am.png?VersionId=WWA34iAicIoYMjKHpZMnlSfnL_cyK3cM" />

Brisbane was pushed to the highest sales to supply rate due to two projects in Toowong.

Mosaic's The Prescott, which is only in its presale phase, secured 94 sales in Q1 with an average sale price of $973,000. There's only 100 apartments in the Lissner Street development.

The next best performer was Monarch Residences, the recently launched project by Don O'Rorke's Consolidated Properties. They scored 75 sales in Q1, at an average sale price of just over $1 million. Nine apartments in the development have sold for over $4 million.

They've got 224 apartments across the two towers, which Hutchinsons Builders have just started constructing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=113455 project_image_fid=211492]

James MacGinley, Head of Residential at Consolidated Properties Group, said the key to selling in the current market is really understanding the buyer demographic.

"At Monarch Residences, we have split our penthouse collection between the top floors and the lower level along the riverfront.

"This decision was made to appeal to two distinct groups of buyers - those wanting a traditional penthouse with horizon views, and those looking for a ‘river home’ with the benefits of apartment living."

Mirvac's Isle Waterfront project in Newstead, which is currently under construction, secured 21 sales in Q3 as it approaches sell out. The ASX-listed developer has sold over 110 apartments to date, at an average sale price of $1.261 million.

<img alt="Brisbane Q1" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fe488c7b-90e0-4a06-b2be-25eec93ab903" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-06-15%20at%208.36.04%20am.png?VersionId=sgv7Ic3oxTsVdoSlngtQb_znnMqwWMWz" />

Sekisui's giant West Village masterplan has performed consistently well ever since the national developer started the masterplan over seven years ago.

Their sixth and seventh tower in the masterplan, Uno and Duo, which make up the Allere Collection both saw continued sales through Q1 2023. Uno, which has 94 apartments, secured 19 sales in the first three months of the year, and it's neighbouring Uno tower had 16 sales.

Both buildings, designed by Rothelowman, are under construction and have just over 20 apartments left in each. Two-bedroom apartments are still available, priced from $860,000.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=207148]

One of the five-bedroom penthouses made headlines earlier this year when it sold for $7,016,000, a record for West End.

The Allere Collection will be the penultimate opportunity to buy into the thriving $1.1 billion community. Only one more tower will rise from the West End precinct, Callista on Park, which will comprise 74 three and four-bedroom apartments.

Since kicking off the development of West Village seven years ago, on the site of the landmark Peter's Ice Cream factory, the $1.2 billion village has&nbsp;won more than 50 awards, the most recent being the&nbsp;internationally renowned 2022 ULI APAC Award for Excellence.

Nestled in the heart of Brisbane's West End, a community steeped in rich history awaits, with Sekisui House Australia in the process of delivering their $1.1 billion precinct, West Village.

As West Village continues to evolve and grow, it is set to become a thriving hub that seamlessly integrates the past with the present, integrates residential, commercial, retail, and recreational spaces.

At the centre of this 2.6-hectare precinct lie the heritage-listed former Peters Ice Cream factories, a testament to the area's industrial past. West Village will deliver up to 1,200 residences during it's construction phase, along with 20,000 sqm of commercial space, an 18,000 sqm retail precinct, and one hectare of open parklands and heritage laneways.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=207148]

Community is at the heart of West Village, and the precinct comes alive with a variety of events throughout the year. From the annual Brisbane Ice Cream Festival that pays homage to the site's ice cream-making heritage to pizza and pinot evenings, gardening workshops, and fashion events, there's always something abuzz in the village.&nbsp;

Within West Village, residents have access to a range of amenities designed to enhance their everyday lives.

West Village: Living heritage village in Brisbane's West End

Sekisui House Australia has just launched a new series within the group’s masterplanned West End precinct, West Village.

Located within the recently launched Allere Collection residences, the Sustainability Series offers a considered and sustainable lifestyle with prices starting from $485,000*.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=205971]

The residences include sustainable features such as hardwood or recycled timber benches, exposed joinery, partially exposed ceilings, select environmentally preferred timber-look flooring, and induction cooktops.

The Allere Collection residents have the benefit of double the amenity with two shared rooftop spaces, where incredible pools, spas, off-leash dog space ‘Paw Pavilion’, and sunset views await.

While the residences within the Sustainability Series don’t come with a car space, residents will have access to two Tesla vehicles to accommodate, in partnership with OhmieGo - although who needs a car when West End achieves a walk score of 99/100.

Situated in arguably one of Brisbane’s most forward thinking and sustainable developments, the new release compliments Sekisui’s vision for the already green precinct.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=205973]

The Six Star Green Star Community, which is Australia’s highest rating for a master planned precinct, boasts a number of sustainable and environmentally friendly practices, including an onsite grey water treatment plant. The grey water (from laundries and showers) is sourced from two of the precinct’s residential buildings, with the treated water then used to irrigate gardens and for flushing toilets in the retail centre.

Food waste measures are also in place across the site, with up to 85 percent of the food waste from the precinct reused or composted.&nbsp;

West Village dining outlets are also encouraged to use take away packaging which can be composted or recycled, with the food waste and compostable packaging from West Village stores and dining outlets then collected and processed through the onsite organic waste pulping system. The Pulpmaster Australia system converts organic materials into soils and fertilisers, minimising the use of water and power during the process.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=205972]

The precinct will also have the ability to generate some of its own energy from the sun, with a 23.5 kW solar power system on the roof of The Eaves building near The Common providing some of the power to light the public spaces, while solar panels on residential buildings provide power to shared building services.

In an urban environment like Brisbane, a “heat island” can be created when materials such as bitumen and concrete absorb and hold the sun’s heat rather than reflect it. To counteract the heat island effect at West Village, around half the site plan is covered with materials which reflect heat, water features or green spaces. Around 100 mature trees and more than 15,000 plants are growing at West Village.

Public bike racks have also been located in several locations at West Village with 1600 set to be available on completion of the project. Four electric vehicle charging stations and a GoGet car share service are located on Basement 1 in the public West Village carpark, which boasts 420 public car parks.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204847]

It's flaura and fauna at West Village.&nbsp;

The Richmond Birdwing Butterfly Vine, species Pararistolochia praevenosa, is grown in several locations at West Village, with the vine being the natural food source for the Richmond Birdwing butterfly, species Ornithoptera richmondia.

The Richmond Birdwing is the largest subtropical Australian butterfly and now unfortunately a vulnerable species. The idea behind growing the Butterfly Vine at West Village is to help increase the population of the butterfly.

West Village is also home to up to seven bee hives, including native stingless bees and European honey bees. The bees help to pollinate the 3,000 native plants at West Village, while playing a role in supporting biodiversity (lots of different types of plants, animals and micro-organisms) in the direct local urban environment.

West Village partners with Brisbane social enterprise group Bee One Third, with their apiarists (bee keepers) utilising traditional beekeeping methods to care for the bee population within the precinct.

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=114215]

Forming part of the Allere Collection, the Sustainability Series will deliver just 12 pared back, humble and flexible residences, with prices starting from $485,000*. 

Sekisui go green with Sustainability Series in Allere, West Village project

Sekisui House Australia has launched its latest stage in its multi-award winning West Village precinct, West End.

The two new vertical communities, Uno and Duo, are part of the Allere Collection, which follows the successful sell-out of the previous building, Altura, part of the 2.6 hectare mixed-use precinct which has revitalized the West End area.

The restoration of the heritage 1920’s Peters Ice Cream Factories lies in the heart of the precinct, which, as well as the surrounding heritage buildings, have now been redeveloped and converted into retail, restaurants. and a health and wellness hub.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204874]

Fronting Mollison Street, Uno and Duo will both rise 20 storeys and bring over 200 residences designed by renowned architects Rothelowman, with Uno and Duo set to be constructed at the same time. The pet friendly vertical communities have been designed to nourish the soul and create a sense of belonging.

Designed with a distinctive sculptured tectonic wall, Uno will comprise 94 residences, along with two levels of commercial space.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204872]

Emblazoned with subtropical greenery which projects outwardly through the generously-sized balconies to the north and south, integrated landscaping will also cover the terraces on the upper levels.&nbsp;

Duo is set to be built above the West Village retail precinct, providing future residents with easy access to everything they need. Duo will home 109 apartments with a bold and classic take on the quintessential Queenslander. There will be a mix of one, two, three, four and five-bedroom residences across the towers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=204852]

Residents within the Allere Collection will also have the benefit of enjoying double the amenity, with shared access to both Uno and Duo rooftops.

Crowning the Uno tower will be a pool, enclosed dining space, seating areas, a vegetable garden, conservatory, as well as ‘Paw Pavilion’ - an off leash dog space on the rooftop.&nbsp;Topping Duo will be a pool, heated spa, enclosed lounge room and dining space, along with outdoor barbecue facilities and sun loungers.&nbsp;

West Village, which has been under development since 2016, was recently awarded the internationally renowned 2022 ULI APAC Award for Excellence, with the award adding to the long list the project has amassed over its three short years. It's now racked up more than 40 awards so far.

Sustainability is a key focus at the precinct, with West Village receiving the highest sustainability rating for a master-planned community in Australia, earning World Leadership status with a 6 Star Green Star Communities rating.

Each of the images above are renders of UNO and DUO.

Sekisui launch new stage in West Village, South Brisbane's West End masterplan precinct

The sheer size and clever configuration of Sekisui House Australia&#39;s&nbsp;exclusive penthouse collection in their South Bri​sbane, West Village precinct, puts them&nbsp;among some of the best penthouses the Queensland capital has to offer.

The latest release, crowning the luxury wellness-focused Altura in the vibrant $1.1 billion heritage precinct, will see just two incredible&nbsp;penthouses on level 22, each offering sweeping views back to the CBD, available to buyers.

Altura is the tallest residential offering in the 2.6 hectare masterplan, which Sekisui House Australia began developing&nbsp;in 2016, with the&nbsp;heritage-listed former Peters Ice Cream &amp; Cone factories which lie at the centre of the village.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106960 project_image_fid=170168]

The penthouses designs have been&nbsp;inspired by neuroarchitecture, with an emphasis on interior comfort and biophilic response, and an understanding of the modern family lifestyle.

The most impressive penthouse&nbsp;has an extensive 384 sqm internal floorplate.

Featuring five bedrooms, five living areas, two studies, and a media room. There&#39;s a further 90 sqm of balconies, one off the main open plan kitchen living and dining area, complete with its own outdoor barbecue space, another accessible off two of the bedrooms, and a private third balcony opening from the master bedroom.

<a href="/buildings/altura-west-village-west-end-111-mollison-street-west-end-qld-4101"><img alt="" height="896" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/level22_viewline.jpg" width="1851" /></a> 
The view of the Brisbane skyline from level 22. Image supplied

The master bedroom is more than just a bedroom. It&#39;s more reminiscent of a luxury hotel-style suite. Set quietly at the end of a long corridor away from the main living spaces, the master has its own ensuite with freestanding bath, separate shower, and double vanity, as well as a dressing room-style walk in wardrobe and its own home office room.

That&#39;s one of three dedicated home office areas in the apartment, with carefully located studies&nbsp;dotted throughout.

The kitchen features its own butler&#39;s pantry and luxury stone island benchtops. A second living area is cleverly broken up from the main space by a two-way, floor-to-ceiling fireplace. There&#39;s also four parking spaces that come with the penthouse.

<a href="/buildings/altura-west-village-west-end-111-mollison-street-west-end-qld-4101"><img alt="" height="690" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-02-16_at_12.15.43_pm.png" width="1375" /></a>

Megan Barron, Project Executive Director of&nbsp;Sales, Marketing and Public Relations at&nbsp;West Village, said the latest penthouse collection is the largest and most impressive release to date.

&ldquo;This really is a rare opportunity to live in a true heritage listed precinct which is just 800m from the Brisbane CBD,&quot; Barron said.

&quot;The extensive balcony space allows families of any size to unwind while watching the sunset over the city and the river.&quot;

Barron said people have been moving to&nbsp; West Village because they want to be surrounded by a vibrant community with a thriving retail and dining precinct on their doorstep.

&quot;Altura residences sold out in record time &ndash; a strong endorsement of our community and the lifestyle West Village offers,&quot; Barron added.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106960 project_image_fid=185878]

West End is tied as the sixth most walkable neighbourhood in Brisbane, boasting a walk score of 88, along with the blue-chip suburbs of Teneriffe and New Farm.&nbsp;West Village boasts a premium walk score of 99, making it one of the most desirable places to live in West End.

The Altura building&nbsp;was designed with a focus&nbsp;on residents&#39;&nbsp;health and wellbeing, with the communal rooftop &#39;Wellness Regeneration Zone&#39; a particular highlight.

Not just a communal rooftop with amenity,&nbsp;Matthew Durning, Principle Landscape Architect at RPS Landscaping, said there&#39;s different elements that relate to the senses, especially in the vegetation.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106960 project_image_fid=190673]

&quot;Rosemary and lavender plants heighten the smell as residents move out to the rooftop,&quot; Durning says.

The aim of the rooftop, aptly titled the Wellness Regeneration Zone, was to create a space for residents to unwind both physically and mentally.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106960 project_image_fid=190674]

There will be a&nbsp;fitness infinity pool as well as a heated magnesium plunge pool, a detoxifying sauna,&nbsp;sunken fire pit spaces and an outdoor kitchen.

When construction is completed, forecast for early 2023, there will be weekly rooftop yoga and tai chi classes on the roof, surrounded by the 600 sqm of lush landscaped gardens.

Sales are proceeding at Altura, a 22-storey apartment tower where more than 70 of the initial 147 apartments on offer sold on the first day on the market last year.

<blockquote>
“Parramatta truly suits our hallmark for rolling out quality developments in prime locations that can cater to the local needs of the residents and the success West Village has experienced confirms the prediction that Parramatta is set to become the new CBD.”
</blockquote>

Yap Foo Leong, CEO of EcoWorld International Australia

Situated in the heart of Parramatta’s growing urban village West Village sits alongside skyscrapers such as Altitude, Skyrise and the soon to be completed 4 Parramatta Square. The enviable location has been a hit among buyers who have been drawn to the area due to the prolific infrastructure projects set to commence within the area to cater to Parramatta’s growing population.

West Village is EcoWorld International’s first Australian project, with Yarra One in Melbourne also currently under construction and set to top out by February 2020.
