whose brief from Mirvac was to create
a recreation facility ‘on par with the
best in Brisbane’. In setting a high bar
for resident amenity there was tacit
acknowledgement that the new wave
of Mirvac apartments in the CBD
had luxury inclusions rarely seen in
masterplanned communities.
“We really wanted to provide a facility
that is well used and loved by the
residents,” says Mr Volpato. “There
is a wonderful synthesis between the
natural landscape and the built form
with strong architectural elements
softened by lush landscaping.
“This creates a variety of unique
spaces that feel like a natural
extension of the neighbouring eco
area, the two spaces seem to bleed
into each other. It feels like you
are surrounded by parkland while
enjoying luxurious facilities.”
The resort style pool is the
centrepiece of the Club, extending
out to the eco area edge. A barbecue
and teppanyaki grill encourage
gatherings centred on good food and
good company while a generous lawn
sets the scene for sunbathing or a play
space for children.
