Casa Beach - 99-101 Old Burleigh Road, Broadbeach

The burgeoning Broadbeach is set for another high-rise apartment development, as developers continue to try and keep up with the high demand for luxury product in the area.

Plans have been filed by Ferro Chow Architects&nbsp;for a&nbsp;46-level tower at 99-101 Old Burleigh Road,&nbsp;on the corner of Armrick Avenue and across the road from Broadbeach Park.

The development will only have 59 apartments, with half-floor apartments taking up the first half of the tower, then full-floor apartments from there up.

Marco Ferro said the Broadbeach design was&nbsp;inspired by the Norfolk pine trees that line Old Burleigh Road.

&quot;The dark bark texture of the tree trunks give this particular side of Broadbeach a characteristic that set it aside from the rest of the region,&quot; Ferro said.

The smallest apartments have three bedrooms and a multi-purpose room. There are 36 three-bedroom apartments, 22 four-bedroom apartments, and a special penthouse toward the point end of the building.

The third level podium will have the half of the resident amenity. There&#39;s a barbecue kitchen and dining, an adjoining private dining area with a bar, extensive seating across a lower and upper deck, a gym, and an infinity edge pool with day beds.

From level four upwards will be two apartments per floor to level 22, where from there are just whole-floor apartments.

The first level is dedicated to entertaining, with the main kitchen living and dining space, two balconies, one with an outdoor kitchen and plunge pool, a home office, with its own butlers pantry, and a home theatre room, with sliding doors hiding a popcorn maker.

Upstairs is the four bedrooms, all with ensuites. The master has a walk in.

Currently on the 1,283 sqm site is Casa Del Mar, an original three-storey walk up of just five apartments.

&quot;The client has catered for a wider pool of owner-occupiers, offering different price points&nbsp;with half-floor and whole-floor apartments,&quot; Ferro said, adding that the views across Broadbeach will never be built out.

The site is next door to the recently approved tower from the Brisbane-based Turrisi Properties, who are set to develop a 22-level, 84-apartment tower designed by&nbsp;Rothelowman, who were aiming for a&nbsp;mid-century, tropical modernist-style building.

Ferro Chow&#39;s approach to the 99-101 Old Burleigh Road&nbsp;was to use the&nbsp;Biophillic Design principles.

&quot;As a consequence of being city dwellers, we become more and more out of touch with nature,&quot; the architecture firm noted.

&quot;Biophilic Design is a response to that detachment, aiming to restore the connectivity our society once had with the natural environment.

&quot;Connectivity with the nature is our birthright. In biophilic principles, this connection must not only be reestablished, but also sustained. This is where human-made design interventions come into play, as they are needed to facilitate our relationships with nature and also each other.

&quot;Through the emphasis of the natural features of the site, introduction of abundant natural light, and the fostering of human relationships, a building becomes a hub for engagement.&quot;

Ferro Chow, who was a finalist at the&nbsp;UDIA QLD Awards&nbsp;for London, its West End, Brisbane apartment development,&nbsp;are also behind the unique design of Greenwich, the Chevron Island development from Ention Properties.

The striking design was inspired by Manhattan&#39;s Flatiron building. The penthouse recently just sold for a record $4.25 million.
