Lendlease unveil next level health and wellness amenities at One Sydney Harbour, Barangaroo
Listed developer Lendlease has unveiled Australia’s most opulent hotel-style amenities at its highly anticipated, once-in-a-generation residential development One Sydney Harbour in Barangaroo.
Beyond simple shared residential amenities, One Sydney Harbour’s three towers combine exclusive residents’ wellness and social spaces with private retreats and experiences befitting one of Sydney’s most coveted addresses.
Lendlease has partnered with architect Renzo Piano (Renzo Piano Building Workshop) and interior architect Daniel Goldberg (State of Craft) to create The Club, which features sophisticated health and wellness spaces, indoor and outdoor pools, social terraces, and private rooms to entertain.
The Club is made up of six distinct zones incorporating The Pool House, The Garden Terrace, The Sanctuary, The Pool Deck, The Club House and The Sky Terrace, each with their own distinct amenities.
Inspired by the Blue Mountains’ lush vegetation and private rock pools, The Pool House is awash in deep green marble to create a temple-like space that seems almost carved from crystalline green rock.
Daniel Goldberg of State Craft says research shows that different colours can evoke different psychological and physiological responses, which can influence our overall wellness.
“We chose this shade of green for The Pool House for its ability to promote a sense of balance and harmony. It symbolises nature and growth, is soothing on the eyes and can help reduce anxiety and stress.”
Illuminated from within and set amid a glazed façade that runs along three sides overlooking Hickson Park, the crystal-clear water creates the illusion of swimming in nature. Classic columns, ceiling blades and statement artwork heighten the sense of grandeur while palm fronds, cane and linen furniture create a tropical oasis.
Residents can access The Spa, The Sauna and The Steam Room directly from The Pool House via a natural stone clad freestanding wall.
One Sydney Harbour’s Outdoor Garden Terrace on Level 2 is a private garden conceived by Renzo Piano as a space where residents can relax and find respite from the busy CBD. Visible from the apartments above, it overlooks Watermans Cove and features impressive views across the harbour towards Balmain and Pyrmont framed by a lush mix of native and exotic plantings that link it with the surrounding terraces and podiums.
The Sanctuary is an open-plan temple to self-care. It features high-energy workout spaces, two wellness rooms, for treatments and massages, and a multi-functional studio realised in light timber and subtle, integrated lighting for yoga and pilates classes, complete with equipment. A separate area for beauty treatments, hair and makeup means residents can book their self-care treatments close to home.
The Renzo Piano-designed Pool Deck is a tranquil space surrounded by foliage with uninterrupted views over Waterman’s Cove. Complete with rows of sun loungers a la the French Riviera or straight out of a Hollywood movie, it promises to be one of Sydney’s most chic places to soak up Sydney’s glorious rays.
The Sky Terrace is inspired by a Mediterranean olive grove conceptualised by Renzo Piano Building Workshop as a breakout space high above the harbour, where residents can enjoy BBQs and entertain against a backdrop of stunning CBD views.
In addition to One Sydney Harbour’s health and wellness amenities, many opportunities exist for entertaining in 'The Club’. The Orangery is inspired by European 18th-century greenhouses with a stone floor, rattan-lined ceiling, and adjoining veranda.
Three linked spaces; The Billiards Room, The Wine Gallery and The Blue Room, are serviced by a commercial kitchen nearby simply dubbed The Kitchen.
The Billiards Room has a central pool table that converts to a table for cocktails with a custom lid.
Next door is The Wine Gallery that features extensive copper and native Australian timber. The Blue Room is a more intimate private dining space with a feature blue leather-clad wall for wine tastings and entertaining for up to 10 guests.
One Sydney Harbour’s tallest tower, Residences One, is now complete with first residents moving in. Residences Two and Waterman’s Residences will be complete this year.
