The high-end South East Queensland developer, Forme, has been given the green light for its next luxury Gold Coast apartment development.

Dubbed Sea, the boutique apartment building follows the rhythms and designs as their sold-out Goodwin Terrace projects Norfolk and Luna.

Demand was so high for Norfolk, which recently settled as one of the Gold Coast's most expensive apartment developments, that Forme boss David Calvisi put together the same team to create a similar-style project slightly further south on The Esplanade.

He had Koichi Takada again handle the architecture. His designs for Norfolk made the building a hit on Instagram. The curved facade even became one of the famous Bondi-based Aquabumps prints.

Interiors have again been directed by the Melbourne-based interior design firm Mim Design, headed by the interior design queen Mim Fanning. The design approach came from the coastline just across the road.

Sea comprises half-floor apartments, each spanning 240 sqm and homing three bedrooms, three bathrooms, two car spaces and a panorama of beach, ocean, skyline and headland views.

Full-floor apartments of around 480 sqm are configured to include three ensuited bedrooms, a multi-purpose room, media lounge, home gym, walk-in wine display bar, and a lifestyle space with a fireplace and butler’s pantry.

Residents are afforded exclusive access to an array of in-house amenities including a pool, sauna, ice baths, gymnasium and pilates studio, and an alfresco dining terrace serviced by an integrated barbecue kitchen ensconced by idyllic gardens.

Sea is crowned by a 790 sqm, two-level penthouse.

Forme director David Calvisi said Sea translates to a sophisticated statement of inspired design, refined social amenity and considered lifestyle opportunities to become an outstanding destination in its own right.

“Sea is the very essence of beachfront living embracing our coastal climate, contemporary comforts and relaxed vibe in an unequivocally refined, intuitive and practical composition for the astute purchaser.”

Sea is set to launch in December, with a number of apartments already secured in the pre-release phase through JLE Projects.
