Privately-held Brisbane developer Lantona has lodged plans for a mixed-use development in the inner-city suburb of Auchenflower

Led by founder Andrew Hanna, Lantona closely partners with Brisbane Builders to deliver each project, with the collaboration years in the making due to Hanna’s long-term friendship with Brisbane Builders founder, Jason Habchi. 

The group’s latest project stays true to Lantona’s vision: which where you build is important. 

“Typically we choose locations that allow residents a variety of outdoor and leisure pursuits, which is why you’ll find our projects in some of Brisbane’s most dynamic suburbs,” Lantona says.

The project will be constructed across a unique three-frontage, 1537 sqm site at 131-137 Eagle Terrace, near to Auchenflower Station, the Brisbane River, Wesley Hospital, and a number of parks and green open spaces.

Designed by Ellivo Architects, 36 apartments will be spread across a 12-storey building, dominated by three-bedroom apartments.

A shorter seven-storey commercial building will also be constructed on the site, complete with space for a cafe across the ground floor. 

The podium levels of the proposed building will be wrapped in gentle, flowing ribbons, which define the balconies, while the upper portion of the building changes language, with vertical angled blades to delineate the upper facade, while also providing privacy and sun shading in addition to maximising viewpoints. 

A combination of glass, aluminium, steel and concrete materials has created a raw and low maintenance development, which is softened with layered greenery, across the ground plane and within the facade and balcony edges. 

Crowning the residential building will be a suite of resort-inspired amenities, including a leisure deck, a pool, barbecue facilities and seating, with the communal open space designed as a space for resident’s to relax and take in the surrounding views. 

Further communal space will be provided in the lower levels of the building, with a balcony which will wrap the entirety of the building, creating a continuous outdoor space, providing a multitude of outlooks and outdoor space. 

Lantona’s proposal comes off the back of the group’s Woody Point development in the Moreton Bay region, which launched to the market in September this year. 

Located at 1 Lilla Street, Echo on the Bay will deliver just 10 apartments to the coastal suburb upon completion, with the architecturally designed residences to set a new standard for bayside living. 

Situated on a commanding oceanfront, cliff-top location, the project features a selection of high-quality finishes and fixtures, with floorplans designed to make the most of the coastal locale.
