BDA Architecture

Local property developers BluePoint Property have once again made their mark on the coveted Palm Beach real estate landscape with their latest residential venture – Seventh Terraces.&nbsp;

The project emerges as the third addition to the group's Palm Beach portfolio, following the 34-apartment East Palm Beach and the 63-apartment SEA Palm Beach.

Seventh Terraces stands as a distinctive boutique project, comprising seven three-level beach homes that face the east, maximising ocean views from private rooftops.

A refined coastal aesthetic defines the homes, featuring upscale finishes that merge beachside living with luxury. Two-car garages, spacious storage areas, and private ground floor courtyards contribute to the allure of the beach houses.

Designed by BDA Architecture, the development's main objective was to diversify housing options within the precinct. The seven townhouses are interwoven amongst apartments and detached residences, fostering a sense of community while retaining individuality. The adaptability shines through in the design's integration of private home-based offices, all while maintaining the privacy of separate entrances and courtyards for neighbouring dwellings.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89730 project_image_fid=186718]

The interiors of the beach houses exude coastal elegance, characterised by generous open-plan living and dining spaces that seamlessly transition to east-facing balconies. Expansive full-height glazing saturates the interiors with natural light, enhancing the connection to the picturesque surroundings, while a palette of light and stone, engineered timber, oak feature joinery, and brushed nickel accents contributes to an overall sophisticated ambiance that resonates with the iconic beachside setting.

The pièce de résistance of Seventh Terraces is the rooftop terraces. Positioned to capture the easterly panorama, the terraces forge a link with the Pacific Ocean, presenting a serene and awe-inspiring backdrop for residents.

Location-wise, Seventh Terraces enjoys an enviable position approximately 200 metres from the beach in the heart of Palm Beach. Nestled amongst a plethora of Gold Coast's premier dining establishments and cafes, the development is further enhanced by its proximity to the world-renowned Tallebudgera Creek to the north and Currumbin Creek to the south, both acclaimed as top-tier swimming destinations within Australia.

The development's central location aligns with Palm Beach's vibrant spirit, with the recently revamped Pavilions Shopping Centre and an array of boutique shops, medical facilities, and wellness centres all conveniently accessible to residents.

Inside BluePoint Property's third Palm Beach development, Seventh Terraces

The latest apartment development application to the Gold Coast City Council&#39;s desk has been designed by the local architecture firm BDA with inspiration taken from modern racing yachts with foiled keels.

A Sydney-based development has lodged plans for a 15-level apartment project at&nbsp;2919 Gold Coast Highway, Surfers Paradise, which will home just 35 apartments.

The majority of those will be three-bedroom apartments, with a handful of two-bedroom apartments located on the lower levels.

In their design statement, BDA noted that the towers form is a product of the changing floor plates, with the overall mass of the building reducing, the higher it gets.

&quot;This in turn creates an interesting, slender tower and will create visual interest from the surrounding context,&quot; the architecture firm suggested.

There will be three apartments per floor on the lower levels, and two per floor on the upper levels.

The rooftop homes the communal recreation facilities, which include&nbsp;an outdoor BBQ and dining area, residents lounge, lap pool, gym and lounging&nbsp;areas.

&quot;All apartments feature large, north facing balconies that act as outdoor rooms to encourage indoor/outdoor interaction,&quot; BDA say.

A small cafe will sit on the ground level, with exposure to the busy Gold Coast Highway to the west.

The Gold Coast Highway, which runs all the way down the Gold Coast from Mermaid Beach to Bilinga with apartment projects on both the beach side and the west side, has been busy in recent months.

Tim&nbsp;Gurner, alongside financier MaxCap Group, secured&nbsp;1929 Gold Coast Highway in&nbsp;Burleigh Heads, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/qld/gurner-secures-burleigh-heads-apartment-development-site-plans-22-level-luxury-tower">with plans to create a 22-level luxury tower</a>.&nbsp;

The $120 million project, which will see 80 apartments created and high end amenity located on the rooftop, will be designed by&nbsp;Gurner&#39;s go-to architect, Warren &amp; Mahoney, who handles all of&nbsp;Gurner&#39;s projects both in Melbourne and on the Gold Coast.

Just up the road, the&nbsp;innovative developer FORME is also set to produce another high quality project,&nbsp;having secured the site behind their Burleigh Heads apartment project, Sea.

BDA noted that the towers form is a product of the changing floor plates, with the overall mass of the building reducing, the higher it gets.

New Surfers Paradise apartment tower designed inspired by yachts

Plans have been submitted to the Gold Coast City Council for a&nbsp;new residential apartment development in Palm Beach.

The boutique project at 1245 Gold Coast Highway, dubbed Aqualina, has been lodged by the Sydney-based development firm Emicon, ran by the Saab family.

Aqualina is&nbsp;Emicon&#39;s first project on the Gold Coast, and the first outside of New South Wales. They&#39;ve previously created apartment projects in Parramatta&nbsp;and Umina Beach on the Central Coast, with a number of projects in the pipeline across Sydney.

Emicon was incorporated in November 1994. Prior to this the company had been operating under its previous name of E &amp; G Saab Constructions for over 20 years.

The Gold Coast tower, designed by BDA Architecture, will only home three bedroom apartments, just two on each of its eight levels.

<img alt="" height="672" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/bda_gold_coast_highway.jpg" width="1200" />

The design was inspired by the natural environment of Palm Beach, from the soft edges of the water to the colours of the headlands, the BDA Architecture submission read 
 
&quot;Inspiration also comes from the curved edges of surfboards and the local architectural vernacular.

&quot;The architecture of the proposal is tailored to the coastal, sub-tropical location of Palm Beach.&quot;

The Design Summary

This project offers the opportunity to design an innovative architectural building and provide a higher residential density development along the beach-front of Palm Beach. The nine storey residential apartment building provides a sculptural fa&ccedil;ade which draws inspiration from the surrounding landscape environment.

<img alt="" height="728" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/bda_gc.jpg" width="1200" />

The Site

The site is located at the Northern End of Jefferson Lane, with access currently located off the Gold Coast Highway, between 15th &amp; 17th Avenue, Palm Beach. The site is 756m&sup2; in area and has unobstructed beach-front views. A two storey apartment block currently occupies the site. The site is bounded to the north by a two storey holiday home with a mix of 2, 3 and 9 storey residential buildings further to the north. The site is bound to the south by a two storey block of units and has close walking distance to public transport along the Gold Coast highway corridor.

Overview

Positioned along Jefferson Lane at Palm Beach, the project will enjoy the amenity of the beach-front and close proximity to shops, cafes and restaurants in the Palm Beach precinct. The site has unobstructed views to Burleigh Headland and south to Coolangatta coastline. This project offers high quality residential apartments with two units per floor level. The apartments provided are large liveable apartments that can cater for families and focus on maximising natural ventilation and natural light.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/gold-coast-qld?source_news_article_id=101611&amp;ref=news_body_link"><img alt="" height="797" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/gc_newest_tile_jpeg_3.jpg" width="1200" /></a>

All apartments are provided with large featured balconies that can be used as an outdoor living room. The two units per floor level provides a low density of only 16 apartments and 48 beds. The ground floor contains vehicle access from Jefferson Lane with visitor parking at grade with access to a two level basement car park, which provides car parking in excess of the planning code requirements. The remaining ground floor houses a clearly defined lobby space and community recreation facilities which contains a pool, pool deck and barbeque area.

Conclusion

This project offers high quality contemporary design that respects the surrounding environment. The imaginative and innovative detailing and built form demonstrates a positive outcome which will enhance the beach-front edge in the Palm Beach precinct.

The tower, designed by BDA Architecture, will only home three bedroom apartments, just two on each of its eight levels.

Mermaid Beach-based BDA Architecture continues to assume a greater presence in the Urban.com.au Project Database.

On the back of Broadbeach's <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/infinity-33-surf-parade-broadbeach">33 Surf Parade</a> which was <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/bassar-group-to-test-broadbeachs-luxury-apartment-market-depth">profiled during September</a> as one of Gold Coast's elite apartment towers in waiting, two further apartment developments have been lodged with City of Gold Coast in recent days. The applications cover sites in Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach.

In addition to affirming BDA Architecture's dominant position as the architect of choice on the Gold Coast, the latest applications are also a tick of confidence in resilience of the Gold Coast apartment market.

For Shintaku Australia Pty Ltd, the corner 2,075 square metre site is expected to include apartments and a mini restaurant hub.

360 square metres of ground floor space is spread across three separate restaurant spaces, each of which is framed by distinctive ribbed timber internal spaces.

56 apartments veiled by a distinctive facade sit above the active ground floor. The mix consists of 9 single, 27 double and 20 triple bedroom apartments are supplemented by a gym and yoga space.

In adjoining Surfers Paradise BDA Architecture is responsible for the design of 4 Holborow Close. For Advance Development and Investment Pty Ltd, the mid-rise apartment building has absolute frontage to Nerang River, and this is reflected in the apartment mix. 

Sitting within the Gold Coast Light Rail Urban Renewal Area, the site is earmarked for 27 two bedroom apartments sit beneath a four bedroom penthouse. 324 square metres of communal open space facilities are included, taking advantage of the its riverfront location.

<blockquote>
The building features a traditional architectural treatment of a ‘base’, a ‘middle’ and a ‘top’: Tower Base The tower is suspended over two dramatic angled frames at the entry/recreation deck level; so that the tower itself appears suspended or ‘floating’ above ground.

Tower (‘Middle’) Architecture The tower itself is strongly articulated with vertical planes on the northern and southern elevations, east and western faces feature stronger horizontal treatments with full height glazing and horizontal sun-shading. Tower ‘Cap’ The building is capped with soaring cantilevered roof elements which provide a lightness to the built form, and a separation to the massing of the tower itself.

BDA Architecture strengthens its Project Database presence with new residential applications

<html><body>
A new skyscraper in Gold Coast's <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/broadbeach-qld">Broadbeach</a> is expecting 61 apartments within a sleek 41 storey form.

Developer <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/bassar-group">Bassar Group</a> is backing the high end, low density residential project at 22 George Avenue and 33 Surf Parade. Dubbed Infinity Tower, the development will in time be pitted against a host of similarly placed apartment projects in the area that are chasing luxury buyers.

A sample of Broadbeach projects from the Urban.com.au Project Database reflects the low density configurations of a number of apartment towers that are exclusively chasing well heeled purchasers.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public//pictures/article-images/image2_17.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="Slotting in to the Broadbeach scene.

Image: BDA Architecture" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Slotting in to the Broadbeach scene. Image: BDA Architecture</figcaption></figure>Projects under construction such as <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/projects/vue-broadbeach-10-12-first-avenue-broadbeach">Vue Broadbeach</a> and <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/buildings/elysian-185-old-burleigh-road-broadbeach">Elysian</a> maintain on average no more than two apartments per floor. Earlier this year an application for 2 Charles Avenue emerged which seeks to push the envelope for luxury living in Broadbeach.

Christened <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/class-broadbeach-2-charles-avenue-broadbeach">Class Broadbeach</a> the Charles Avenue location is slated for a 54 storey tower holding only 46 apartments, including 34 full floor three bedroom apartments, five two storey sky homes and a three storey penthouse.

Conversely Infinity Tower is expecting a mix of two, three, four and six bedroom dwellings.

Bassar Group took the application to planning in recent days, hoping to convert the 1,012 square metre corner site into a skyscraper of distinction. Currently the property includes two villas and three units.

<figure><a class="colorbox colorbox-insert-image" href="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public//pictures/article-images/image3_14.jpg" rel="gallery-all" title="Street level perspective.

Image: BDA Architecture" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>Street level perspective. Image: BDA Architecture</figcaption></figure>The building's form has led to the moniker Infinity Tower, with BDA Architecture employing a curvilinear form above a podium and describing it as an "exciting fluid tower that will be an iconic defining development to energise this precinct of Broadbeach.

The proposed project name is ‘Infinity’ and essentially the tower’s plan shape acknowledges the symbol for infinity – integrating the symbol twice to achieve the tower form. Spatially this curvilinear shape wraps the rectangular apartment structure."

Oversized apartments aside, prospective future residents can expect a full podium level devoted to amenities, as is a section of the skyscraper's roof level.

A point of difference over the tower is an external lighting system that will illuminate the podium and backlight the coloured horizontal fins on the south side of the tower, "ensuring the towers presence in the skyline at night."
