Urban.com.au: Where did you draw inspiration for Cannes from? 

Ben Crossan: Marquee were fortunate to secure the last significant high-density riverfront development site within walking distance to the beach on the Gold Coast, with an amazing 95m frontage to the Nerang River. Given its location and position, we wanted to incorporate on the exterior curved elements that reflect the curves of the main river we are positioned on and the rolling waves from the ocean nearby. Meanwhile, for the interior design we looked to the French Riviera theme inspiration to pay homage to the street and project name, Cannes – Waterfront Living.&nbsp;

U: What is the price range of the apartments and are the floorplans flexible? 

BC: Marquee worked incredibly hard to provide a genuine value proposition to the buyers of Cannes across all floor plans with 2 bedroom units ranging from mid $500k to low $600k, 2 beds plus MPR from $750k to $820k, 3 beds from $750k to low $1.3M, and 4 bedroom penthouses from $2 million to $2.55 million. WE have worked with a number of buyers to provide flexibility in their apartment design. We have an inhouse team with design backgrounds that can work closely with a buyer to customise elements when they buy off the plan early.

U: What were the top 5 features you decided had to be included in the development and why?

U:&nbsp;What do you think buyers seek out the most in your development? 

BC: Buyers are increasingly discerning and are seeking quality finishes and design, water and city views and value for money in the current environment irrespective of the price of the apartment. A number of our Cannes purchasers have been monitoring the market for a long time waiting for the right opportunity. Cannes offers buyers sustainable water views which provide our buyers with a level of certainty and comfort so they can purchase with confidence.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

U: If you had to choose your favourite aspect of the building, what would it be? 

BC: We have engaged renowned <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/dbi-architects">DBI architects</a> who have done an amazing job in creating a contemporary tower design which gives an appearance of two slender structures side by side, each side with its own identity and characteristics. My favourite aspect is the northern end of the tower which incorporates beautiful glass curvature which opens wonderful view lines from our north-west and northeast three-bedroom units.

Gold Coast apartment of the week: Cannes Surfers Paradise

<html><body>
Marquee Development Partners (MDP) will launch its fourth Gold Coast project two years after receiving development approval.
It is for 96 apartments on a riverfront site at Cannes Avenue, Surfers Paradise.
The project will be called Cannes, after the French Riviera-style architecture that will define the character of the building.
Cannes will be developed on a 2,339 square meter site, which is the largest absolute riverfront lot remaining between Broadbeach and Main Beach on the beach side of the river, and was held by the same family for more than 60 years before Marquee's acquisition in late 2019.
Cannes is expected to be launched to the market at the end of this month, with two, three and four bedroom apartments and penthouses, available priced from $554,900 to $2.2 million. 
Designed by award-winning DBI Design Architects, purchasers will have 14 floorplans to choose from, with apartments boasting top shelf finishes including induction stove tops, integrated Miele appliances, walk-in robes and 40mm stone.
Marquee Development Partners CEO Mark Spedding says Cannes is the result of years of actively scouting the Gold Coast for the right development sites. 
"We always walk the site and imagine what it would be like living there before we make an acquisition," he said.
"Cannes will occupy what is undoubtedly one of Surfers Paradise's best sites, tucked away in a quiet, leafy street, yet still just a short walk to the G:Link, nearby parklands and the beach just six minutes away. 
"To top it all off, there's a rooftop lounge and barbeque area with a fire pit, private dining and board room, billiards room and library, taking in 270 degree views of the city skyline, ocean, river and hinterland."
