Residential Specification and Design Approach

Edge apartments are designed to maximise internal space and natural light, with private balconies featured in some residences.

The mix of properties caters to a variety of household types, ranging from one-bedroom apartments to larger three-bedroom layouts.

It is a project that includes social spaces and access to community infrastructure in its design scheme. The redevelopment keeps density relatively low with 50 apartments spread across seven storeys, and has one of the area’s better examples of integrated building design. Sustainability and integration within the surrounding neighborhood/area play an important part in the long-term placement of the project.
