The project, 71 on Garfield, named after its prime location at 71-73 Garfield Terrace which Iris secured earlier this year, will have 51 apartments
The hotly anticipated development of Garfield Terrace is heading in to 2022, with further plans submitted to the Gold Coast City Council for a luxury apartment tower.
Following the submission by the Sydney-based Weiya Holdings, who plan to develop Aalto, a 64 apartment block at 75-79 Garfield, the fellow Sydney-based developer, Iris Capital, has lodged plans for their next development which sits next door.
The project, 71 on Garfield, named after its prime location at 71-73 Garfield Terrace which Iris secured earlier this year, will have 51 apartments across the 38-level tower, as well as a two level beach house.
DBI, who handled Iris Capital’s recently launched Victoria & Albert in Broadbeach, their first foray in to the Gold Coast apartment market, put together the plans for 71 on Garfield.
“Iris Capital is set to deliver a new breed of building, combining subtropical principles, fashion inspired design and a sky living experience,” DBI’s design statement read.
“71 on Garfield is designed exclusively for the coastal environment, moving away from smaller unit types and white upstands to embrace the increasing demand for large apartments and a new level of coastal sophistication.”
Another aimed at the high end holiday maker or owner-occupier, the smallest apartments on offer will have three bedrooms and span half a floor, oriented to have ocean-facing balconies.
They run over half way up the tower, before hitting the resident facilities on level 24 where there will be a swimming pool and pool deck, a gym with a sauna, and an outdoor barbecue and dining area.
Up to level 33 will be the full-floor, four bedroom apartments, each with a study and private plunge pool on the balcony.
The most impressive apartments are right on the top of the tower.
The five-bedroom subpenthouse spans two levels and has a larger plunge pool on the lower level balcony, an upstairs ocean-facing master retreat with a private balcony, study, two walk in wardrobes, and an ensuite. Each of the five bedrooms have walk in robes and ensuites.
Crowning the tower is a three-level penthouse, with the same floorplate as the subpenthouse, but with the addition of the rooftop, where a room, pitched as being suitable as a gym, lounge, or games room (complete with a sauna), opens to the outdoor area where there’s a swimming pool and outdoor kitchen.
The beach house starts from the ground level and has four bedrooms and two living areas across its two levels. There’s a pool that opens from the ground floor living space.
DBI said that narrow sites are challenging, which makes quality urban design principles more important than ever.
“Reclaiming direct visual connection between the street and the beach and enhancing permeability is essential,” the team noted.
“The aesthetic reveals the balance between fashion, craft, elegance and luxury. Soft edges and elegant curves help to soften the built form and create a distinctive ‘welcoming’ identity, at a macro scale to the city skyline and a micro scale at the pedestrian level.
“The timeless design and lines of the towers are highlighted by the metallic textured and crafted sculptural spine of the building dialogue with the elegance and simplicity of the glass volume.
“The materiality relates to a ‘decadent’, yet sophisticated, fashion icon and beach lifestyle.”
There development of Garfield Terrace is expected to continue in to the new year, with the Brisbane-based Siera primed to create a boutique tower. KTQ are also set to reveal what they intend to do with their huge amalgamated beachfront site.
