Watermarque
data, awards, description –
Overlooking Mosman Bay, these luxury apartments evidence close collaboration between architect, landscape architect and interior designer.
Waterfront wonders The Watermarque project included development of a four-storey residential building and carpark on a site previously occupied by nine apartments. The design was informed by calm, open spaces and expansive bay views.
A coveted address Pitched at individual high-income earners, these waterfront apartments boast ample windows and multiple living rooms. Operable walls allow residents to close sections for added privacy or selective heating, and access to sunlight is optimised. Stone flooring, which flows from internal to external living areas, exemplifies the development’s high standard of materials.
Mirroring surroundings Watermarque’s set-back design increases its landscape area, communal access, and natural sense of transition from the bay. Colours harmonise with its lower north shore surroundings, and the roof mimics prevailing forms in the area. Shared facilities include a boat shed and private jetty, while transport, restaurants and shops are nearby.
