This latest proposal by Cavcorp offers a residential enclave that again raises the benchmark of architectural excellence within the Newstead and Teneriffe Waterfront locality. The design offers the following key attributes:

A truly iconic building façade that features the following design attributes:

• Vertical and horizontal articulation including curved balcony forms and architectural trellis / screening;
• Visual definition between the lower and upper modules; and
• Varying scales of recess at upper levels.
• Landscaping at both ground and podium levels;
• Communal vegetation garden, swimming pool, sun deck and gym;
• Ground floor courtyards which cater for a human scale/ landscaped interface and casual surveillance;
• All car parking confined to basement levels; and
• Pedestrian shelter from the elements.

The building’s unique façade is characterised by curved balcony forms, architectural trellis / screening, varying scales of recess and differing materials, colours and textures. These design elements integrate with the landscaping at the upper and lower levels to achieve a visually balanced façade and high level of streetscape appeal.

16 – 20 Wyandra Street is Cavcorp’s sixth project in the Newstead/Teneriffe area after Como, The James, Kurv, 60-64 Doggett Street and 43 Wyandra Street Newstead.

The DA number for this project is A004016151.
