Renowned architect Tzannes’ design is inspired by a strong sense of place, ensuring No.1 Onslow Place adds a contemporary yet timeless dimension to the heritage character of this coveted neighbourhood.
Its thoughtful choice of materials will endure and only improve over the years. The distinctively curved brickwork is an echo of Onslow Place’s elegant crescent form, and pays homage to the art deco architecture of neighbouring apartments.
A natural sandstone bedrock anchors the residences, with tall Kentia palms and lush plantings adding scale and texture. Above, the curved terraces are framed by discreet shutters, adding light and softness to the building’s form.
“My favourite aspects of this building’s design are perhaps its least obvious. It is built to last with materials that will only improve with age, and will bring its own distinctive identity while respectfully being at one with Onslow Place.”
