由两根融合的垂直细丝形成的建筑形式,旨在东北面和西南面布置数量最多的海景房。细丝状的元素在建筑上部分叉,形成双子塔特色的天际线,侧面如同y字,而形状像小写希腊字母γ。
在整个项目中住宅公寓占主导,其他还包括一个多功能酒店,位于塔楼廉价楼层的酒店式公寓和下层的零售店铺与独立办公楼。
全新的零售概念空间位于三层波浪状的玻璃幕墙群房中。在这里,内部流线直接创造了室内景观花园,以及沿线布置的特色商店,户外咖啡与餐饮。
商业活动的焦点就集中在这三层一站式商场中,同时拥有屋顶特色餐厅可以进行全天候的露台餐饮。

the building form, generated by two embedded vertical filaments, was developed to create the maximum number of apartments with panoramic ocean views on both the ‘front’ northeast-oriented side and the ‘back’ southwest-oriented side.
the fused elements separate at the upper levels to create a unique twin tower skyline ‘y’ profile, shape of the greek letter gamma.

while predominantly a residential apartment development, the proposal also includes a boutique hotel and serviced apartments located on the towers’ lower valued floors, lower level retail and small self-contained office building.

the building doesn’t have a single or simple image, but instead presents an ‘in-the-round’ experience providing a constantly changing yet equally dramatic impression depending on where it’s viewed from.
this effect is further enhanced by the slight axial shift in the tower’s alignment on site, resulting in the form being always oblique to the main gold coast highway and beach front roads.

the two vertically embedded tower forms have vertical faces to the northeast and southwest, with the raked profile being created with only the northwest and southeast faces sloping.
this means that the distinctive form which was required for the tower can be created using conventional construction systems.
the development also includes an innovative retail concept accommodated in the distinctive three-level glazed wave form of the podium, which directs flows internally forming an internal landscaped garden lined with specialty stores and outdoor cafes and dining.
the retail focus is a destination emporium store over three levels supplemented with a roof top signature bistro/restaurant featuring an all weather terrace dining.
