Piper House - Sydney

Type: Multi-Residential
Client: Confidential
Size: 16,500m²
Location: Sydney, NSW, AU
Status: Concept

Situated on a steep sloping site, with views across Sydney Harbour to die for, this apartment complex designed by Melbourne Architect Thextonsmith stands at 67m high over 36 split levels.

The lower levels consist of 3-bedroom apartments, each an entire split level at 192m2, with the upper six split levels comprising two penthouse apartments in total – each beautifully appointed and spread over three split levels. Each of the upper penthouse apartments has its own private pool, while the rooftop provides a shared pool and deck for the entire complex.

The split-level design was driven by the steep site, enabling vehicle access at the lower level, and maximising the development’s potential. This also enabled a whole floor design for all of the apartments, the ideal solution for this high-end suburb.
This design also creates an interesting interwoven central façade, whereby the split-level egress stairs follow the façade, zig-zagging down the spine of the building, with lifts and key services also located within the spine.
