Manly Apartment was refurbished by Katon Redgen Mathieson practice this year as a Sydney base for an Australian expatriate couple. The apartment is located within a 1970’s residential tower that enjoys significant views to Sydney’s Manly beach to the north, and Shelley Beach and the ocean to the east.
About the Project:
The apartment is located within a 1970’s residential tower that enjoys significant views to Sydney’s Manly beach to the north, and Shelley Beach and the ocean to the east.
The interior has been completely remodelled, removing existing partition walls to create a sequence of open plan spaces. Bathrooms, a laundry and kitchen are clustered toward the building’s core, creating an uninterrupted perimeter that maximises light, views and a sense of openness. Stone clad blade walls define the living, dining and bedroom spaces whilst engulfing existing structural columns.
An impression of calm is created within the apartment through a limited material palette of limestone, linen and grey oak veneer.
