Project details:
The mixed use development consists of ground floor restaurants, entry foyer, and four level podium suitable for offices or medical consulting rooms, with a 114 room hotel and seven serviced apartments over nine floors. A range of prefabricated pod bathrooms were used throughout the construction, offering significant time and cost savings during construction. The architecturally designed bathroom pods feature dark vertical porcelain wall tiles, Caesarstone benchtops, oak laminate joinery and chrome sanitary fittings.
