Anadara

Our approach to the design of these waterfront apartments and retail was to articulate a long linear building into two primary forms; a carefully scaled rectilinear form of terra cotta that defines the waterfront, and a higher more organic sculptural form of white perforated screens to addresses the main public open space. These architectural forms are combined with a linear canopy, gentle terracing and landscape to characterise the public waterfront.
The curved forms of ‘The Cloud’ are created through fixed and operable perforated screens that can slide along the gentle curves while preserving a flush skin to the building when closed. The pattern to the outside of The Cloud softens the material used and allows maximum harbour views, whilst maintaining a private outdoor realm for the apartments. Likewise, the eastern façade provides balcony setbacks and recessed oblique windows to enable views along the length of the street. Anadara and the activated retail at ground level serves to define and reinforce a significant public realm.
