Small site, unique opportunity

It is often the constraints of a project or a brief that allow us to challenge ourselves to create unique solutions and often these are the most beautiful. Myst is one of these opportunities and has been the evolution of a successful partnership between the developer Orenda and the Plus architectural team.

Myst is a truly bespoke tower of single floor plate residences with bedrooms to the south and living to the north-oriented to capture panoramic views of the coastline.

The tower will offer two apartments per floor in three-bedroom configurations. It will be topped with a four-bedroom penthouse featuring a private rooftop area and pool.

There will also be three sub-penthouses above a residents lounge on level 27, offering a private dining and function room, meeting rooms and work pods for those needing more space while working from home.

A wellness centre and communal pool are also planned between level four and five.

The podium creates a relationship not only with the existing street scale but also with the pedestrian. A layering of landscape is interwoven into this highly curated form which houses a large pool and recreation terrace for residents.

A glass floor to the pool provides for a moment of delight in the open lobby which is more of a tropical garden experience than the entry to a luxury residence.
