New Resort Earns Platinum Rating

DKO Architect’s Silverwater Resort gains four-and-a-half stars

New Resort Earns Platinum Rating


BY

November 2nd, 2007


Silverwater is the biggest project of its kind to hit regional Victoria and has just received a rating of four-and-a-half stars taking its place as a top tier residential property.

With 80% of the property sold already, and a further 34 apartments due to be released, property investor Brico have suitably invested time and money to ensure that the project is innovative in design, and environmental suitable to the region.

DKO Architects have embodied excellence in design, function and building execution in the project as the family resort exudes a community feel, laced with appeal.

The resort features restaurant, cocktail lounge, billiard and conference facilities, but the most visible architectural feat is a cascading waterfall in the pool area.

Dipped in integrity: The profound depth of Aeron Chair’s extended palette

Aeron Chair’s new shades, Nightfall and Jasper, arrive with a sense of quiet cohesion – no bells and whistles, no loud technicolour; just two timeless, perfectly versatile near-neutrals. But the new hues aren’t just about colour – and their significance is much more profound than their surface-level subtlety might suggest.
