Tower with painted 'crown' proposed for Brisbane

Rothelowman has designed a 20-storey tower in Brisbane’s Kangaroo Point. Developer Aria has lodged a development application for the site at 58-62 Leopard Street, stating the proposed multiresedential building could act as a catalyst for future development in the precinct.

The proposed building features a distinctive painted art crown planned for the rooftop soffits. The crown will be built with a slight overhang so that, at night, the detailed underside will be illuminated for the public to see from the street below.

The rooftop space will include outdoor dining areas and barbecue facilities; a pool, spa and terrace lounge area; and unrestricted view of South Brisbane and the D’Aguilar Ranges.

The staggered balconies of the 98 apartments, jutting out at alternating depths, will add a geometric pattern to the building facade.

At ground level, a public subtropical pavilion will open to the street. According to the application, 25 percent of the ground plane will be given over to the public realm, including seating, landscaping, water features and public art.

The lobby will be designed at triple height to free up the ground level for public open space, providing space for communal recreation and refuge areas.
