Australia's tallest residential timber tower
Monterey is an architectural landmark residence that embodies the perfect synergy between design, sustainability and natural beauty.
Standing as a beacon of sustainable innovation, it features a cutting-edge Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) structure. This renewable, high-performance material actively sequesters carbon, dramatically reduces embodied energy, and optimises thermal integrity to create a healthier, more environmentally conscious living environment.
Award winning architects Hayes Anderson Lynch bring to life a design that compliments the riverside lifestyle. This elegant design embodies sustainable principles which truly encompasses Brisbane’s vision for “buildings that breathe”.
The angles and ribboning of the balustrade design in addition to the full height glass maximises the view of the Brisbane River and Story Bridge, looking out to the CBD’s sparkling skyline and beyond to the mountains.
Recessed, shaded balconies are skirted by brass perimeter screens that provide both sun shading and added privacy. At the ground floor, the driveway and services are tucked to one side, giving way to the light filled, glazed lobby.
Nestled on the Kangaroo Point Peninsula, a secluded hamlet and a beautiful village precinct, Monterey offers a harmonious fusion of architecture, recreation, tranquility, scenery, and entertainment.
Every Gardner Vaughan home is a permanent mark of our standards. We think carefully about where we build, who we build for, and what we leave behind. South East Queensland is our home. The communities we develop are ones we’re genuinely invested in. Not just for now, but for the generations that follow.
We build what we design and we stand behind what we build. As a builder-developer, every project moves through one tightly-knit team from first idea to final handover. Built on accountability, care and the conviction that the details matter.
Our relationship with clients doesn’t end at handover. It continues long after they’ve moved in, because we care about more than building a home. We care about the people who call it home. We stay involved, connected and accountable. Because care isn’t something we say. It’s something we show in how we build and how we stand by what we create.
