With the mission to leave an indelible mark on boutique property development throughout Queensland’s south east, Spyre Group’s Arc Residences offers an unrivalled expression of riverfront living, where craftsmanship and innovation culminate, resulting in an architectural response that is completely formed and founded by Brisbane living.
The team at Spyre work to create projects that challenge the traditional limitations of multi-residential structure, and resonate with their subtropical surrounds - and as their fourth project to commence construction in the river city, Arc presents a landmark at the apex of Toowong’s riverfront, a proud future icon of Brisbane architecture.
With a company tagline that reads “absolute mastery, above all else” Spyre have long established themselves as a small yet dynamic team with an insatiable hunger to be constantly honing their craft, and pushing into the unknown - a notion easily reflected in their trajectory of projects over the last 15 years.
An element inherently associated with the elevation of Spyre’s buildings, is the emphasis they place on their selection of project partners, collaborators and suppliers – a concept the team calls ‘the Spyre experience’.
Leading this drive to uncover nationally and internationally acclaimed suppliers and partners is Spyre’s design director, Kent Pinel.
“At Spyre we pride ourselves on curating spaces of enduring quality. I firmly believe strong relationships and a deep understanding of product; combined with invested project partners results in far more than a development, it creates a sense of shared ownership in something meaningful.
“Arc is an honest and ultimately successful extension of this way of thinking. We have critically considered each of our brand partners to ensure that all involved share in Spyre’s vision and passion for delivering Brisbane’s most enviable riverfront residences.
"From the designers right through to final finishes, the project is a deep investment in the creation of something meaningful and special, resulting in wonderfully fulfilling residences. Arc is a bold, intrinsic and emotive ‘Brisbane’ building – a vernacular of its place and an expression of riverfront lifestyle, beyond compare.”
Arc’s unique design is paired with the very finest group of curated brands and specifications, all of which the Spyre team select and test from their Fortitude Valley headquarters by hand.
“Partnering with elite brands is something that Spyre believes in," Kent said.
"The assembly of these great brands creates a genuine synergy for excellence. We are extremely proud to boast the industry’s finest brands as part of Arc; tailoring every single selection to fulfil the excellence that is promised when you purchase in a Spyre building.”
Perhaps one of the most notable, is the inclusion of Brodware hardware and tapware throughout the Toowong riverfront development. Proudly designed, engineered and manufactured in Australia, Brodware combine expert detailing, exquisite proportion and artisanal craftsmanship to create dynamic, three-dimensional forms that deliver graceful silhouettes and meaning to any space.
“We’ve been collaborating with Brodware for the better part of 10 years and to be able to ensure that Arc offers such a premium hardware and tapware outcome exemplifies our commitment to achieving the highest level of craftsmanship across every element of our developments. No stone is left unturned - we leave nothing to to chance, and specify each and every element of our buildings," said Kent.
Others among the list of curated collaborators are the likes of Wolf Appliances, Liebherr Refrigeration and SOKTAS Lighting, all bringing an unmatched level of excellence to help deliver homes of the highest luxuries in every facet.
“Arc will stand as an landmark on one of Brisbane’s most vibrant riverbends and as such requires a celebrated list of collaborators to bring this vision to life," Kent said.
"Spyre have carefully considered every finite selection and inclusion to ensure that all those involved in the project share an equal passion for delivering a riverfront life beyond compare. I’m unashamedly proud of Brisbane, and know that what we have been able to achieve at Arc Residences, will stand on international stage of Architecture which is able to embody what it is to live in this wonderful city.”
