South Bank - MasterplanA masterplan of microgeography

Designed in its entirety by Blee Halligan, this complex masterplan is for a collection of 19 Oceanfront, 19 Lagoon, 38 Boathouses and 12 condominiums. Set on a virgin site of 32 acres, the project aims to integrate homes sensitively into 4 unique natural environments; an ironshore, a dune, a lagoon and a peninsula. Each design is borne from the microgeographies present on the site and conceived for those with an adventurous spirit and passion for the ocean.

Each house typology has a unique relationship with the water and the land; the Banks and Shoal Villas are sited on a rugged ironshore coastline and have dramatic swimming pools that allow residents to swim out to a cliff edge. The Dune Villas hunker a three storey villa behind the dune apex and nestle organically shaped pools into the dune hollows. A man-made lagoon with a beach has been created at the centre of the scheme which allows a calmer enjoyment of the water for our

Lagoon Houses. These sit raised above a sandy shore at the water’s edge and are inspired by the perched positioning of Malibu beach houses. The Boathouses have individual boat docks fronting a marina and are clustered around a central shady community park with a shared swimming pool. Infrastructure works project broke ground in Summer 2019 and the project completes in late 2024.
