VOYAGES ACROSS THE SEAS CABARITA FERRY
THE BIG EVENT SYDNEY OLYMPIC PARK
Whether you’re catching up on some rest
and relaxation, or heading to work, the local
Cabarita Ferry is a wonderful way to explore
or commute. Hop aboard and breathe in the
sea air as the ferry takes you westward to
Sydney Olympic Park and Parramatta and
through Balmain and Darling Harbour to
Circular Quay on its city-bound route. The
ferry wharf is just a stroll across the peninsula
in pretty Cabarita Park.
From mighty sporting clashes and big-name
concerts to the annual Royal Easter Show,
Sydney Olympic Park hosts many of this city’s
leading events and spectaculars. Whatever
your pleasure – sports, leisure, entertainment
or culture – this world-famous venue is a star
attraction. Only a few minutes away by car, or
catch the ferry and arrive in style.

Seamless connectivity is key to this

It feels like an island of tranquillity,
yet you’re in the heart of it all.
From here you can make the harbour your
highway. Nearby Cabarita ferry is one of the
most popular in the fleet, departing the wharf
approximately every half hour.
A scenic trip to Circular Quay takes around
30 minutes, certainly the best way to fly.
Concord West and North Strathfield railway
stations are within walking distance, taking
you to the City, Hornsby, Parramatta and
beyond. Majors Bay is also served by several
regular and express city bus routes to Circular
Quay via Concord, Cabarita, the Five Dock
Shops and Leichhardt, Burwood, Strathfield
and Ashfield.
For a unique way to travel across the harbour
by car, try the Putney Punt, the only remaining
car cable ferry in Sydney. Connecting the
peninsula with Putney across the bay, it gives
you easy commutes to Ryde and Sydney’s
northwest. The short 300-metre crossing
takes around 5 minutes.

maximum amenity for each individual

natural amenity here, particularly the views
and landscapes. We’ve really responded to
that. Looking over the Yaralla Estate, this
almost untouched, unspoilt headland, is
amazing. It’s a completely unique situation
Majors Bay is not your typical wall of
apartments. We wanted to create streetscapes
and waterscapes, to create continuity with the
surrounds and set the ensemble of buildings
within that. Working with the topography
and the height of the buildings, which step
down as they move closer to the water, we’ve
been able to maximise water and district views
for everyone.
With this graduated scaling down to the
waterfront and the extensive landscaping
around the buildings and foreshore, the
character is very open, green and expressive.
It draws from the waterside location providing
many ways to enjoy the views and the bayside.

“It’s a completely unique situation in

There are many different scales and typologies
of building. As a group they’re cohesive, but they
have their own identity. We wanted to create a
neighbourhood, a village, not simply individual
buildings doing their own thing.
They relate harmoniously to each other, but use
a varied architectural language and a varied
palette of accents, materials and colours.
In the apartments themselves, how have you
heightened connections to this special bayfront
setting?
We have put a lot of focus on indoor-outdoor
space. Every apartment has a really generous
balcony, and most run across the full length of
the apartments flowing off both the living and
bedroom areas. They are oriented to maximise
light and views and designed more as outdoor
rooms. Importantly, many apartments are
corner apartments with multiple aspects. All
this encourages residents to get out and enjoy
Sydney’s great climate and the amazing Majors
Bay vistas, even when at home.

Life grows outdoors
LANDSCAPE
BY THE SEA.
Annraoi Morris from TURNER offers an insight
into Majors Bay’s unique bayside setting.
Landscaping is a key element for Majors Bay.
How are you greening the spaces?
The nature of Majors Bays’ surrounds gave
us a rare opportunity to create something
special. The variety and lushness of the
planting is an amazing feature. We’ve placed
the buildings in a very green landscaped
setting with a sequence of open spaces
connected by links that are themselves
generously landscaped.
designed as beautiful green outlook spaces for
the apartments with deep soil that allows for
natural tall trees to grow.
What were once simple streets are
transformed into tree-lined boulevards.
Along the bayfront, a 12-metre setback creates
a wonderful new foreshore reserve and
waterside walkway that connects with existing
foreshore walks. Between the buildings we
have private landscaped zones. These are
What kind of outdoor amenity will residents
enjoy?
All residents will be able to enjoy the new
waterfront with its restored sandstone sea
wall and newly landscaped foreshore reserve
spilling down to the bay. There’ll be generous
terracing, waterfront boardwalks, outdoor
recreation areas, a sheltered pavilion area and
viewing platforms by the water. Entwined with
the buildings, there’ll be private green spaces
equipped with barbecues for entertaining.
Residents can come down in the evenings,
throw out a picnic blanket and view the sunset,
stroll along the water’s edge, or set off across
the bay by kayak. The lifestyle opportunities
are enormous.

THE BEAUTY INSIDE
Interior visions
THE
BEAUTY
INSIDE.
For the designers giving voice to Majors Bay’s
interiors, this unique setting presents so many
points of inspiration to draw upon.
We spoke with TURNER’s Angus Henderson
who has relished the opportunity to work
his magic on these rare, beautiful and
unprecedented bayside homes.
We wanted to capture both the built and
natural environments, gleaning the most
inspirational elements of these, and arriving
at a composition that is unique and true to
Majors Bay.
What was your inspiration for Majors Bay?
The special harbour hamlet quality of Majors
Bay, undisturbed by through-traffic, was really
central in our design thinking. Few places in
Sydney offer this kind of outlook, this kind of
peace, while still offering true Sydney living
just 30 minutes from the CBD.
The homes possess a “lake house” quality
encompassing feelings of escape, retreat,
enjoyment and closeness to family.
Because of its truly unique and beautiful
position, we wanted the interiors to be an
accurate reflection of the surrounds.
Working hand in hand with the lakehouse
concept, the effects of seasonal light provided
inspiration for the palettes and the more
refined details. The warmer months are
seen in the Aurora scheme, the cooler in the
Twilight. How the light hits the water and its
surrounds, reflecting and refracting back
into the buildings through the landscape and
spilling into the interiors.
Words such as luminous, lustrous, vivid and
radiant speak of the kind of qualities we aimed
to embody throughout the design.

THE BEAUTY INSIDE
How have you brought this inspiration to life
in the interiors?
The interiors “talk” to the surrounding
environment, be that natural or built. Finishes
are enhanced by the movement of light and
water. Metal accents tie back to the industrial
heritage in a contemporary way. Burnished
finishes reflect the incredible sunsets that will
be such a feature in living here.
We’ve brought that inside through subtle
accents, lighting and moods. We used the hues
found in nature; soft tones that are comforting,
approachable, honest and familiar.
Tell us about the individual spaces you’ve
created here.
We have picked out the best qualities in the
surrounding environment to come up with
contemporary homes that are both unique
and beautifully liveable. The kitchens are
centrepieces.
We’ve taken care to make them flow to
the dining areas to create true apartment
hearts. Some are galley style, others in L-shape
or islands in order to optimise space and
functionality for the individual configuration of
each apartment. There are contrasting tones
and textures, such as matt timbers against
steel detailing, and natural or reconstituted
stone benches. The bathrooms are relaxing
retreats layering soft, natural finishes with
textural tiles.
We’ve created custom mirrored vanity storage
units with open display shelves at either side
to give them a personal quality.
Even in the bedrooms, there’s beauty in the
details. There are small discovery points for
occupants to appreciate and delight in, such
as the elegant walk-in or built-in robes where
thought has gone into internal storage needs.
What options do purchasers have in finishes?
We are doing something special with Majors
Bay. Alongside the beautiful Aurora and
Twilight schemes, we are giving purchasers
the opportunity to customise aspects of
their homes. For example, purchasers will
have the option to upgrade their kitchen
splashback to dramatic stone, select beautifully
crafted timber flooring and copper or aged
iron tapware.

Park in Riverwood.
Local residential undertakings include Victoria
Park’s acclaimed East Village, Apex and Nova
Apartments, as well as Atlas and Mondrian
Apartments in Waterloo.
We spoke with the Managing Director,
Sarkis Nassif about what makes a Holdmark
apartment stand out from the rest.
In the past twenty five years, you’ve built a
reputation for creating quality, awardwinning apartments in some of Sydney’s
most sought after locations. What makes you
different from many other developers?
Holdmark is a privately owned company
that has been creating homes for over two
decades.
As the developer and the builder we are very
rigorous and hands on during all phases
of the development, from site selection
and planning through to design and final
build quality. We ensure that we balance
the requirements of our award-winning
designers with our own requirement to build
apartments that are practical and durable so
that they stand the test of time – that is what
makes us different and we are proud of that.
Many of our buyers are repeat purchasers.
I think that’s a good indication that our
commitment to quality is more than
simply a slogan. We want to build longterm relationships with our customers by
ensuring they get a good home or a good
investment for years to come.
We do that by delivering a benchmark level
of materials and finishes for every project,
from the nuts and bolts of construction
down to the level of joinery detailing.
How is this commitment to quality reflected in
your apartments?
Behind the scenes, we have stringent quality
control and supervision during construction
on those things you don’t immediately see
but that are fundamental to good property
investing. What a buyer will however see
are well designed, easy to maintain finishes
and brands.
Why do people choose a Holdmark building?
We really understand the market and
understand where people want to live. It is
all about the location. The location of the
development to amenities such as transport,
shopping, education and of course for
Majors Bay, the location to Sydney’s beautiful
waterways.

GERMAN PRECISION WITH AEG
“‘In 1907, AEG employed architect Peter
Behrens as the world’s first industrial designer.
His ‘Art in Technology’ formed the basis for
‘Perfekt in Form and Funktion’, and legendary
names such as Mies van der Rohe
and Le Corbusier were all employed in
his office. Today, we are proud to continue that
great tradition, using the language of design to
make technically advanced appliances easy,
intuitive and a sheer pleasure to use.’.”
