> 34 Nerang St receives High Commendation
34 Nerang Street, an office building uniquely designed to reflect its historic context in Nerang, was awarded a High Commendation at this years 2009 Gold Coast Urban Design Design Awards.
The Jury acknowledged the building as a landmark creation, which creates an oasis in a busy place. The panel applauded the project as 'artwork in property development', in a very public and prominent position. It respects and enhances its riparian setting and displays a good use of texture, colour, angles and curves. The form of the building is reflective of Nerang's pioneering history. The curved blade walls are a reference to sugar cane stalks and the piled timber elements have been designed to reflect a wharf style structure.
