Bilinga continues to see development applications for boutique apartment projects submitted left right and centre.

The latest is from a private local developer, who is seeking to create two apartment buildings across 35 Golden Four Drive and 8 Pacific Parade.

Combined they will home 18 apartments, 12 in the Golden Four Drive building and six in the Pacific Parade complex.

The Brisbane-based architecture firm, Group 4 Architects, were inspired by the nearby expanse of beachfront extending from Bilinga Beach to Snapper Rocks and the pockets of tidal pools formed over time that lie in between.

"The architectural design culminates in a cohesive expression that projects a modern development within a natural setting that takes advantage of the natural beauty of the area whilst reflecting upon and incorporating elements from a past era in a modern idiom," the architecture firm noted in their submission to the Gold Coast City Council.

The Pacific Parade building will feature living areas which open to expansive balconies, with further balcony space off the master bedroom at the rear of the apartment, which will provide views to the hinterland.

At ground level, the site connects directly to Pacific Parade with a framed entry, which is set to be flanked with raised landscaped planters and stone pavement stone.

The resident amenity is spread over three levels. The ground level will feature a lap pool and a number of outdoor lounge areas, as well as a gym, sauna and steam room.

Above will be a communal first floor area where there will be a games room, cinema, lounge areas, cooking facilities with dining areas, a yacht bar and lounge. It opens to a balcony overlooking Pacific Parade and the beach.

The rooftop will feature a library, study area and an indoor lounge, which opens onto the recreation deck and another pool.

Similar to its sister development, Group 4 Architects drew on the local context for the design of 35 Golden Four Drive, creating a design that encapsulates the desirable sub-tropical lifestyle of the Gold Coast.

Golden Four will have 12 apartments, just two per floor until levels six and seven, which will home two full floor penthouses.

All of the resident amenity is on the rooftop level, which will feature a games room, theatre and indoor lounge, which will open onto the recreation deck and pool.
