Project
Dover Heights Residences III

Construction of this pool represented on of the most technically demanding  and visually transforming components of the this six-level coastal residence. The pool is set on a newly formed primary terrace five stories above ground maximizing the panoramic views of the ocean, Eastern Suburbs and the CBD.
The surrounding landscaping is finished entirely in natural stone integrating with the adjacent terraces along with the infinity edge maintaining an uninterrupted view..
All levels are cantilevered from the main structure of the residence meaning that the works required precise sequencing, temporary works coordination and careful integration with the existing structural framework.

No chemicals are used with the actual swimming pool being ‘fed’ by ponds carved into the natural rocky outcrops at the rear. Passing through stepped polishing ponds, reed beds and inlets filtered through charcoal and pebbles the water enters the pool running along the living space and cascades into in a waterfall down to the entrance.
