BEACHSIDE APARTMENTS | SANDBANKS, POOLE, DORSET

Striking addition to the local architecture through its fusion of coastal design and contemporary flair.

 

This Marlow-designed apartment block, prominently situated on the beachfront, is a striking addition to the local architecture through its fusion of coastal design and contemporary flair. Each apartment has been designed to embrace the close proximity to the sea, with private terraces offering a connection between internal living areas and outdoor amenity spaces. Hanging planting softens the impact of the architecture against the natural setting, echoing the greenery seen on the dunes that run along the beach. 

At ground floor level, a luxurious undercroft garage and leisure wing, complete with a sauna, gym and pool, offer residents a social and wellness area which captures views out to the sea. Beyond the interior leisure facilities, direct beach access and meticulously landscaped outdoor areas clad with local stone, seamlessly harmonise the apartments with the unique qualities of the area.

 
 
 

Throughout the scheme, the highest quality materials have been used, from concrete-effect porcelain, which gives a resilience against weathering, to timber accents which introduce warmth. Each has been composed in a way that balances the needs of the site with the experience of residents.
