Masterfully Crafted Architecture

The result of vision, expertise and meticulous attention to detail, MYKA’s architecture is poised to become an icon of the Metropolitan coastline. At once elegant and robust, the building draws on elements of the unique coastal landscape, referencing the graceful curve of an ocean wave and the rhythmic undulations of the sand dunes. Capitalising upon this unrivalled beachfront position, the architecture is thoughtfully crafted to open up each residence to panoramic water views, all while providing complete protection from the elements. Adorned with natural and weather-resistant materials such as textural concrete, brushed copper and timber battens, MYKA redefines the essence of sophisticated oceanfront design.

An Iconic Form -

Composed of a sculptural upper tower and inviting ground-floor precinct, the facade has been artfully crafted to provide a purposeful and immersive living experience. On the upper levels, extensive glazing not only frames picturesque ocean views, but also bathes the interiors in an abundance of natural light. Generous corner balconies have been integrated seamlessly into the facade to provide truly uninterrupted views and generous spaces for entertaining.

What inspired the design vision?

Situated on the captivating West Australian coastline, MYKA’s design is driven by a profound commitment to harmonising with the breathtaking natural surroundings. Our vision for this project is to create a sculptural composition that seamlessly integrates with the coastal environment, offering future residents the opportunity to immerse themselves in the sheer beauty of the shoreline and the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean.

Could you describe the key materials, amenities and features?

The materials selected for this project are chosen not just to complement the tones of the shoreline but also for their durability and ability to withstand coastal elements. The apartment complex is equipped with a range of amenities that cater to the needs and desires of its residents through an understanding of oceanfront living, in particular to and from the beach.

What makes these homes uniquely special?

These homes are uniquely special due to their seamless integration with the coastal environment. This was done through the articulation of the built form, which projects the balcony space outward while still being protected from the coastal conditions and wind. While providing unobstructed views, there is a sense of protection within the enclosure. The sculptural architecture amplifies the allure of the sunset and makes these homes stand out as visual landmarks along the coastline.

In which ways do the interiors harmonise with the exteriors?

The interiors of these homes are carefully designed to complement and harmonise with the exteriors. Soaring windows and open floor-plans allow the outside environment to become an integral part of the interior spaces. The colour palette and design elements within the apartments draw inspiration from the coastal surroundings, creating a sense of unity between the indoor and outdoor spaces. Balconies and outdoor living areas serve as extensions of the living space, encouraging residents to enjoy the natural beauty of the coast from the comfort of their homes. Overall, the interior spaces are thoughtfully designed to maximise the visual and experiential connection with the breathtaking landscape outside.
