Double Bay Marina

The project involved the demolition of the existing marina and the construction of a new marina off the existing slab, built on an extremely tight and restrictive site. The design of the marina is inspired by a yacht and consists of porthole windows, a concrete “bow”, curved façades, and Galley.

The marina building is constructed with new concrete Dincel walls with a suspended concrete roof structure with curved concrete soffits along with:

New curved glazing and bifold doors to the front façade
New glazed porthole windows
Switchglass privacy portholes
Mondoclad awnings
Retractable Markilux awning
Office area for marina operations
Cold Room for the storage of materials and garbage
Accessible bathroom
Accessible ramps & stainless steel handrails
Access control upgrades
Frameless glass entry doors
Tiled external walkways and fencing
Excavation & replacement of existing in ground services including shoring of adjacent properties

The project was completed in close proximity to neighbouring properties and a busy public beach, and was completed without any complaints, issues or incidents from the public or the neighbours.
