The design for the Stanley balances modern living with the character of the surrounding neighbourhood, contributing positively to the Kogarah area. The ground floor integrates seamlessly with the streetscape, maintaining visual continuity with adjacent heritage terraces. A through-site link connects Victoria Street and Stanley Lane, enhancing connectivity, accessibility and fostering community interactions.

The building is designed to offer high-quality living spaces, featuring apartments with generous layouts, ample storage, and well-configured private open spaces. The rooftop terrace provides communal amenities and gardens designed with optimal solar access for year-round use.

Inspired by the local context, the development incorporates materials including brick, perforated metal bi-fold screens, and metal awnings. These materials contribute to a cohesive, timeless design that enhances privacy, optimizes sunlight, and adds visual interest. Stanley represents a thoughtful approach to architecture, blending contemporary design with respect for the local environment while contributing to Kogarah’s growing residential precinct.
