Leading Queensland developer, Pradella, is celebrating its win at the recent Master Builders Housing and Construction Awards, receiving the coveted Residential Building (high-rise over 3 storey) over $20 million category award for its Horizons building at the Urban Edge development in Kelvin Grove.

Located two kilometres from the Brisbane CBD in the burgeoning Kelvin Grove Village precinct, Urban Edge is a multi-staged, master planned apartment project that will ultimately comprise three buildings with around 380 apartments on an 8,000 square metre site.

The 12-level Horizons building was completed in 2013 and comprises 133 units with 11 different one and two bedroom apartment layouts and three colour schemes.

Development Manager, Brett Lentz, said the award was testament to Pradella's commitment to delivering residential communities at the forefront of building innovation and quality craftsmanship.

"Our vision for Urban Edge was to create a balanced urban configuration that delivered on lifestyle, connectivity and convenience, combining superior architectural design, construction know-how and innovative engineering solutions.

The development boasts luxury inner-city apartments set amongst 4,300 square metres of sprawling landscaped gardens and recreational facilities with expansive CBD, Victoria Park Golf Course and parkland views, Mr Lentz said.

Mr Lentz said urban design principles were fundamental in underpinning the development's design.

Subtropical design principles were used to create a unique flow-through layout, which increases natural light, airflow and provides deep shaded balconies.

In addition, the landscaping responds to the conditions of Brisbane's sub-tropical climate to provide a number of different spaces for residents to enjoy the outdoors, which is such an important part of every day life.

"Each building is linked by more than an acre of private landscaped open spaces, making it one of Brisbane's greenest inner-city developments.

Mr Lentz said the interiors of each apartment feature a high standard of finishes and incorporate clever flow-through unit design.

"The standard of finish in the apartments is second to none with particular attention having been paid to the design and quality of the kitchens, bathrooms, floors, balconies and lighting throughout each apartment.

Mr Lentz said Urban Edge is ideally located in close proximity to world-class education, medical and entertainment facilities and combines a host of outstanding features for residents.

With on-site facilities ranging from a state-of-the-art gymnasium and yoga lawn to a cascade pool, lagoon pool and outdoor recreation spaces including barbeques, covered entertaining "pods's and multi-purpose theatre room, Urban Edge offers the complete package, he said.
