Sorano transforms an amazing waterfront site into something that highlights and responds to our unique climate and city. The site encapsulates the character of its surroundings and history, presenting itself as world class with a distinctly Queensland vernacular.
Vegetation at the ground level, on the roof terrace and on the facade provides shade, reduces the urban heat island effect and cools the local area. The development sets a new benchmark for living and enriches the urban experience – helping showcase Brisbane as a green, subtropical city.
The plant palette is dominated by lush, calming and cool species that are native and/or suitable to our unique Brisbane climate – a subtle acknowledgement of Kangaroo Point local resident and famous botanist Harry Oakman’s love of lush, tropical species.
