Comprising 15 premium apartments in Sydney’s eastern suburbs, MHNDU’s Anden brings art deco into the contemporary age.
The complex holds a range of 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments, as well as two penthouses. Sustainably designed, the design language of the former 1930s block has been retained, and elevated by MHNDU’s sustainable design.

“With Anden, we have retained the original art-deco building façade and added a new architectural identity featuring quality sustainable craftsmanship that resonates with Coogee’s relaxed coastal feel,” says developer Central Element’s Managing Director, Nathan Chivas.
