A $70 million, 20-storey tower by Chinese developer Zone Q has been approved – the tallest residential tower to receive development approval from the City of South Perth in almost 45 years.

Known as Pinnacle South Perth and designed by HASSELL, the building incorporates a mixture of one and two bedroom apartments as well as penthouses. It is part of a $100 million apartment and commercial project in the west coast city of Perth.

A statement by the architects reads:

“Due for completion in 2016, the HASSELL-designed development…includes a $30 million seven-storey commercial tower, a ground level retail offering and communal facilities including an indoor/outdoor deck with heated waterfall edge pool, a barbecue terrace, gymnasium, chef's kitchen and dining/function space.

Principal Mike Rendell said the international experience of HASSELL was significant in helping Zone Q navigate the Australian market.

"With studios across China, Australia, South East Asia and the UK, HASSELL is well placed to assist developers who are looking to expand their global footprint," said Mike.

"We worked with Zone Q to understand its goals, drivers and aspirations for the project and developed a design response that was appropriate for the leafy suburb of South Perth.

"Successful mixed-use developments are often both complex and multi dimensional, addressing a range of urban design, technical and qualitative design questions. The design for Pinnacle South Perth balances the complex and often competing needs of the residents and commercial tenants with those of the local community."
