About Skye by Pikos

Located at 8 River Terrace, the project consists of three residential towers designed by architects Conrad Gargett. The development is notable for its integration of luxury and architectural precision, promising to add a striking feature to the Brisbane skyline.

Each of the three towers rises to 13 levels and contains no more than 25 residences, with a maximum of two apartments per floor. This design choice emphasizes exclusivity and privacy for future residents.

The apartments are designed to offer spacious living areas and panoramic views of the Brisbane River, City Botanic Gardens, and the CBD. Features include open-plan layouts, full-height windows, wide balconies, and main bedrooms equipped with walk-in wardrobes and ensuites. Each residence also provides at least two car parking spaces.

Amenities reflect a focus on resort-style living. The development includes the Skyeline aquatic deck, which features a heated infinity pool situated at the northernmost peak of the site. The pool’s location allows for uninterrupted views and access to both sunrise and sunset vistas. Additional amenities include a rooftop leisure and regeneration deck and an outdoor kitchen.

The project’s design also incorporates environmental considerations, with a layout aimed at maximizing natural light and ventilation. Lush plantings in precast concrete planter boxes harmonize with the surrounding environment, adding greenery to the façade.

As one of Brisbane’s prominent residential projects, Skye by Pikos highlights a shift towards high-end, low-density living. It also reflects broader trends in urban development as Brisbane gears up for increased global attention with the upcoming 2032 Olympics. While the development is still under construction, its architectural and design elements suggest it will make a lasting impact on the city’s residential landscape.
