Market Insights
Architect-designed apartments by leading firms (Koichi Takada, BVN, Bates Smart) command 15-25% price premiums ($200,000-$500,000) versus developer-designed equivalents, driven by design excellence, bespoke detailing, and architectural cachet among high-net-worth buyers.
Award-winning apartment buildings (AIA awards, Good Design Awards) achieve 92-96% occupancy with tenant retention exceeding 3.4 years, as residents value unique spatial design, natural light optimization, sustainability features, and published architectural pedigree.
Architect-designed apartment precincts (Barangaroo, Central Park, Victoria Park) deliver 9-13% annual capital growth, outperforming Sydney metro (5-7%), due to design scarcity, international architectural reputation, and millennial/Gen-Z buyer preferences for Instagram-worthy, published buildings.
