PROJECT OF THE YEAR Project of the Year in a class of its own Hansen Yuncken take the top award with their incredible $148 million sporting venue. IF EVER there was pressure to deliver a world-class project not only on time, but to the highest of standards, the 2018 Project of the Year, The Carrara Sport Precinct constructed by Hansen Yuncken, would rank close to the top in terms of strict deadlines and high expectations. The project received a $148M investment from State and Federal Governments for the purposes of constructing a venue that would host key events at the 2018 Commonwealth Games and also provide a long-term community facility for the city of Gold Coast. The precinct was set to host fierce displays of strength and speed and nail-biting moments of suspense and would offer Hansen Yuncken the opportunity to showcase their skill and expertise on a global platform. And in a great test of planning, thought, collaboration and commitment to quality, Hansen Yuncken’s foray on the world stage not only met, but exceeded expectation. Utilising cutting-edge design and building techniques, the team worked together seamlessly to navigate the many challenges that arose during stage one of construction. The project included 5 separable portions of work and involved numerous stakeholders. These included: ● Separable Portion 1 – Carrara Stadium ($99M) ● Separable Portion 2 – Refurbishment of existing Indoor Sports Hall ($7M) ● Separable Portion 3 – Gold Coast Suns Training and Administration Facility ($22M) ● Separable Portion 4 – Community Sports Fields ($5M) ● Separable Portion 5 – Metricon Stadium Lighting Upgrade ($5M) Hansen Yuncken embraced the collaborative contract style of the project and worked well with Department of State Development, Gold Coast City Council, Goldoc, Gold Coast Suns and Stadiums Qld to develop a suitable design for all stakeholders.

PROFILE Misa brings beautiful homes to life Misa Constructions has been bringing dream homes to life since its inception in 2005 and their two entries in this year’s Gold Coast Housing and Construction Awards is once again testament to this. MISA Constructions’ two entries in the Individual Home $951,000 - $1.25 Million category, both provided their fair share of difficulty, displaying the firm’s ability to overcome challenges and above all, work cohesively with clients, contractors and architects to ensure quality was never compromised. And while each project is vastly different thanks to a variety of factors, there is no denying that they are equally as exceptional. The first home, Mater Prize Home Hope Island, offers functional living in a truly awe-inspiring setting. The double storey home includes four bedrooms, an activity area, a luxury ensuite, open plan kitchen, dining, living and an entertainer’s delight featuring a stunning pool and canal views.

PROFILE to the upper level where a large void exists to once again add to the home’s open feel. The five bedrooms on the upper level include a large master bedroom that has its own balcony to soak up the expansive and private views over one of the widest stretches of Currumbin Creek, with the Elanora ridge line providing an ideal back drop. Its spacious ensuite includes bi-fold windows positioned over the bath that can be opened up to take in these same views. The external facade uses a mixture of materials to provide a striking street appeal, including Tigerskin stone rock cladding, rendered and painted surfaces and Axon FC Cladding. A large pontoon allows easy access and use of the Currumbin Creek for all water-based activities such as fishing, boating, kayaking and the like or to simply soak up the magnificent water views. Boasting a business ethos that is as simple as it is successful, Misa Constructions’ “focus on quality homes and lasting relationships” seems a winning formula. Both of their nominated projects are clear testament to this. M A S T E R B U I L D E R S H O U S I N G & CO NS T R U CT I O N AWA R D S 2 018 | 31
