Student One
Wharf Street
Student One on Wharf Street is one of three locations designed by Arkhefield in the heart of Brisbane which offer premium student accommodation geared for learning and lifestyle.
The housing provides a student-centric experience that is unique in design and focuses on spaces where residents can relax, study, engage, shop, connect and play. Capturing 753 rooms over 40 levels the design responds to the brief for a tower that was safe and secure, compact, robust, fun and collaborative.
The mixed-use tower activley engages with Wharf and Adelaide Street through generous building entrances and four busy food and beverage offerings.
The façade expresses functionality to clearly distinguish the building from adjacent commercial and apartment buildings. Open recreation spaces are used to break the form vertically and were designed to blur the line between inside and outside, following the principles of sub-tropical design. The design is honest and playful and stands to represent the student accommodation typology and the Brisbane lifestyle.
