The world has been a pretty heavy place lately and our teams are embracing snippets of escapism wherever they can. One of our favourite, admittedly lower-brow but equally as drama-filled, forms of escapism has proven to be a little show by the name of Married at First Sight (MAFS). Yes, we know this content is a little left of field but hear us out.
Anyone who is up to date on the absolute glittery mess of a show we’re watching unfold Sunday-Wednesday of each week, would know that we’re coming to the end of the season. The end of the contestants’ quest of figuring out if they’ve found ‘the one’, whilst living in luxury at the gorgeous ‘Skye Suites’.
For BSE and our teams, it isn’t often that we’re involved in a project that airs nationally on our televisions each week. Our teams design spaces with the intent to bring them to life, it’s very rare to be given an opportunity to watch life bloom in those spaces. It’s a unique opportunity that our teams have been given as they watched (with bated breath) these drama filled lives unfold in Skye Suits.
BSE have been involved in a variety of residential builds; townhouses through to multi-storey resi and huge apartment towers. Crown International Holding Group have been a long-term partner of BSE and we have delivered various projects together, including Arc by Crown which Skye Suites forms part of. BSE were engaged as the services consultants for the delivery of this Iconic, modern sculptural addition to Sydney’s skyline, conveniently located in the Sydney CBD. The two, 29-storey, high-rise residential and hotel towers stand at 88m tall, encompassing 221 apartments all complete with state-of-the-art services. The development features amenities such as a spa, gym, and reflection pool and rooftop courtyard on the penthouse level. BSE delivered all mechanical, electrical, lifts and fire design services. The designs facilitated the inclusion of a new triplex substation.
Whilst this project was completed in 2018, it has undoubtedly stood the test of time and still holds it’s place as an incredibly modern, well sought after residential space. While we may not miss the intense drama, narcissism and even (MAFS hype word alert) gaslighting that MAFS throws on our screens each night, we’ll certainly miss seeing these gorgeous living spaces.
