The townhouses and apartments share a common language of bay windows, balconies and roof terraces. Internally, the block contains a diverse range of residential typologies, from simple townhouses and apartments to interlocking units with alternating panoramic views of the sea. Interiors are light, airy and open with simple plank and herringbone oak flooring, grey veined stone, and fish scale tiles.

The crescent sits directly on a raised part of the beach, and the semi-circular massing is used to frame a sheltered communal garden at the back away from the prevailing south-easterly winds.
