Our Approach
It begins with
visionary thinking.
visionary thinking.
With each new development, we set out to raise the standard for premium apartment living in Western Australia.
It begins with visionary thinking. Pushing boundaries. Going beyond the ordinary in our approach to planning and design, as we draw on the extensive knowledge and experience of our development and construction teams.
We are dedicated to developing a design unique to each site’s location, aiming to create a seamless connection between the environment, established amenities, thoughtful architecture, and luxurious, liveable interior spaces. This dedication to excellence and visionary living is the core of our business ethos.
Premium Locations.
Choosing the location for each new development begins with a site visit from Edge directors Gavin Hawkins and David Hillam. Together, they walk the site, taking in the surroundings and conceptualising a vision informed by a combined 40 years of development expertise. The criteria is simple but fundamental; would they choose to live there? Would they confidently recommend this future development to family and friends? Only if the answer is a resounding yes will a site be considered for an Edge development.
Throughout the design and development application phase, Edge undertakes extensive community consultation, working with local authorities to ensure the development will be an asset to residents and the local community alike.
Design-led innovation.
We are relentless in our pursuit of innovative design that inspires. However, our commitment to excellence goes beyond that. We oversee every aspect of the development process, from site consideration and acquisition through to design and construction.
With over 20 years of experience, Hillam Architects have earned a commendable reputation for exceptional design, from bespoke custom luxury homes to multi-residential, mixed-use, and commercial projects. As partners with Edge, Hillam Architects share our passion for creating buildings that are innovative and enduring.

Our clients are increasingly environmentally conscious, and so are we. We are dedicated to implementing best practices in energy-efficient and sustainable design – by actively sourcing sustainable materials, recycling over 90% of our construction waste, employing water-wise fixtures, and utilising energy-efficient systems whenever possible. Our residences are also thoughtfully designed to enhance air quality, thermal and acoustic comfort, optimised lighting, and quality product finishes.
We maintain close industry engagement to stay up to date on the latest innovations in sustainable design, allowing us remain at the forefront of this field. We also have an environmental management plan in place to identify and manage potential environmental risks during construction.
Our signature sustainability features include:
Double Glazing
Our high-performance double glazing ensures an energy-efficient façade.
Energy Efficient Services
We use LED lighting, motion sensors, and detailed system tuning to reduce energy use. Extensive metering and monitoring further optimise our building services.
Waterwise Fixtures & Fittings
We conserve potable water through efficient fixtures and compliance with the Building Code for WELS star ratings.
Active Transport Facilities
Our developments promote alternative transportation, offering showers, lockers, secure bicycle parking, and disability access. This encourages physical activity and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
Low Emission Vehicle Infrastructure
We provide charging infrastructure for electric vehicles, in line with sustainable practices and market trends.
Public Transport Connections
Our developments boast convenient public transport connections by bus and train, making commuting a breeze.
Walkable Neighbourhood
Our prime locations grant easy access to off-site amenities, including supermarkets, medical services, dining options, sports and recreational facilities, libraries, banks, and parks.
Reducing Greenhouse Emissions
Our designs and construction focus on reducing overall greenhouse emissions by addressing energy demand, increasing efficiency, and generating power through on-site photovoltaic arrays.
Our green future.
Edge is proud to have three developments currently registered with the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) targeting a 5-Star Green Star rating.
The Green Star rating system represents Australia’s best practices in this area, and guides the sustainable design and construction of every Edge development, as we seek to reduce our environmental footprint for future generations. In addition, Green Star buildings use 66% less energy and 51% less water than average buildings; savings that our residents enjoy every single day.

Committed to our customers.
For over a decade, Edge’s mission has been to define and consistently deliver visionary living, and this includes the entire customer journey. The personalised approach adopted by our in-house sales team empowers clients to make informed decisions in their own time, taking the pressure out of the buying experience.
Our unique project delivery approach also sets us apart. By integrating our development and construction teams, we can guarantee seamless communication and coordination throughout every phase of the project delivery process. This streamlines decision-making, minimises project delays and improves quality control. It all adds up to a better customer experience and superior development outcomes.
Ongoing services.
When clients choose an Edge apartment, our support extends far beyond the purchase. We are committed to standing behind every development, providing clear communication on all matters, including strata and building management, long after residents move in. The ongoing satisfaction of our clients and advocacy for the Edge experience is always our priority.
For over a decade we’ve made it our mission to define and consistently deliver visionary living.
