As seen in The Local Project, Lorient by Mosaic is a riverfront residence shaped by calm luxury and a strong connection to its surroundings. The curved architecture mirrors the movement of the Maroochy River, with natural materials and soft forms designed to settle into the landscape. The collaboration between Mosaic and bureau proberts has created a building that feels both sculptural and understated, with privacy, orientation and outlook carefully considered throughout.

Inside, the residences are generous and refined, with warm timbers, natural stone and wide windows framing views of the river, Goat Island and Mount Coolum. Seamless indoor outdoor flow, thoughtful detailing and a suite of premium amenities come together to create a private sanctuary on the edge of the CBD. Lorient sets a clear benchmark for coastal apartment living and continues to be recognised for its design, quality and sense of place.

Set on level four, this residence occupies half the floor at the perfect height to capture sweeping views across the river, the river mouth and out to the Pacific Ocean. Spanning 328 square metres with three ensuite bedrooms, two living areas, a study nook and a beautifully appointed kitchen, it delivers refined coastal living with wide river facing windows, curated materials and a calm interior palette. Private rear balconies draw in views to Buderim, and residents enjoy access to a pool, spa, sauna, gym and pontoon.

"Lorient sets a new benchmark for coastal living on the Sunshine Coast. The overwhelming success of this project has been that people cannot fully explain what it is that they love because it is so many little things. But they love how it makes them feel, and that feeling is at the heart of creating great residential projects," says Mosaic director Brook Monahan. It is the type of building that you walk into and simply do not want to leave, and half floor residences of this calibre almost never come to the market.
