APPROVED ✅ | 8-Storey Mid-Rise in Coolangatta

We’ve secured Council approval for an eight-storey residential building at Dutton Street, Coolangatta, backing onto beautiful Goodwin Park.

This boutique project includes:

⭐️ 7 thoughtfully designed full-level luxury apartments
⭐️ Deep planting paired with landscaping cascading from the lower level balconies, and planters integrated into the tower sides
⭐️ Dual-aspect balconies offering sunrise, sunset, and park views.

Designed for modern living with a connection to open space — this is apartment living done right.

EUP worked closer with the developer, architect, consultant team, and council to achieve a great outcome for the site and set a benchmark for this evolving precinct.

Parking can make or break a development. One of the biggest pitfalls we see is using the same parking rate for every project, when in reality, the Gold Coast City Plan sets different requirements for different land uses.

A 60m² café and a 60m² shop are not the same in council’s eyes.
A quick check upfront can save a redesign later. 😉

In line with World Town Planning Day, we asked one of our team members why planning is important and what he loves about his work - here’s what he said:

Planning matters to me because it shapes almost every aspect of our lives, often without us realising. It influences where we live, work, learn, play, and socialise; where we shop; and where we seek care and support—from local doctors to major hospitals and emergency services. Planning also influences how we move between these spaces, how we interact within them, and how the environment around us functions, looks, and feels.

While it’s easy to see planning as a bureaucratic process (and often it is), it runs far deeper than regulations and forms. Planning is intricately connected to how our communities grow and thrive—it affects our sense of place, our opportunities, and ultimately, our happiness and well-being.

APPROVED!

Our team at Enhance Urban Planning is thrilled to share that Council approval has been granted for a new poker venue located in Beenleigh. The approved development reactivates a former commercial office into a vibrant venue providing a new entertainment offering in the heart of Beenleigh. The venue will host regular tournament events as well as player-led games, and will be serviced by a full-licensed ancillary bar. As RiskSmart accredited consultants, EUP worked collaboratively with Council’s RiskSmart team to help bring this unique concept to life!

Congratulations to our clients, Queen B’s, on the approval and opening of the venue!

We’re excited to share that Council has officially approved this boutique dual occupancy project at 40 Peak Avenue, Main Beach

The existing dwelling will make way for a beautifully designed three-storey dual occupancy, each with four bedrooms, pitched rooflines, landscaped frontage, and elegant gabled façades that reflect the coastal charm of the area

This site sits in a tightly held residential pocket just west of Tedder Avenue — a prime location for thoughtful urban infill development.

Kudos to the whole team for securing this one.

We’re thrilled to share that our latest industrial project in Byron Bay has been approved!

The development features 12 architecturally designed units (each with a mezzanine floor) with a contemporary aesthetic differentiating itself from typical offerings and setting a new standard in the area.

A great outcome for our client and the area—congrats and thank you to all involved! 👏

We’re proud to have played a part in securing approval for Bundall Vista — a striking two-storey industrial development rising from the former site of the iconic Iceland ice rink in Bundall.

With over $10 million in sales already recorded before construction even begins, this premium small-format commercial space is clearly in high demand — and it’s easy to see why.

From concept designs to transformation on the ground, we love seeing projects like this take shape across the Gold Coast! 🤩

Footy season has wrapped up for another year – and what a season it was! From nail-biting finishes to surprise upsets, our EUP planners and consultant friends have been just as competitive off the field in our AFL & NRL tipping comps.

Congratulations to this year’s winners!!

Well done to all our tipsters — from the strategic planners to those running on pure hope 😆. And a special shout-out to Chris for claiming the NRL crown and flying the EUP flag high 🏆. Until next season!

We’re thrilled to see one of our previously approved projects featured in this year’s Gold Coast Open House — and it’s no ordinary home!

The UTE House, designed by renowned architect, author, and TV personality , is both a stunning four-bedroom family residence and a fully integrated multi-person home office — a true blend of lifestyle and livelihood.

Inspired by the iconic Australian ute (a vehicle “to go to church in on Sunday and carry the pigs to market on Monday”), this dual-purpose dwelling represents a modern evolution in residential design — one that embraces flexibility, functionality, and future-ready living.

Congratulations to Studio Snell on this well-deserved spotlight. We’re proud to have played a part in helping bring this visionary project to life!

On the Gold Coast, public notification is simply a legal step for certain projects - it’s about letting the community know what’s proposed. It doesn’t automatically mean you’ll be flooded with complaints.

✅ In fact, many times no one objects at all.
✅ Sometimes the feedback is constructive (even supportive).
✅ And when issues do come up, addressing them early can actually strengthen your project.

So don’t panic when you see those yellow signs go up! 😅 Public notification is part of the process, not a guarantee of trouble.
