HELM have completed their new ‘ ORA Dolls Point’ with 36 apartments, comprising a mix of 4, 3, 2 and 1 bedroom apartments. These boast large rooms, high ceilings, large amount of storge space and expansive windows. Forming a dramatic entry point is a central atrium to allow sunshine to flood into the lobby, aiding natural ventilation and helping greenery to prosper.
The site was owned by the War Widows Guild, whom HELM partnered with to increase the density and height, through a Planning Proposal which HELM managed and paid for. 
ORA is placed on a landscaped podium approximately 1 metre above natural ground level to comply with Councils Flood requirements.  With the site’s close proximity to Botany Bay, the subsurface conditions consist of loose, silty sands and acid sulphate soils, with bedrock located 25 metres below natural ground level.
Part of the design brief included retaining the existing Oak Tree located in the Southwest corner of the site. The building was designed around the tree and the basement’s shoring wall system was designed to maintain the tree root structure. It is details like this which has won HELM their award
