The Oxley 1823 is a boutique retail precinct designed to enhance the local community’s identity and sense of place. Featuring a curated mix of supermarkets, food and beverage outlets, offices, and eclectic retail spaces, it provides a vibrant and engaging destination for locals and visitors alike.
The two-storey façade is carefully proportioned to respect the surrounding streetscape, with an awning reinforcing the active frontage. A southern-facing laneway introduces natural light and ventilation, creating an open and welcoming atmosphere. Flexible shopfront modules, layered planter boxes, and cascading greenery establish a cohesive and inviting retail environment.
A refined material palette of timber-look aluminium, white brick, and lush landscaping ensures a timeless architectural character that reflects the coastal vernacular. Designed with longevity and sustainability in mind, The Oxley is a contemporary retail village that enhances the Nobby Beach precinct and fosters a strong sense of community.
