Elysian Site Update: Set in Stone
Façade works are now well underway at Elysian.
In this update, we’re on site with Peter Raimondo of Oculus Building Science and Façades, alongside Mark Chee from Terraform Synergy, whose team is installing the building’s stone rainscreen system.
The façade brings together a full performance-led build-up which includes thermally broken joinery, ventilated cavities, and layered membrane systems. It's all designed to manage moisture, improve thermal performance, and ensure long-term durability in a harbourside environment.
A heavy duty rail system sets the alignment before each stone panel is installed with zero tolerances. It’s a precise, methodical process that forms Elysian's stunning Omani marble exterior.
With installation now progressing, the building is starting to take on its final form ahead of completion in Q4 2026.
