Elevating everyday living through a premium, community-focused transformation
Introduction:
Dougherty Apartments in Chatswood, NSW is undergoing a full design and construct refurbishment across eight levels of communal environments to create a more cohesive, accessible, and contemporary setting for residents. The project enhances both interior and exterior shared spaces, including a fully renewed arrival experience. These improvements support daily comfort, operational efficiency, and the long-term value of the facility.

Hotel-inspired transformation
Dougherty Apartments plays an important role in the Chatswood community, but its shared spaces are outdated and no longer meet contemporary expectations for senior living. The revitalisation is establishing a more unified architectural and interior identity, one that feels welcoming, considered, and supportive of resident wellbeing.
Coverite Projects is delivering an end-to-end service across architecture, interior design, construction, and project management, providing a coordinated, transparent pathway from discovery through to delivery. Works underway include reconfiguring internal communal areas, creating a clearer entry sequence, and upgrading outdoor spaces to improve accessibility and amenity, all while navigating a complex compliance and approvals pathway in close collaboration with the client.
A key focus is introducing a refined, hotel-like experience through considered material selection, lighting, and spatial planning, elements already redefining the building's character and shaping a cohesive environment for residents and visitors. On completion, the project will deliver improved accessibility, enhanced amenities, and a premium architectural identity that supports daily life and the facility's long-term value.
