A coastal neighbourhood by Samuel Property and Cera Stribley, built by Figurehead and defined by clarity, connection and enduring design.

Earlier this month we gathered at 116 Rokeby for a Sign & Sip, our way of marking the moment a project becomes real. The event celebrated our appointment as builder for Hali Dromana and the formal contract signing with Samuel Property, joined by the architect, consultants and wider project team.

Hali sits along the Dromana shoreline and comprises seventy residences designed by Cera Stribley. The design reinterprets the Australian coastal house for contemporary life, pairing simplicity and permanence with a strong connection to landscape and light. Each home is planned around openness and privacy, framing views outward while maintaining a human scale and domestic rhythm.

At its centre, Tract Consultants have conceived more than five thousand square metres of parkland and shared gardens. The landscape connects residents through walkable green corridors, balancing social space with ecological intent. It brings generosity and structure to the plan, ensuring the project grows more established, not less, over time.

The broader team includes WRAP Consulting Engineering, Checkpoint Building Surveyors and MRM Group, each contributing to the detail and delivery of the next phase. With foundations now underway, coordination and precision will define the months ahead.

Our ongoing partnership with Samuel Property continues to evolve through shared values of design quality, integrity and craft. Across multiple projects we have built a consistent language between architecture and construction — one that prioritises detail, collaboration and longevity over gesture.

Medium-density work sits at the intersection of design and city-making. It demands an understanding of the civic, the domestic and the technical in equal measure. Projects like Hali are an opportunity to apply that balance to the coastline — to create housing that endures and contributes meaningfully to place.

Hali Dromana continues that trajectory, strengthening a collaboration defined by clarity of design and confidence in delivery.
