ETHOS SYDNEY: Sculpting Modern Luxury with Precision Window Wall Systems

Project Snapshot

Location: Sydney, Australia

Project Type: Luxury Residential

Project Area: 10,000 m²

Façade Systems: Window Wall & GRC

Standards: Australian Standard AS4284

Status: Under Construction

SunFrame Scope: Design support, fabrication, installation supervision of Window Wall systems

Nestled in the vibrant tapestry of Sydney’s urban and natural landscape, ETHOS SYDNEY rises as an emblem of architectural excellence. SunFrame had the opportunity to be the façade solution partner for this architectural narrative. Therefore, we applied our Window Wall System to this 10,000 m² canvas, uniting cutting-edge design with timeless elegance. 

The journey begins here — in these renderings, you can already sense how light, transparency, and sculptural GRC forms will transform this space.

ETHOS SYDNEY - Conceptual Rendering

SunFrame’s collaboration on ETHOS SYDNEY goes beyond façade installation. Rather, it is a journey of:

Architectural storytelling–interpreting the building’s dialogue with the city and natural surroundings.

Material innovation–using advanced GRC and Window Wall systems to combine sculptural form with transparency.

Engineering precision–with AS4284 compliance, ensuring structural performance, air and water tightness.

Meticulous craftsmanship enabled by advanced technology–translating design intent into perfectly aligned, high-quality façade elements.

Below, we illustrate how each element contributes to shaping a residence that harmonizes with Sydney’s skyline and elevates modern luxury living:

1. Architectural Vision – A Dialogue with the City

At ETHOS, GRC and Window Wall systems come together to craft a harmonious interplay of light, mass, privacy, and openness across Sydney’s skyline. Walking through the site, you can already sense how the interiors will naturally connect with the surrounding city and landscape. It really gives you a sense of the scale and care behind every detail.

2. Material Poetry – The Language of GRC and Window Wall Systems

The expressive forms and intricate textures of GRC provide a sculptural solidity, while the transparent Window Wall system dissolves the boundaries between interior and exterior. Sunlight, sea breeze, and panoramic city views permeate the spaces. It is a visual identity uniquely ETHOS.

Step onto the construction site and you’ll see the vision taking shape. Each Window Wall panel is carefully aligned with the GRC units, as our team brings the design to life, piece by piece.

3. Engineering Elegance – Performance Beyond Aesthetics

Beneath the façade’s dramatic composition lies SunFrame’s meticulous engineering. Built to the rigorous Australian Standard AS4284, the 150 series Window Wall system is engineered to meet stringent structural and environmental criteria. Its multi-layered sealing ensures exceptional air and water tightness, delivering comfort, energy efficiency, and lasting luxury.

4. Precision in Execution – Collaborative Craftsmanship

Now in the midst of active development, the ETHOS project stands as a testament to meticulous collaboration. SunFrame expertly integrated modular, pre-fabricated Window Wall systems into the intricate GRC units. Our team carefully slots each Window Wall panel into the GRC units — it’s like putting together a giant, elegant puzzle.

5. Essence of ETHOS – Merging Spirit and Technology

ETHOS, inspired by the Greek idea of “essence” and “spirit,” represents the pursuit of exceptional living. SunFrame brings design intent to life with high-quality façades, shaping Sydney’s evolving architectural landscape.

And finally, the completed section reveals the story in full. As shown in the picture below, the GRC and Window Wall systems merge seamlessly, filling the space with light and elegance while creating a smooth, living connection between interior and exterior.
