At ColonySix, we fuse creativity and expertise to transform property into realised potential.
Our Story
We work alongside our clients to identify, reimagine and transform property. We look beyond what exists today. We see extraordinary new realities – sometimes born from unlikely places – and we make them happen.
From university campuses to CBD’s, greenfield sites to heavy industrial precincts, when we take on a project, we imagine, plan and guide, but most importantly we identify and realise potential. The result is the creation of valuable, sustainable, and enduring assets.
We shape the projects that shape our communities.
Our Approach
We know that the greatest opportunity for lifetime value creation occurs in a project’s formative phases. To achieve superior development outcomes for our clients we follow a progressive, disciplined process that focuses on opportunity maximisation whilst identifying, mitigating or eliminating risk.
Our processes have been honed over the past 25 years, working for some of the country’s leading property and development companies. We blend free-thinking with rigorous execution to imagine what’s possible and then make it happen.
Our Team
The diverse experiences of our team shape us as a company, allowing us to bring unique perspectives, principles, and practices to each project. We know what it takes to assemble the right team of experienced property specialists, at the right time, for each project.
