Bringing a visionary master-planned community to life takes passion, expertise, and a shared commitment to something truly special. At Océane, this begins with the leadership of founder and developer Kingsley Andrew, whose vision has inspired a team of industry-leading experts to help bring this project to life. From sales and marketing to design and development, every team member plays a role in shaping Océane, a coastal village reimagined for modern living.
Each expert brings something unique to the table, and together, they’re transforming a bold vision into a thriving community defined by connection, design excellence, and a lifestyle unlike any other.
From the early planning stages, to branding, architecture, construction and sales, the people behind Océane are united by a shared belief: that this project is more than a development… it’s a lifestyle, unlimited.
Purposeful Planning
Marcus Rolfe from URPS leads the planning efforts, ensuring every step of the development aligns with community needs and environmental considerations. Marcus brings both strategic insight and practical expertise to the planning process, ensuring every decision supports Océane’s long-term vision… A master-planned community that’s thoughtful, liveable, and progressive.
Whenever someone has an idea, we stop, interrogate that idea, and convert it into action and design outcomes on the ground.

Engineering the Foundations
Leading the civil design team is Mitchell Bowley from TMK Consulting Engineers. Mitchell sees Océane as “a true master-planned community” featuring fully benched and retained lots, ready for residents to build their dream homes. The proposed integrated village design – with a café, microbrewery, and open green spaces – sets a new standard for lifestyle-focused developments.
Surveying with Precision
Mark Williams from Alexander Symonds ensures spatial accuracy across the site. Having worked on some of the state’s largest master-planned communities he highlights the proposed generous landscaped verges and street tree plantings as standout features defining the key pedestrian connections throughout the community.
Along with the village precinct, they’ll help create a community where neighbours meet and friendships flourish.
