About us
Every place has a story – remarkable and intriguing. At Central Element, its mission is to faithfully unearth these stories and translate them into places that genuinely enrich and inspire the communities they belong to. Central Element is a privately owned company that brings together the expertise of industry leaders - Wayne Chivas, Shane Smollen and Nathan Chivas. With nearly a century of combined experience, Central Element has built a strong team that has helped create a multi-billion dollar portfolio of luxury residential, mixed-use and hotel developments throughout Sydney. Central Element has delivered award-winning boutique residences across Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs and North Shore. Last year, Central Element made its debut in Sydney's Inner West with the waterfront project Bianca Drummoyne, scheduled for completion late-2025. This year sees the advancement of the heritage listed Ballamac House Coogee, mixed-use Pienza Neutral Bay and Ethos Chatswood projects, all set to be completed next year. Additionally, the team will continue to preserve and celebrate the story of West Olympia Theatre in Paddington as it transforms into a leading hotel and entertainment precinct, featuring Australia’s first 25hours hotel, opening mid-2025. Recent acquisitions include a rare Sandridge Street site in Bondi Beach set to deliver a boutique ultra-premium project and a prime parcel of land in Greenwich earmarked for a highly sought after mixed-use seniors living project. Central Element’s commitment to fostering a strong company culture and implementing innovative, sustainable development practices has earned it numerous prestigious industry accolades. Its most recent completed project, Anden Coogee, has received multiple awards, including two at the UDIA NSW 2023 Awards and a distinguished five-star rating at the Asia Pacific Property Awards 2024-25. Central Element was also recognised as one of the top 50 companies on The Australian Best Places to Work 2024 list.

From the Randwick City Council archives: Coogee, c1880s, looking across the beach toward the site of Ballamac House. This area holds a wealth of heritage and past identities, and through our renewal of Ballamac House, these stories will continue. Our goal is to preserve, interpret, and celebrate this history.
