How did a young property developer create the leading media brand for Australia’s property development industry?

And – at the same time – start an acclaimed property development business?

That’s the story of Adam Di Marco.

He’s the co-founder of The Urban Developer which delivers news, events and education to Australia’s property development industry.

Media aside, Adam is also the founder of the Di Marco Group.

The Di Marco Group develops design-led apartments and mixed-use buildings in Brisbane.

Based in Helsinki, Newil & Bau has built a cult-like following amongst the city’s smart set.

That’s thanks to their track record of developing elegant (and superbly crafted) apartments.

And the fact that their buildings are of architectural significance.

For example, they’re currently renovating an historic building designed by Alvar Aalto.

And constructing a new apartment building by acclaimed American architect, Steven Holl.

And which reward the developer with a solid financial return?
