A RMA se orgulha de ter a oportunidade de projetar um grande edifício de apartamentos neste local raro e bem conservado, em frente ao famoso Royal Botanic Gardens de Melbourne.
Rob Mills
O desafio deste local era que ele estava cercado em ambos os lados por edifícios envidraçados que voltados para a propriedade - então o design tinha que entregar privacidade, bem como conservar a vista dos jardins.
Com base nas lições da Armadale Residence, Rob Mills introduziu paredes de lâmina maciças para agir como lanternas e trouxe luz de cima através do uso de clarabóias generosas.
Os três apartamentos voltados para o parque têm varandas cobertas, com vista direta para a área verde do entorno, enquanto o enorme terraço na cobertura é completo com piscina e jardim.
As regras de construção, que permite recursos arquitetônicos acima de 12 metros, foi maximizado para aumentar a qualidade do projeto do prédio.
Além disso, a parte traseira permite acesso ao prédio de apartamentos de quatro andares que será adjacente ao principal prédio de três principais apartamentos voltados para o parque.


















For the mid-level apartment, roof windows bring light and space within, while residents also enjoy views towards the treeline of the Botanic Gardens. Beneath, the ground floor apartment delivers a more direct relationship with nature, connecting seamlessly to a private garden.
The graceful lines of the exterior and the sculptural design of the interiors feature curved walls that allow light to travel easily. Steel-framed glass doors soften transitions and enhance the volumes of spaces that feel both generous and enveloping.
The material selection connects visually with the natural world outside, such as in the richly-veined natural stone or the textures of the polished plaster walls. Lush rugs and flowing fabrics introduce softness, while the timber flooring laid in a plank style is finished in hard wax oil to heighten its organic, earthy quality.
Even within its tightly held urban context, the design was carefully considered to connect residents to greenery—whether a private garden or views to the stately treelines of Melbourne’s Royal Botanic Gardens—and ultimately to encourage a life lived more mindfully.
