(Melbourne, Australia)
By Freadman White & Marcello Donati (Anon Studio)

With the aim to discover new ways of living & new forms of construction, F.W & M.D designed 11 residences by blending artisanal practices with craft & attention to detail

1/3

The exterior acknowledges the history of the buildings surrounding it, especially the classical elements. However, each of the eleven apartments (interiors) were designed to have a & #39;different personality& #39;, specifically catered to suit the needs of a variety of occupants.

2/3

The icing on the cake is the 2-bedroom penthouse, reminiscent of a traditional courtyard house, with curved glazing wrapping around a private rooftop courtyard. The pink & green terrazzo flooring caters to the owner& #39;s eclectic furniture collection
