This Melbourne Penthouse spans three generous levels and was originally designed in 1990 by Nonda Katsalidis and Kathie Hall at Katsalidis Architects. After years of bachelor life, a much-deserving refurbishment of its original bones was inevitably owed. Together with the overhaul of the existing three bedrooms and associated living and amenity spaces, a significant brief was also added to the rooftop area.

Project Gallery

Capitalising on such coveted real estate, the rooftop works included the completion of a new landscaped area, studio and gym pavilions and additional garden entertaining areas in collaboration with Eckersley Garden Design.

At the core of the new works is a respect for the original form and design intent. Through a contemporary lens, existing design icons have been breathed new life through new upholstery and revised joinery; updated finishes, furniture and objects have animated this envious abode.
