Demardi Pty Ltd Project 1

Designed by Tom Eckersley Architects and constructed by Demardi, this striking Carlton apartment is the epitome of modern, minimalistic living. Characterised by clean, simple spaces and durable, hardwearing materials, this impressive abode monopolises natural light with an effective layout choice, a bright colour palette of soft grey and white, and a clever use of mirrors.

Stepping onto beautiful oak flooring upon entry, the mind is immediately put at ease as it ventures through the wide hallway, met with sleek joinery finishes and an array of neutral colours to calm the senses. The centralised kitchen is replete with effective storage options, including overhead cabinets, under-bench drawers, and expansive cupboards. With a stunning Signorino stone benchtop, mirror splashback and Astra Walker fittings, this compact kitchen is of the highest quality.

Floorspace is truly maximised within this clever design, with carefully integrated joinery that connects the kitchen, laundry and bathroom spaces within a single minimalistic box. Valuing homeowner convenience, a second joinery fitting was added to create a unique kitchen study nook. Effortlessly concealed behind bi-fold doors, the study nook is perfectly situated within the apartment’s core, characterised by ample desk space and overhead shelving.

Connection to the outdoors is easily maintained within this stellar apartment. The living area’s aptly placed fold-out doors open directly to the balcony, offering stunning park views and floods of natural light. Meanwhile, the bathroom is the ultimate lavish retreat with its elegant, dark-grey stone walls and flooring, marble basin and dual showerhead options.
