Brunswick VIC 3056

In the beginning, there was an idea. A vision. A community inspired building where people not only enjoyed living but flourished. A building that set a new tone that would transform the concept of an environmentally sustainable home into one of the most transformative and pioneering developments. A place where genuine long-lasting friendships are made, ideas are shared, people are respected and engaged. The Commons, designed by the multi award winning Breathe Architecture, has been copied, emulated and imitated but never repeated. There will only be one original building aptly named, The Commons. This apartment is perfectly positioned on the third floor with sweeping views of the recently competed Bulleke-Bek Park and Playground and surrounding areas. The interior blends the charm and character of an industrial warehouse with the latest modern comforts, all without comprising the buildings core philosophy, genuine environmentally sustainable living, and the lowest possible carbon dioxide footprint. The exterior façade is timeless, and blends recycled bricks from the original warehouse with the warmth of natural timber (also reclaimed). This theme continues within the apartment with lofty raw concrete ceilings, timber hardwood floorboards, copper, brass, steel, and raw timber blending seamlessly to create a beautiful home. The entire rooftop provides a great communal meeting place and incorporates individual timber planter boxes to grow your own herbs and veggies with views of Melbourne’s city skyline. The rooftop garden and north facing vertical vegetation counters the urban heat island effect and naturally cools the building.
