Located in the heart of a thriving suburb, the Confluence Apartments a stone’s throw away from Camberwell Junction.
The project re-imagines the classic character of the existing streetscape in a contemporary form. Rising 6 storeys high, the building is flanked on street level with a generous commercial space with glazed shopfront wrapping the majority of the Riversdale Road frontage. On the floors above, only 12 luxury apartments are created within the articulated building envelope that marries the brick language of the existing heritage-rich context with modern design and material nuances.
Featuring open plan living that flows out to private balconies, each of these boutique apartments takes full advantage of north facing natural light and south facing views of the bustling streets below. The views from the generously sized apartments capture panoramas of the city skyline to the West and the Dandenong ranges to the East.
