Franklin Residence is a penthouse apartment located in the heart of Melbourne CBD with close proximity to Queen Victoria Market and Melbourne Central.

Whilst the floor layout is largely functional and generous, (and let’s not forget that gorgeous panoramic view of Melbourne Skyline) the penthouse was desperately needing a refresh in the look and feel department. Pitch had the opportunity to reimagine this fabulous home in the sky.

The brief and design intent was extremely simple, instead of going on a joinery of extravagance, the client simply wanted something cozy and functional.

The focus was on the new kitchen, which we had completely recreated to provide a space for gathering and a space that you can cook with a view. The old U shape kitchen was gone, and a new central island bench is created and orientated towards the beautiful eastern city view. On one end of the island, a lowered half circle bench was introduced to offer a seated dining experience rather than a quick breakfast bar.
