New York Style Penthouse in Geelong

In today’s post we would like to share this amazing project revealred recently by Watson Young Architects.  It is an exclusive New York inspired penthouse on the 22nd floor of Geelong’s tallest building (Australia). The apartment is the jewel in the crown of the $40 million-dollar Morphy-Birrell Property Group and Morris Property Group development. The boutique design composition delineates the luxury of New York apartment living. Featuring original designer fittings, the open plan design is encompassed by surrounded by 180° picturesque bay views.

The one-of-a-kind architectural design sought inspiration from some of New York’s finest, and features exclusive interiors such as:

• A 3m long curved marble island bench, raised and illuminating ceiling coffers
• White-lime washed parquet flooring, marble and fluted glass paired with pale veneers
• Bathrooms tiled floor to ceiling in marble
• A bespoke floor to ceiling paneled leather bedhead 180-degree views to the sailboats in the bay

Watson Young Architects Associate, Tas Tzoulis, said: “Geelong is fast becoming notable as a burgeoning city of opportunity, so it was easy for Watson Young Architects to draw a direct parallel between the City by the bay, and the city that never sleeps. The fittings, lines and architecture were all designed to perfectly complement the stunning views of the only north facing city in Victoria, while also providing the experience of feeling like you have stepped straight into an apartment in Manhattan.” James Morphy, Morphy-Birrell Property Group Developer said: “The Miramar building was a 5-year project designed to transform the modern experience of Central Geelong, a feat that we believe that we achieved through the intricate design of the penthouse.” The Miramar building will be home to private residential dwellings and boutique retails stores.
