Luxmile Group's latest apartment development Vitae, a Latin word meaning or pertaining to life, is coming to life, currently under construction on its prime Dandenong Road site in <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/armadale-vic">Armadale</a>.

The project promises to offer residents a tranquil retreat amidst the hustle and bustle of the city.

Comprising just 14 apartments, Vitae stands out with its soft and sweeping curves, exuding a sense of elegance and sophistication. The meticulous attention to landscaping further enhances the living environment, creating a space that feels light, airy, and harmoniously integrated with nature.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=25565 project_image_fid=58959]

Designed by Ascui &amp; Co, in collaboration with landscape architect Jack Merlo, the apartments at Vitae have been thoughtfully crafted to seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor living. With a focus on maximising natural light, ventilation, and breathtaking views, each apartment is positioned as a corner residence, ensuring that residents can relish in the beauty of their surroundings.

The development offers a mix of two and three-bedroom corner apartments, each featuring outdoor spaces and secure car parking. Two penthouses are also on offer, catering to those seeking an elevated level of luxury and exclusivity.

Each apartment is flooded with natural light and has cross-flow ventilation and views from every corner. Wide corridors and softened corners contribute to an effortless, airy feel, while also allowing for a seamless flow of light and space throughout the residences.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=25565 project_image_fid=58960]

Nestling in one of Malvern&rsquo;s leafiest pockets, King Bird Development&rsquo;s, Contour presents a boutique collection of residences designed by Ascui &amp; Co. Architects.

The sculpted homes are an embodiment of their address, inspired by the organic beauty of nature, with all of Malvern&rsquo;s cultural delights within reach.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29091 project_image_fid=81617]

With consideration for site and neighbourhood context, Ascui &amp; Co. have envisioned a design that gives back to its occupants, nurturing an effortless and elevated living experience.

Combining understated materiality, a sweeping form and inherently practical planning, Contour delivers a collection of two and three-bedroom residences to Melbourne&rsquo;s inner suburbs.

Ascui &amp; Co. are a Melbourne-based firm who are often inspired by the curve motif &ndash; a design language they utilise with precision.

This is exemplified by Contour&rsquo;s rounded edges and the sinuous wave-like elements tracing the periphery of the building, reminiscent of nature&rsquo;s organic forms.

Situated on a corner site, the fa&ccedil;ade follows the natural path of the land, with its soft, rounded edges complimented by a series of contours, sweeping from one face to the other, giving definition to the balconies, slabs and large glazed windows throughout the project.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29091 project_image_fid=81619]

Contour is expressed in a simple materiality, with white concrete and deep grey metals providing a counterpoint to the verdant garden setting.

Ascui &amp; Co. Director, Gonzalo Ascui, said light was paramount to the design of Contour, drawing it deeply into the internal spaces through vast expanses of glass, in addition to the expansive terraces and balconies fostering a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living, while affording panoramic views of the leafy streetscape as well.

&ldquo;There is an elegant softness to the building &ndash; we&rsquo;ve avoided rigidity and sharp lines. The building curves around the corner site, following the natural path of the land. Sinuous wave-like elements trace the form of the building, sweeping from one face to the other in a flowing gesture,&rdquo; said Ascui.

Curated again by the Melburnians, Ascui &amp; Co., the interiors reflect the sophistication of the architecture.

Each space has been generously appointed, boasting high-end finishes with rich textures, creating a sense of open grandeur to th&nbsp; interiors that brightens everyday life and allows residents&nbsp;to connect with the outdoor environment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29091 project_image_fid=81622]

Chosen from the industry&rsquo;s most trusted suppliers and creators, apartments are home to a collection of considered finishes and touches, including natural stones, engineered European Oak herringbone timber floors, soft 100 per cent polyamide carpets, textured joinery, ribbed feature tiles and glass elements.

&ldquo;Together, these premium materials create an aesthetic of timeless sophistication while gifting a low-maintenance lifestyle and unrivalled durability.&rdquo;

Recognising the importance of first impressions, Ascui &amp; Co. curated a considered and inviting apartment entrance.

A robust stone plinth, with a built-in draw, presents a place for things like ornaments, indoor plants, keys and letters, backlit for a striking effect with a curved mirror, creating an air of elegance while the layout of the floorboards emulates the experience of a hallway.

Contour&rsquo;s living room presents a sunny and expansive setting, adorned in a palette of luxurious yet neutral finishes, complete with a fireplace.

Defined by floor-to-ceiling windows, the open-plan living room is awash with abundant natural light and verdant vistas of the landscaping and surrounding treetops, in addition to a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29091 project_image_fid=81616]

Housed within stone joinery, the fireplace creates a cosy atmosphere as well as efficiently heating the space, while engineered timber Herringbone floors provide the perfect base for living.

Ascui &amp; Co. have featured contoured edges at the apartment entrance and in the island bench, evoking an instant air of continuity, where elements of the exterior have been translated within to enhance the unique language of the design

Contour&rsquo;s generous kitchen is the heart of the home, fitted out by a functional design and abundant storage, as well as premium appliances and finishes, from solid quartzite to fluted glass.

Entering the space, the solid quartzite stone island bench instantly draws in the eye, distinguished by the same sweeping contour seen on the facade and at the apartment entrance.&nbsp;

Full-height joinery with a wood grain texture has been paired with elegant fluted glass cabinetry, bringing a sleek and modern feel to the palette, along with a suite of premium Gaggenau appliances.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29091 project_image_fid=81618]

&ldquo;Walking into these spaces, the curves are a visual delight. They blend and bend space, allowing light to flow around the corner, coming right into the room and illuminating the finishes,&rdquo; Ascui added.

Stepping into the bedrooms, featuring fluid curved walls and ample sunlight, the master bedroom has been designed as a private sanctuary.

Set upon plush carpet, the room is complete with a spacious walk-in-wardrobe, equipped with custom shelving and a refined fluted-glass door.

Design details: The interior decisions by Adele Bates at Melbourne’s Pace of Blackburn apartment development

Pace Development Group and Global Electric Transport have entered into an arrangement for all future Pace apartment complexes to be Electric Vehicle-ready.

Their partnership will kick off at the Pace of Blackburn residential development at 160 Whitehorse Road.

It will see GET supply and install five state-of-the-art shared charging stations for apartment residents and visitors.

Pace of Blackburn has four towers – three residential and one commercial.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7211 project_image_fid=144443]

There will be 200 apartments across the three towers. The complex will have 697 car spaces. 
 
The intent is to get ahead of the game, given the increasing expected demand for EVs which will see costly retrofitting of apartment complexes, according to Pace sales and marketing director Ashley Bramich.

“Given the increasing demand and inevitable widespread adoption of EVs it makes sense to built the concept into the design of all future developments, and avoid very costly retrofitting in the future,” Mr Bramich said.

"It won’t be long before apartments sold as EV ready will be priced at a premium," he said noting it's estimated that 40% of all cars sold in Australia by 2030 will be EVs.

"Pace is future-proofing its buildings for the benefit of our residents and the communities we develop in.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7211 project_image_fid=39984]

GET chief executive officer Harry Hamann said the recharging runs via an app with "the user interface seamless."

Pace of Blackburn is under construction with prices for one bedroom, one bathroom apartments starting from $395,000; two bedrooms from $550,000 and three bedrooms from $840,000.

Some Pace purchasers qualified for the HomeBuilder grant.

Ascui &amp; Co., headed by Gonzalo Ascui, set out to design an urban village within the triangular site.
