Name: Altura
Element: Air
Why: Altura is derived from the Spanish word for “height” or “elevation.” It speaks to the home’s vertical rhythm, elevated living zones, and light-filled volumes. Rooted in the Air element, it reflects openness, clarity, and the interplay between structure and sky.
Poised across three sculptural levels on a sloped site, Altura is a residence of vertical elegance and refined materiality. Its modern façade pairs soft white render with loose stone, timber batten screening, and deep accents creating a layered composition. A recessed entry and oversized glazing introduce rhythm and transparency.
Inside, A monostringer staircase with glass balustrade anchors the central axis, connecting open-plan living zones to private retreats above. The kitchen showcases Calacatta Oro porcelain benchtops, matte cabinetry and warm timber textures, all framed by a window splashback and complimentary feature Merbau timber ceiling.
Upstairs, the master suite offers a serene escape with a freestanding bath, dual vanities, and a feature wall in Dedalus stone. Bathrooms throughout are detailed with feature tiling and Matte black fixtures.
From the wine display and butler’s pantry to the rooftop terrace and poolside alfresco, Altura is crafted for elevated living where every level reveals a new layer of light, texture, and thoughtful design.
