Name: Alcora – Inspired by “alcor” (Latin for elevation or prominence) and subtly evocative of architectural rhythm and vertical layering.
Element: Earth
Why: Alcora reflects the project’s grounded strength, sculpted asymmetry, and contemporary grace.
Inspired by the architecture and lifestyle of the Mediterranean, this extraordinary residence captures the warmth, elegance, and natural beauty of its surroundings.
With a commanding street presence, the home emerges from the landscape, a striking gatehouse entry and a sparkling swimming pool. A widened entry door opens into a dramatic double height ceiling void, crowned by a circular skylight that bathes the space in natural light.
At the heart of the home lies an entertainer’s dream kitchen, anchored by a 5 metres long cooking bench and a sculptural island finished in Celest Dolomite stone. The indoor spaces echo the natural vitality of the outdoors, with a Linea brick wall creating a seamless connection between the kitchen and alfresco area.
A stunning arched, double sided TV and living unit introduces the home’s soft, curved design language from the moment you enter. The open dining area is crowned by a soaring 6 metres ceiling void, accented by a statement pendant light. A built in bar and dining buffet unite the kitchen, dining, and living zones into one fluid and functional space.
Upstairs, the master suite is a private sanctuary of luxury. A built in library and display wall add warmth and personalisation, while the custom bedhead wall features a concealed door that opens into a walk in robe and opulent ensuite. The ensuite showcases large-format travertine-look tiles (1200x600mm), a curved feature wall and a round freestanding bathtub positioned beneath a skylight for a spa like experience.
