Burrowed into the banks of the Birrarung or Yarra River in Melbourne’s South Yarra is Como Terraces by Carr – a multi-residential development with 39 generous apartments. A modernist sanctuary, the monolithic forms appear as if carved from the site itself. Working with a 26-metre fall, the buildings subtly rotate to maximise views, mediating indoors and out, as spacious interiors spill to private terraces and gardens shaped by the landscape.
“Como Terraces evokes the feeling of an old hilltop village. It might sound unusual, but it speaks to the architecture’s sense of permanence and its harmony with the landscape. The way Como Terraces steps naturally with the terrain, the intimate public spaces, and the sense of enclosure all contribute to a timeless quality and a strong feeling of belonging.” David Brooks, Carr
Drawing on the Australian native foliage found along the river; the interiors are imbued with the same warm neutral tones for a sense of gentle grounding. A palette of travertine stone, light timber floors and joinery and sand-blasted concrete creates muted neutrals and subtle tactility. Intended as capsules for layers of personality, the interiors are deliberately subdued.
"The interiors are deliberately pared-back at Como Terraces. With such a beautiful outlook to the Yarra River, we wanted to allow the interior palette to recede against the ever-changing view of nature just outside." David Brooks, Carr
The kitchens are designed for effortless entertaining, where easy flow and circulation means no dead ends or restrictive space. An expanse of travertine pairs with V-ZUG appliances – the CombiSteamer V6000 45 and Combair V2000 60 – anchoring the reductionist aesthetic. The five-burner gas cooktop in black mirror glass features discreet electronic controls and advanced functions such as Simmer, Keep Warm or Melt – to match all types of cooking needs.
