The Glebe Park Penthouse by designer Vanessa Hawes and architect Paul Tilse creates a serene, emerald oasis above Glebe Park.
Throughout the Penthouse, the lush green tones of the one-of-a-kind Da Vinci Quartzite are on verdant display. This spectacular stone, with its striking veins of gold, captures the essence of a natural spring beneath the shade of trees, providing vibrant focal points within the home. The careful curation of colour is further complemented by the custom-painted ‘Ramshed’ colour joinery and burnished brass tapware, which not only highlight the gold veins within the quartzite but also add a touch of refined elegance to the space.
In contrast, the calm grey hues of Tundra Limestone form a visual harmony in the living area, turning this space into a relaxing sanctuary atop the city. The limestone’s subtle textures and soft colour palette provide a soothing counterpoint to the dynamic quartzite, ensuring that every element within the penthouse is balanced and beautifully integrated.
Using vibrant colours that elicit a profound sense of calm, the Glebe Park Penthouse celebrates its surroundings, effortlessly integrating the serene beauty of the outdoors into the home.
