Sky Place captures what’s possible when bold design meets client-centred thinking. Set high above Melbourne with sweeping views of the city skyline, this elevated apartment became the canvas for a transformative renovation led by Cantilever.

The project began with the idea of a more social kitchen and evolved into a full interior refresh, including a new K2 kitchen, butler’s pantry, bar, fireplace refurbishment, and a full lighting and furniture fitout. Our sculptural Nebulae Pendants and Chandeliers, Ora Desk Lamp, Hearth Lounge, Breeze and Noon Coffee Tables were selected to help define the large open-plan interior with richness, form, and warmth.

A custom bar, pantry, and fireplace were detailed to echo the material palette and expressive form of the kitchen. Repetition of rich, dark colours, powdercoat finishes and bold natural stone tied the spaces together, enhanced by Ross Gardam’s Nebulae lighting, which links the kitchen to the dining and lounge zones. “I wanted to create intimacy and a relationship between the activity zones,” says Kylie. “The thought emerged of connecting kitchen, dining and living spaces through a sculptural intersection of lights.”

More than an aesthetic transformation, Sky Place was shaped around the real, daily lives of its occupants. From enabling smoother mealtimes for the family’s daughter Mia to creating a space ideal for entertaining, it demonstrates what’s possible through thoughtful, responsive design. As Kylie reflects, “My hope is always to create spaces that flow harmoniously into each other. I look to material and colour flow to assist the transitions.”
