From an acclaimed collaboration between Mim Design, Parallel Workshop and Jack Merlo, Sculpt presents a masterfully crafted collection of Hawthorn homes.

Elegant
Architecture

Inspired by the surrounding architectural character, the palette is composed predominantly of neutral brick and bronze detailing, fostering an organic, timeless and texturally rich aesthetic. Cultivating an enriching indoor-outdoor living experience, the façade integrates expansive voids that serve as generous, sheltered balconies – useable throughout the entirety of the year. Elevating this seamless connection to the landscape, floor-to-ceiling windows capture breathtaking views while infusing the façade with a dynamic sense of reflectivity.

An unparalleled design vision, where classic meets contemporary.

A masterclass in modern craftsmanship, Sculpt translates the elegance of classical architecture into a contemporary and dynamic composition. The building's sculptural form exudes an aura of sophistication and elegance, harmonising the past and present in a singular expression. This unwavering commitment to timeless design resonates throughout the interiors, where the marriage of pure materiality and refined detailing creates an unparalleled living experience.

“Inspired by Hawthorn's aura, Sculpt aspires to seamlessly integrate nature into luxury living. The design responds artistically to its surroundings, employing an approach akin to the artistry of sculptors. Each apartment form undergoes a meticulous process of carving and sculpting, resulting in a refined curation of living experiences set atop the picturesque Scotch Hill.”
