Elegance in the sky
PA L AT I A L L I V I N G
HIGH ABOVE THE REST
A boutique development just four kilometres from Melbourne’s city centre, Palatia allows residents to
enjoy an inner city lifestyle without compromising on space. Each unique ‘sky home’ occupies an entire
floor, offering space, serenity and freedom to enjoy.
From within, the well-appointed spaces suggest you’re in a freestanding home – until you see the view.
Palatia’s residences include large living areas, four generous bedrooms and high ceilings. For those who
enjoy a touch of the outdoors, each of Palatia’s homes includes a sizeable balcony and patio space that’s
perfect for entertaining, relaxing or quiet reflection. The sheer size of the outdoor spaces at Palatia is a
rarity in such a prestigious location, and is one of the things that make this development so unique.
For those who enjoy aquatic pursuits, our ground floor and penthouse apartments also include
swimming pools in their own private garden or rooftop.
Palatia’s upper floors offer breathtaking views of the bay, the city, or nearby Albert Park Lake. Clever
landscaping ensures every level of the building enjoys lush greenery, thanks to vertical gardens and
deep planters.
Security is of the utmost importance at Palatia, with a secure lobby entrance and restricted access to
each floor. Each apartment also includes two car spaces in a secure remote controlled basement.

Custom created in collaboration with renowned landscape architects Aspect Studios, the Palatia
façade is beautifully lush with greenery and timber elements. Every level has deep planters and
climbers positioned at unique angles, creating a vertical garden effect to add a dynamic and
environmentally conscious aesthetic to the building.
The concept behind the garden aspects at Palatia is one of harmony and consciousness.
The development’s gardens seamlessly transition into its built forms, with the plants
themselves sustained by rainwater, irrigated through a clever series of tanks.
Stretching across the length of Palatia’s exterior, a vertical ‘sky garden’ adorns the entire 12
storeys of the building, complementing balconies and covering utilities such as elevator shafts
in an attractive and innovative way.
In addition to the greenery within Palatia’s grounds, the leafy aspect of the street below, in
particular its lush nature strip, is visible from every residence. These ‘street trees’ add an
element of warm, neighbourly beauty akin to that of illustrious Melbourne suburbs Hawthorn
and Brighton.

Palatia gives its residents room to breathe and move, with generous proportions
giving way to ceiling heights of up to 2.8 metres. A bespoke fireplace provides elegant
ambiance in colder months, while large terraces featuring built-in barbecues
are perfect for entertaining in summer.
Adding to the open, refined feel of each residence are stone elements and
custom-selected, designer lighting, complemented by the highest quality timber floors.
Handcrafted joinery supports the emphasis on craftsmanship in all aspects of each
Palatia residence, complete with large storage areas and Miele cooking appliances.
To ensure that every moment spent in the sky is comfortable, ducted reverse cycle air
conditioning warms or cools the air to your specifications.
Designed to the highest specifications for those who are truly discerning, the quality in
every aspect of Palatia’s construction is undeniable – and utterly enjoyable.
