Aurora Residence in South Yarra, designed by We Are Triibe with Rob Mills Architecture, sits high above the Royal Botanical Gardens, its name evoking ethereal light and a sense of renewal. Expansive proportions, statement skylights and a tranquil palette create a refined gallery-like home. The living area flows seamlessly between moments of gathering and quiet reflection. A sculptural timber desk bridges living and work spaces, while deeper tones of forest green and blackened timber define an intimate kitchen and fireside zone. The result is a sophisticated sanctuary that harmonises daily rhythms with warmth, connection and a sense of calm.

Nordic elements appear in the Douglas pine and Calacatta Viola marble kitchen, while soft arches and curved volumes shape the guest room and bathrooms. The main suite offers a calming palette, sculptural detailing and a sense of playful elegance.
