Nestled in Mont Albert's serene landscape, Kodawari epitomizes a bespoke community lifestyle, reflecting a meticulous design philosophy beyond the ordinary.

Kodawari is a residential development comprised of 5 homes located in a suburban area of Melbourne. The living rooms in these residences are fully open and have numerous sources of light and ventilation. Its simplicity inspires the building design in form, with clean lines consistently echoed in every building corner detail. Gently clothed with palatable duo tones of the external building finishes, the building design is defined by its enduring elegance and grace in contemporary architecture.

The other highlight of these residences is the unifying spatial structure with a focal view on its private gardens to strengthen the connection between inhabitants and nature. The Japanese-inspired landscape encourages relaxation and self-healing. These gardens are well intertwined with internal living designed to comfort families of any size and age, catering to generational living.

Another masterpiece that harnesses both home-life quality and luxury living that surpasses traditional residences.
