A collaboration between some of the most reputable players in the industry - Young Group, MAP Architecture and John Patrick Landscape Architects - has produced Custom, Highett. The pragmatic and thoughtful design boasts an environmentally conscious design, generous proportions and an abundance of natural light with open plan living areas perfect for entertaining. The high calibre 2 and 3 bedroom apartments are positioned in the vibrant heart of Highett, only 30 minutes from Melbourne CBD and amongst the very best of the beautiful Bayside.
Custom Highett qualifies for the $15k HomeBuilder Grant which is set to end on 31 March 2021. Interested parties are encouraged to act fast to take advantage of this Government incentive before the grant concludes in the coming weeks.
Each home at Custom Highett has been designed to reflect the Victorian Government’s ‘Better Apartment Design Standards’, ensuring every residence is spacious, intelligently designed and of the highest quality.
Expertly crafted to promote sustainable living, Custom Highett features a host of environmentally conscious features seamlessly integrated into the building design to offer a considered living experience for the present and future. The eco-conscious suite of features include effective natural ventilation integrated within the architecture, rainwater harvesting tanks cleverly hidden beneath the facade, water efficient tapware and fixtures, as well as multiple low emission finishes throughout.
Full-height, double glazed windows welcome in streams of natural light while assisting in reducing noise and improving insulation - the single feature contributing to lower power usage and increased passive thermal regulation. Similarly, the team’s decision to utilise locally sourced materials showcase the project’s commitment to reducing the carbon footprint of the construction whilst actively supporting the local economy.
These, and many additional features ensure Custom Highett boasts an overall NatHERS rating of 6 stars - offering residents up to 30% savings on monthly utility bills.
“Sustainability is now so much more than a buzz word to the off-the-plan purchasers. A project’s sustainability values are often the difference between a buyer proceeding with an apartment or townhouse or continuing their property search.”
Leonard Teplin, Marshall White Projects.
The sophisticated facade combines an artfully curated living space to facilitate the best quality of life for all Custom Highett residents.
“We’ve designed the facade so the multiple parts combine to form one cohesive whole. This element was inspired by the many facets of the community, which come together to form a unique local character. The building is also an embodiment of the individual lifestyle that will unfold within Custom, creating brand new community.”
Renato Picciani, MAP Architecture & Design
