ICONIC RIVER FRONT

ICONIC DESIGN FOR ICONIC VIEWS

Perched on the banks of the iconic Swan River in Perth, Locus is more than just a residence— it is a masterstroke of contemporary architecture and refined living. Seamlessly blending sophistication, innovation, and natural beauty, this extraordinary home was meticulously designed to inspire awe while providing a luxurious sanctuary that honors its world-class surroundings.

From the moment one arrives, Locus sets an unmistakable tone of grandeur. Its architectural lines are bold yet balanced, capturing a striking presence that complements rather than competes with the riverfront landscape. The façade is an elegant fusion of modern materials— glass, steel, and locally-sourced stone— crafted with precision to create a timeless, sculptural aesthetic. Every detail is intentional, every surface purposeful.
What truly sets Locus apart, however, is its relationship with its environment. With uninterrupted views of the Swan River from every level of the home, each room becomes a front-row seat to one of Perth’ s most prized vistas. Whether it’ s the tranquil morning light shimmering on the water or the golden hues of sunset dancing across the skyline, the ever-changing panorama is an integral part of daily life within the home. The design harnesses this spectacle with expansive terraces, frameless glass balustrades, and thoughtful sightlines that elevate every moment of occupancy.
Step inside, and you are instantly immersed in a space where design meets emotion. The interior unfolds with a fluidity that connects each space while preserving a distinct sense of purpose and intimacy. Urbane’ s design philosophy is clearly evident: form follows function, but never at the expense of beauty. High ceilings, expansive open-plan living areas, and bespoke finishes reflect a commitment to both comfort and visual excellence. Natural light floods the home through floor-to-ceiling windows, reinforcing the seamless connection between indoors and the captivating outdoors.
