La Storia

by M3 GROUP

Architect & Project Manager

A collaboration with SMEG, SubZero and Astra Walker, La Storia is a limited series of only 20 residences plus one penthouse; a thoughtful, considered residential building designed to pay homage to both Carlton and Italy. Located at the corner of Cardigan and Pelham Street, La Storia finds its home on the park lined streets of Carlton. It represents the history and journey of a hard-working, inner-city suburb. A place where rich migrant stories have been lived and told, and Melbourne’s café culture was born and thrived, and became part of the city’s DNA.

A multi-storey residential building with a geometric facade, including large balconies.
