The private terrace is the place to be as twilight paints the sky and the coloured lights of Braddon come aglow in the emerging darkness. Think gathering with the whole gang, table set for plenty, champagne flowing, the magical atmosphere of looking out and over the vibrant happenings of Lonsdale Street.

This spacious two-bedroom apartment floats above Braddon, on the second floor of the artful Branx building that pays homage to NY and Sesame Street! Ultra-lush, tactile interiors manage a cheeky mash-up of the old and the new, as decorative wainscoting and federation style pressed tin meets black steel, stone and sleek laminate surfaces. Bold circular shapes usher in a vivacious spirit, as floating oak floors, and a bright white palette add to the overall mood of post-modern sophistication and drama.

The Branx, designed by Bulum Group, contributes a fun, energetic vibe to the city scene. The façade, is made up of a playful series of circular and oval shapes, bordered by climbing vines. The portico, a series of origami, folded panels, shelters and shades the independent, cafés and shops that occupy the street level.

The home defies expectations as open plan living is edged with banks of Crittal windows that capture light and aspect, gifting effortless flow to alfresco living. The kitchen flashes silver, as pressed tin combines with the warmth of stone and oak accents. Smeg appliances, recessed porcelain kitchen sink, white Laminex cabinetry, enrich this gorgeous space - think, getting creative in the kitchen, a cosy gathering of friends, moody black sheers tempering the beckoning lights of the city.

Two generous bedrooms with floor to ceiling, mirrored built-in-wardrobes and two bathrooms complete the peaceful sleeping zone. Both bathrooms are finished minimally with mosaic tiling lending texture and matt-black hardware gifting a punch of black, offset by warm timber cabinetry. The master bedroom floats a romantic tub in one corner and the second bedroom seamlessly incorporates a study nook.

Step outside and you are greeted by all the creative vitality of Braddon by day or night…great coffee, food, drinks, exercise, community. Think, morning brew from Barrio Collective, lunch with friends at Elemental Café after yoga, artisan ceramics from Timber and Tailor, and gorgeous blooms from Moxom and Whitney…it's all at your doorstep. The charms of Dickson, Ainslie, and O'Connor shops are all close to hand and it is just a few steps to the light rail and an easy stroll to the CBD. A surrounding of tranquil green spaces is perfect for restorative nature bathing, creative contemplation.
