35 Spring Street
Project: Bates Smart
Build: CBUS Property

With the Treasury Gardens an enviable front yard, and the urban playground of Flinders lane right next door, 35 Spring Street is Melbourne’s most prestigious residential address.
A timeless contribution to Melbourne’s city skyline.
Uniquely positioned where park meets the city, the building is located within one of Melbourne’s most culturally and historically significant precincts. Architects Bates Smart’s design essence comprises a sophisticated composition of forms that will stand as a timeless contribution to Melbourne’s city skyline; a visually arresting interpretation of its history and style.
Inspired by a Flinders Lane legacy.
The vertical and horizontal patterns of the building’s facade create a woven veil inspired by the legacy of the Flinders Lane garment trade and the civic masonry of Spring Street. The rich textures and patterns formed by the facade provide a clear contrast to the surrounding buildings, clearly defining it as an exclusive residential address.
Retreat meets inner city living.
Located on level 9 are amenities akin to a world-class hotel, creating a truly exquisite well being environment that provides a sanctuary within the city. A stunning collection of Atelier Vierkant planters and Tribu products line the floor to ceiling windows, where relaxation retreat meets inner city living.
