Designed by Kerry Phelan and Stephen Javens of K.P.D.O. in collaboration with Woods Bagot, Gordon Place represents a return to the first principles of architecture and design. Combining clear, logical planning with expressive materials and attention to detail, the team have arrived at a design that provides the generosity and amenity of larger, stand-alone homes. Comprising mostly two and three bedroom apartments, many of the homes connect directly to private courtyards or balconies.

Designed in collaboration with with global multi-disciplinary design studio, Woods Bagot, Gordon Place embraces the proportions of its streetscape and is crafted from a simple masonry palette with natural clay-toned accents. This timeless and understated building exudes a quiet grandeur—a sense of belonging reinforced by expansive green views and a direct connection to Gordon Street.

Grounded in a deep appreciation for the first principles of design, K.P.D.O.'s approach to Gordon Place embodies considered planning, expressive materials, and meticulous detailing. Disciplined floorplans maximise spatial potential and natural light, while a neutral base palette grounds each space, allowing richer materials, colors, and textures to shine. Thoughtful and emotive, K.P.D.O. spaces exude subtlety and strength, leaving a lasting impression.

The Elsternwick Gardens neighbourhood comprises expansive private gardens, hospitality space, integrated arts program and a public park, alongside three distinct residential offerings: Gordon Place, Ripponlea Terrace and The Garden Pavilion. While each offering centres on an individual and site-specific design, all homes are tailored for owner-occupiers and will be built to the highest standard, a quality synonymous with Milieu. Designed as a natural extension of Rippon Lea Estate, the generous gardens are integrated seamlessly with the architecture to strengthen the sense of tranquillity that underscores the neighbourhood’s design.

Founded by Kerry Phelan and Stephen Javens in 2010, K.P.D.O. is an interior design and architecture studio with offices in Melbourne and Sydney. With decades of experience in the high-end residential sector, all K.P.D.O. projects strike a balance between exuberance and restraint. Woods Bagot is a global multi-disciplinary design studio. Working on projects of various scale, the practice draws on the skills, intelligence and curiosity of its diverse international team to deliver the best outcomes for their buildings’ occupants.
