Here’s a golden opportunity to check into an investment that ticks all the boxes – location, quality, facilities, soaring architecture and modern landmark status. A 101-storey tower comprising luxury residences ranging from a one-bedroom unit to a whole-floor penthouse, and with all-round panoramic views to match, this is a home where you can ‘play above the clouds and dance with the stars’ whilst enjoying an incredible level of comfort.
Australia’s second biggest city and cultural capital
Melbourne is where you want to be, for its international appeal, world-renowned educational institutions and a lively urban landscape enriched by a multi-cultural lifestyle. By 2030, it is predicted to be the nation’s largest city, with a population of over six million, and it’s a fact of life that migrants and international students have consistently selected Melbourne as the country’s top destination. For seven consecutive years, it has also topped the charts of the highly respected Economist Intelligence Unit as the world’s most liveable city, judged on categories such as political stability, healthcare, culture, environment, education and infrastructure.
And Southbank…
is your preferred locale – a bustling waterfront hub of trendy boutiques, art galleries, theatres, bars, restaurants – not to mention the Crown Melbourne, boasting Australia’s largest casino, an integrated resort, with luxury shopping and entertainment facilities. Sited along the famous Yarra River and close to the CBD, the vibrant area enjoys the best of both worlds for work and play, and with well-served public transport, getting around is a cinch. For those who enjoy their walks, the locality’s attractive parks and sports venues are nearby. Australia 108 could not have asked for a better location, or more agreeable neighbours, and its close proximity to such a vibrant district would only enhance its appeal to investors and home-owners.
Architectural and design excellence
To be completed in 2020, Australia 108 is a phenomenal 101-storey skyscraper comprising 1,103 Sky Rise Residences and Cloud Residences offering world-class luxury living. The development’s dramatic silhouette is accentuated by a stunning sculptural built form, with integrated lighting that envelops the façade whilst highlighting the building’s curves. Rising to a height of 319m, it will go down in history as the southern hemisphere’s tallest residential building, with a unique glass tower façade marked by a distinctive crystal-cut golden ‘Starburst’ on the 70th and 71st storeys, a unique feature that is expected to set the development apart from others.
Inspired by the Federation Star on the national flag, the ‘Starburst’ is renowned architecture firm Fender Katsalidis’ way of providing sculptural exuberance and, on a clear night, can be seen from a long distance away – just like a beacon on a light-house!
Be spoilt for amenities
To add to its unique position, the ‘Starburst’ floors, totalling 30,000 sq ft, house the elegant Star Club for the use of residents and their friends. Affording 360-degree views of the city, gardens and bay area, the Club is also replete with awesome dual double-height full-glass infinity pools, a fully-equipped gym, sky garden, private dining rooms and lounges. At a height of 210m, the Club floors must be one of the highest of its kind in Australia, offering residents a lifestyle literally amongst the clouds!
At Level 11 of the tower, even more amenities such as a theatrette, lap pool, sauna and steam room, golf simulator, outdoor deck and entertainment space are provided.

Many of the amenities on level 71, exclusively for Cloud Residences, can be credited to hospitality design firm Hirsch Bedner Associates, a respected name whose expert planning and execution skills have long been known and appreciated for their unparalleled level of contemporary luxury.
