Metaphor Design: A Restoration of Melrose Manor
Metaphor Design is hard at work on their third project with Auria Senior Living, renovating and beautifully designing a centrally located senior living community in the heart of Melrose. The transformation of a grand old building in a quiet cul-de-sac is sure to bring new life to the suburb of Melrose with a new landmark in the form of Melrose Manor.
Tucked behind the trees of Melrose, what’s to come is a beautiful and graceful soft pink jewel of a building. The interiors will be incredibly elegant but full of colour and just the right amount of extravagance.
Residents and the neighbourhood can look forward to the many advantages of this newly renovated building. From elegantly appointed studios, 1- and 2-bedroom apartments, to exceptional security, a concierge service and 24-hour on-site nursing care, Melrose Manor will provide the ideal environment for those looking to make the most of their later years.
The team from Metaphor Design are excited to be working with amazing wallpapers from Cara Saven Wall Design and Elitis, setting off against Matthew Williamson’s ornately illustrated fabrics.
Expect marble with gold edging, blooming florals tastefully curling around each corner of this grande dame! You can also read more about Metaphor Design Studio’s work on the Auria Coffee Shop here.
These renders have been done by RadioVis as a sneak peak into what’s in store. Architecture by Kunz Raubenheimer architects. Renovations are underway and set to continue post lock down.
