MUSTERA Property Group hopes to set a new benchmark for the Perth apartment market by taking the perception of apartment living to an exciting new level and creating a distinctive building which will tailor well into the fabric of the existing community.
Mustera Property Group executive director Nick Zborowski said the vision for Forbes Residences, in the Perth suburb of Applecross, was to create a world-class development in terms of design, amenity and sustainability.

"We set out to redefine the concept of vertical living in Western Australia," Mr Mustera said.
And redefine it does, with its striking, one-of-a-kind faade, the development will defy limitations.
Working together with globally recognised, multi-award winning architectural firm WOHA and acclaimed local studio MJA, the brief was clear - to push beyond the constraints typically associated with apartment development.
MJA Studio set about creating a range of exceptional homes with luxurious finishes for residents to enjoy the epitome of Applecross living, whilst WOHA created a boutique development with a striking unmistakeable form.
With strong environmental and social principles at the forefront of the design, Forbes Residences aims to enhance the lives of its residents, plus the streetscape and community surrounding it.
The design for the cliff-like faade was inspired by WA's limestone foundations and will be softened by an abundance of calming landscaping and the leafy greenery which characterises Applecross.
This ambience will flow seamlessly through the building via a series of sky gardens and vertical trellises.
With dual aspects, cross flow ventilation and only four dwellings per floor, residents will enjoy a level of privacy on par with the area's most luxurious homes.
The residents' amenity within Forbes Residences will be comparable to a luxurious private club or exclusive resort.

The podium, overflowing with lush landscaping, will offer a heated, infinity edge swimming pool that will appear to flow seamlessly into the river and a barbecue deck for alfresco entertaining
Inside, you will be able to work out in your private gym or unwind in the elegantly appointed residents' lounge, dining room or aperitif bar.
Complementing the visionary building design, the expansive and innovative floor plans will create a light and palatial setting.
Premium materials, textures and touches will abound, while the suite of four carefully considered design schemes exude personality and style.
Offering a combination of three and four-bedroom tenancies, there are a limited number of residences remaining.
Forbes Residences is a new vision for living, for buyers not prepared to accept the compromises often associated with apartment living.
