Melbourne, Australia
Architects Ben Edwards and Juliet Moore’s Micro-Luxe apartment is part hotel, part showroom, part unique shopping experience. Located in the Melbourne suburb of Fitzroy, Edwards Moore rents out the newly renovated studio on Airbnb. Everything inside this small but perfectly formed urban retreat, including the kitchen appliances, art and bed linen, are available to buy online via an iPad in the apartment. The purpose-made kitchen in the intimate open-plan space has been demarcated by the use of raw steel, which complements an external steel pivot door that provides entry to a small courtyard garden. micro-luxe.com
