From its prime spot in this burgeoning suburb, Summus is a striking new residential project for Maribyrnong.

Developed by Orion International, Summus comprises three residential elements featuring impeccably designed one, two and three bedroom apartments, terraces and penthouses in a range of sizes and layouts. Design expertise comes courtesy of leading Doig Architects, whose holistic approach to built environments shines here.

Throughout these residences, from the apartments to the dual level terraces, the premium quality of the fixtures and finishes is apparent. In the kitchens there’s bespoke joinery, polished benchtops, timber textures, recessed under-cabinet lighting and tiled detailing, all combined to create a timeless environment of comfort and sophistication.
