THE SPACE The Hive Graffiti Apartments is a building inspired by street art and hip hop culture. A larger than life concrete graffiti relief façade complete with arrows, swooshes and drips has been knitted into the existing heritage brick shell of an old Carlton shop. An urban street is celebrated by making permanent this ephemeral art. The interior has been shaped by the expressive hip hop language of the façade, remnants of the existing brickwork, beehive patterned travertine floors and a designer furniture selection. This building is the first in a trilogy of street art architecture by ITN Architects. The entire ground floor apartment and patio area is available for short stay rental. The apartment is 3 minutes walk (650 metres) from Melbourne University. It is also walking distance to Australian Catholic University, RMIT and other academic institutions located in Melbourne CBD. This spacious 75 sqm one bedroom apartment can easily convert into two bedrooms with a sofa bed and privacy screen. Complete with a 1970's Bang & Olufson hi-fi system and record player, you can enjoy Melbourne from this inner city street-art haven!

The suburb is well known for its "Little Italy" precinct on Lygon Street, for its Victorian architecture and its garden squares including the Carlton Gardens.
