ARCHITECT ADRIAN AMORE
Good architecture is a meeting of form and function. Great architecture takes these elements and elevates the union into art. Enter the Melbourne loft apartment designed by Adrian Amore Architects. It won the Residential Design Award at the 2014 Australian Interior Design Awards, and has caught the eye of editors across the world. Since establishing his practice in 2008, Adrian has worked on a range of commercial and residential projects, including Nique in Melbourne's St Kilda and the Sydney home of Gourmet Traveller editor, Anthea Loucas.
