The team behind the new Greensborough apartment development, Albero

The collaboration of four Australian firms, Citinova, InvoDesign, Point Architects, and Biasol, has brought the latest residential development to Greensborough.

Created as “more than just a home”, but rather a sanctuary, Albero presents a collection of 45 one, two and three-bedroom apartments to the leafy Melbourne suburb.

Citinova have long specialised in the residential development space, while also developing hotels, commercial, and industrial buildings to be a major player in the diversified property space. 

The group has a number of projects in the pipeline, including two commercial office projects planned for Werribee. Citinova has developed the Richmond townhouse project, Glassworks, the masterplanned West Pines, the Brooklyn Interchange, as well as the revitalisation of the Ford Cambellfield employment hub. 

“We were inspired to undertake this project because we saw it as the perfect opportunity to create not just a home, but a home that inspires a strong sense of place, embracing all that the location has to offer,” they say about Albero.

“We understand what home is, so we put together a team that genuinely cares about liveability and creating a lasting impression, to of fer homeowners something special that truly embraces its surroundings and the convenience of its location.”

Albero has been designed in collaboration between Melbourne locals, Point Architects and Invo Design.

Established in 2000, the Melbourne Architects Point are a multi-disciplined practice, who say Albero was designed with the understanding of residents’ needs, a thoughtful design concept, and a consideration of construction within the Greensborough locale.

“This process allowed us to create a building that sits harmoniously within the surroundings and will stand the test of time,” they said.

Invo Design are a boutique full-service architecture firm, who have designed a number of projects across Melbourne, as well as interstate, including the multi-residential, Parkside Apartments and the masterplanned, Largs North.

“The intent for Albero was to create a landmark building that still responded to its outer-city urban context and setting,” Invo say.  

“Careful consideration was given to the existing streetscape and it’s surroundings to create a unique and tasteful vision as to what the new benchmark in Multi residential design for the municipality should aspire to be.”
