Looking for an apartment with more light, more space and more life? Gungahlin’s newest apartment development may be what you are looking for.
Designed around the site’s existing 300-year-old yellow box eucalyptus tree, the two thoughtfully designed Lumi Collection buildings have been developed to harmonise with nature and the surrounds and offer the highest standards in thermal efficiency, meaning you won’t be struggling through Canberra’s hot summers and cold winters.
Lumi is centrally located in the vibrant Gungahlin waterfront precinct, offering diverse leisure options at your doorstep and within easy reach of the city.

A thriving residential area, Gungahlin offers endless dining, shopping and other leisure experiences, and the Lumi Collection’s Swain Street location on the western edge of the Gungahlin town centre is only a short walk to Gungahlin Marketplace, bars, cafes and light rail.
The Lumi Collection’s 1, 2 and 3 bedroom units have been designed, developed and delivered by long-standing Canberra family firms with a vision to leave a proud and lasting legacy in their buildings, implementing innovations with a keen eye for detail that owners will appreciate for years to come.
Lumi is now complete and ready to be experienced personally so buyers can appreciate the Lumi difference. Prices range from $375,000 to $1,500,000.

Rather than consuming the site’s full footprint, the Canberra-based, award-winning architects Townsend + Associates Architects looked at alternate ways to achieve the right density on the site using the smallest building footprint possible. The result? A spacious setting that offers leisure options within the grounds.
T2, the smaller 7-storey building, is the same height as the magnificent 300-year-old tree, fully incorporating its presence to create a strong connection between the building and the landscape. The taller building, T1, embraces the smaller T2 building with a similar plan.
An accessible pocket park centred around the tree also provides a public thoroughfare through the site linking the town centre with Yerrabi Pond recreational facilities.
Lumi apartments have Canberra’s highest average energy rating of 8.5 stars, some are as high as 10 stars, and use less energy to heat and cool, reducing running costs.
Both buildings were designed to significantly increase the number of apartments with good northern orientation, allowing residents to make the most of the winter sun. The separated tower forms provide opportunities to naturally cross ventilate apartments, making full use of the prevailing north-west winds.

KDN Group managing director George D Katheklakis says the Lumi Collection building is a standout development.
“We have been able to maintain the integrity of this building from beginning to end. Their performance has not been compromised. Every apartment has a framed outlook and every apartment is comfortable to live in. When committing to something like thermal performance and energy efficiency, you can’t take short cuts,” George said.
Each Lumi apartment provides a healthy indoor environment where air quality, allergens and hygiene are managed through a range of features starting with natural cross ventilation, optimal solar orientation and natural lighting and topped off with apartment-specific heat recovery units.
LJ Hooker Project Marketing selling agent Andrew Ligdopoulos says smart design and thoughtful planning are the heart of the Lumi Collection.
“The fundamental design brief was for large floor plans and entertainer-sized balconies. The generous recessed balconies are a true extension of your indoor living space and the high 2.7-metre ceilings and 2.4-metre thermally broken double-glazed balcony doors and windows amplify the light and space in each apartment,” Andrew said.
“There are 1, 2 and 3 bedroom Lumis still available with several different layouts, and many of them have some outstanding views. This is a unique opportunity to buy into a lifestyle apartment that will set the standard for development in Gungahlin for years to come.”
