Welcome to Capital Hill Apartments

The Capital Hill Apartments are located on State Circle in the inner-south suburb of Forrest, Canberra, with Parliament House and its surrounding bushlands over the road.

Since the Capital Hill Apartments are located within the National Capital Plan, the plan by Alex Popov, met planning requirements, including a 3-storey height limitation.

The development required a concept which not only accommodated the functional program but dealt with the bigger urban order of its location. Rather than locating isolated buildings in the landscape, the development establishes a dialogue with the surrounding context and Griffin’s plan. With Parliament House as the centre of the hub, State Circle is seen as the wheel, and the four apartment blocks are developed from a radial geometry to define the edge of this ‘wheel’. There is a total of 63 apartments.
