Canberra’s Design Icon Apartments present a suite of unique short to medium term living spaces that are furnished with a curated selection of highly desirable mid-century modern pieces by noted Australian designers like Grant Featherston, or international stars Verner Panton, Vico Magistretti and Achille Castiglioni.

Presented furniture and lighting is consistent with the quality and aspirational tone of the hotel, offering the discerning guest, archi tourist or creative on assignment, the possibility to live in an environment more akin to a gallery, than a hotel room. The designer apartment spaces have a tangible emotion, established through mood lighting, colour, fabrics and finishes.

Recognizable designer pieces are offset by surprising pairings with objects, artwork and furniture selected for their impact or emotional value.

All design apartments share the common ingredients of console, lounge system, occasional table, lighting idea, dining suite; study chair and desk lamp; as well as signature bedroom chair, bedside tables and lamps.

For the guest wishing to differentiate their travel experience from standard accommodations, these NewActon design suites provide art directed living spaces that encourage clients to return to experience each design apartment or return to their preferred interior environment.

Home to the apartments, NewActon is a lakeside urban village alive with restaurants, cafes, bars, offices, Palace Electric cinema, meandering gardens and every must have facility – in the historic, city edge area of Acton, only a short walk to the Canberra CBD, theatre district, cultural institutions or Lake Burley Griffin.
