The Hive Apartments has to be one of our favorite buildings of 2012. We've shared images a few times and now, thanks to the folks at Acclaim magazine, can offer a better look at the space. Zvi Belling of ITN Architects designed this home in collaboration with graffiti artist Prowla. Located in the Collingwood area of Melbourne, Australia, this is the first building that incorporates graffiti themes throughout the entire design—ceiling,furniture,windows,etc.

Watch the video to walk through Hive Apartments with Zvi.
