We’re proud to be a trusted name in development backed by years of experience. Erben has delivered a range of sustainable and award-winning projects valued at more than $1 billion, creating lasting value and enhancing communities.
We first opened our doors in 2005, and it’s safe to say that a lot has happened since then. Over time, we’ve continued to change and evolve, learning from the past to create a strong foundation for the future.
We’re bold and curious by nature, with a passion for innovative thinking and turning possibilities into real-life opportunities. Every project we deliver has its own distinct character, underpinned by innovative sustainability and design to create long-term value for residents.
Above all, we create spaces that adapt to the lives and needs of those who live and work there. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions, but take a holistic approach to ensure all connections are considered. Our experience continues to shape who we are and where we’re going, and we’re proud to build on that into the future.
