Designed to respond to a challenging site located on the busy Wakefield Avenue, the living space amenity is protected through a number of design interventions, including generous courtyards and outdoor spaces, strategic landscaping and setbacks.
All 8 townhouses enjoy complete north orientation with direct solar access to living areas and seamless connections to the outdoor private open space.
Efficiency in planning and reinterpretation of traditional living concepts creates large open plan living and generous bedrooms. Juliet-style balconies create a sense of openness and opportunity for effective cross-ventilation, without a compromise to the sizes of internal areas.
The north facade of the development steps back at each floor level, ensuring solar access to the neighboring sites is preserved.
Architecturally, the project sits unassumingly within the changing context of the Dickson precinct, with its focus on purity in material performance and excellence in design and construction.
