RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT (OPTION 2)
Avondale
Heights VIC
Designed for VicUrban as a part of a larger residential and mixed
use development on the site of the former Avondale Heights Secondary
School, the second iteration of this project has 16 terrace houses
and 24 apartments on a site less that 1 acre in area. The east
and west side of this development are clearly delineated beween
terrace and apartment models but the design of the whole site
is treated in a singular fashion. A single roof pitch across the
conceptually site connects the two storey terraces to the three
level walk-up apartments. The material pallete of dark coloured
bricks, natural timber and light coloured steel picket fencing
is consistent throughout and distinguishes the development from
the traditional cream and red brick buildings common to the suburb.
