WAREHOUSE, COMMENDATION - RESIDENTIAL ARCHITECTURE - MULTIPLE HOUSING, AUSTRALIAN INSTITUTE OF ARCHITECTS ACT CHAPTER 2019
Warehouse is a radical departure from conventional ‘off the plan’ apartment living. Inspired by the Hundertwasser ideal of a tenant's right of self-expression, the project has been designed to evolve with its occupants, offering an affordable ‘warm-shell’ chassis that can be tailored to meet resident’s changing needs. Internal planning provides flexible open-plan living including a convertible wintergarden, creating potential for a one or two-bedroom module apartment. Bold and legible in form, Warehouse emphasises design rationality with elegant expression through material and structural efficiency.
