We looked to capitalise on the heritage of the area and developed a concept deeply grounded in the Subiaco context. The outcome will be a building of permanence and fine detailing, that references Deco verandas and shopfronts.

The unencumbered views out to the south are prioritised, but not at the expense of the buildings’ thermal qualities and solar performance. There is depth to the façade with the glass set back into the composition, while a handful of arched moments add a sense of delight and intrigue.

Extensive landscaping covers the building with planters from Level 1 that utilise the building steps to create generous soil depth to add a layer of softscape.
