Loftier House - Shortlisted for an Award

Our 3 Storey Nunawading Project has been Shortlisted for a Design Award in the 2019 City of Whitehorse Built Environment Awards. The City of Whitehorse Built Environment Awards celebrate the value of good design, creative thinking and sustainability in the built environment.

The Awards showcase the best in design and recognise the people who contribute to good design and sustainable practice within the City of Whitehorse. Its great to receive recognition for the second time on this project following the HIA Awards end of last year. Fingers crossed its named as a winner in its category.

This three storey contemporary home is a response to creative thinking around how to provide a generous family home on a small piece of subdivided land in an established neighbourhood.

The triangular land with a significant easement influenced the building form and small footprint.  To sit comfortably in the streetscape the front 2.5 story façade was designed to give the impression of a two storey appearance.  

Along with responding to the site and wider streetscape, a key objective was to design and build the project using standard construction methods for a cost effective build price while using clever design to create a high end architectural feel.
