PROJECT COMPLETION | Terrace House is complete! It was truly a privilege to have had the opportunity to bring to life Austin Maynard Architects unique urban residential development, right in the heart of Brunswick on the outskirts of Melbourne’s CBD.
Terrace House comprises 20 homes with a mixture of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, 70 bike parks, and 3 commercial spaces.
Unlike traditional apartment buildings, the Terrace House development is based off traditional terrace house plans stacked six stories high, giving the building its unique front and rear façades.
As builders, there were numerous challenges to overcome to ensure we delivered on the sense of community and the environmental sustainability that were key features in the Terrace House design. For example, none of the apartments have heating or cooling but are able to maintain a constant 21-degree temperature year-round. The development also has no gas, is fossil fuel free, and includes energy recovery units in every apartment.
A big thank you to the Kapitol team, Austin Maynard Architects and the contractors who collaborated on this project with us. We’re really proud to hand this development over to the residents who now call Terrace House their home.
