By RUBI Architects
These spacious townhouses in Oak Park, Victoria, include five three-bedroom dwellings to fit luxury lifestyle close to local amenities and the city. RUBI Architects were tasked with documenting the project ready for construction.
It is a contemporary approach to urban architecture that has given rise to these residences, which employ natural timber, metallic cladding finishes and brick walls that integrate nicely with the landscape while yet standing out brilliantly. A well-planned three-story structure on a sloped site provides enough opportunity for high-end suburban city living.
Here at RUBI Architects, we’re a cohesive collective of passionate creatives. Working together with our individual skill sets and personalities – to respectfully listen, learn and to achieve the very best outcome with every project that crosses our desk.
The idea of home is changing faster than ever before.
No longer a sanctuary from the outside world, our homes are a place where all facets of life intersect. Work, study and personal lives occur under the one roof and, more than ever, we’re aware of our responsibility to the planet.
Even so, some things have not changed. The pleasure of self-expression through your home. The satisfaction of building with natural, honest materials. And the joy of feeling connected with your surrounds.
At RUBI, we design residences and multiresidential developments that will stand for generations. That means looking forward to the future, while still honouring the fundamentals that make home an inviting, human space.
We believe in great design ... but we're also realists (and that's a good thing)
That's why we have a hands-on directorial team with equal strengths in architecture and construction management. Their diversity of skills and global experience give you confidence you're receiving top-tier service from an approachable team. Alex and Antonio are with you for the life of your project, openly sharing their design and technical insights.
Great design is buildable design
Here’s the thing; good architecture does not need to be pretentious in complexity or novelty in order to be experiential. We believe good design balances sustainability, craftsmanship and the wellbeing of people. It prioritises locally sourced materials, flows with the rhythm of life and makes a positive contribution to a neighbourhood.
