ABOUT

Rowville Terraces project is a cluster of 10 terraces. Located off Stud Road service lane, the site is a consolidation of two standard residential corner lots.

There are a variety of dwellings types and sizes- 3 storey dwellings with a mix of 3 & 4 bedrooms face Stud Road, while 2 storey, 3 bedroom dwellings are located along the side street.

DESIGN

Dwelling entries are front street and along the internal pedestrian path while a single driveway provides car access. This site planning segregates cars and pedestrians, thereby making the place safe and accessible for its occupants- composed mainly of young families and down-sizers.

The terraces are designed with a practical hands-on approach to liveability, self-sufficiency and affordability. The majority of the dwellings have one bedroom and bathroom downstairs. All dwellings have either appropriately sized courtyards or terraces for recreational needs. Living and bedrooms spaces have large windows for plenty of daylighting and ventilation. Plenty of segregated internal storage that is deemed vital and practical.  Sustainable design features such as rainwater harvesting & re-use, solar-powered electricity and hot water along with energy-efficient and low impact internal fittings are expected to create comfort and self-sufficiency.

Contemporary built-form and exterior finishes create a balanced and engaging building. The design explores the ‘buildings within a building’ idea where each dwelling has an individuality whilst being part of a larger group.

Outdoor spaces form a vital part of living- hard and soft landscaping is designed and specified to create a pleasant outdoor recreation experience.

About the
Professional

R ARCHITECTURE is an Australian architecture practice with a passion for bringing great design to suburban contexts.

We work hard to understand your requirements and share your aspirations. By demonstrating a willingness to listen and collaborate, being accountable and solutions focused, we aim to build a strong, trusting relationship as we guide you through the design and construction process.

Our approach to design is really flexible to your preferences and budget. We don’t pursue a particular style or aesthetic. The only thing we insist on is a great design outcome.

While our project work is diverse, every project delivers on our clients’ dreams and makes an exemplary contribution to the community.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
