Design Concept: Unnamed

The development aims to utilise the strength of a monocoque structural approach to generate both economic manufacturing and constructional solutions whilst also generating greater three dimensional spatial opportunities. Courtyard units which maximise use of internal and external spaces are an effective solution to high density urban living. The design of the dwellings maximises daylight and natural ventilation. This helps to lower electricity loads, and reduces the need for heating and cooling, which is further enhanced through good insulation, efficiency of the building form and thermal mass.
