01 BANKSIA BAYSIDE TOWNHOUSES, MELBOURNE

One of the principle aims of this design by Robert Harwood Architects was to raise people’s expectations and broaden the possibilities of what townhouse living can be. The distinctive angled facade design provides individuality and interest to each home. Part of the townhouses’ architectural design solution was to introduce a fresh palette of materials that are practical, hard-wearing and aesthetically compatible with the surrounding Bay-side context. The chosen palette was inspired by the blue/grey bushland and the adjacent grey and cream brick commercial building. Interior colour selection pays homage to the muted tones of the neighbourhood’s mid-century modern homes, with an emphasis on dusky pinks, blues and white. harwoodarchitects.com
