Situated in a neighbourhood with predominately 2 to 3 storey commercial and residential buildings, the new building massing is broken down into smaller volumes with a distinct 3 storey projection scaling down to a group of 2 storey townhouses to the north.
Transparency is provided for the amenity space on the ground floor providing views to the major Bay & Cannon Street intersection and vice versa.
The building is designed to meet Passive House standards with a high performance super air-tight building envelope, triple glazed windows, 0 thermal – conductance and energy recovery ventilation mechanical system. The building intends to achieve Passive House certification.
