"Winner of the 2007 Think Brick Competition, our proposal was a housing model for ‘empty-nesters' and ‘new-nesters' that addressed housing affordability, housing choice and issues of social interaction, on a recycled suburban site -that of our Five Dock House. The proposal triples the density with three 125m2 two bedroom houses (equivalent area to an average sized terrace) positioned along the boundary opening to a north-east orientation. We propose the medium density low-rise development of existing large suburban lots in well serviced areas, an important way of providing greater suburban density, making suburban lifestyle sustainable."

Thanks to Neeson Mercutt

The home is developed beyond the single dwelling, it becomes a neighborhood scale. they have thought about how the houses would impact on each other, work together and provide diversity.
