Commercial Building

This building is within the heritage overlay, therefore maintaining the shopfront while integrating modern design that suits the current market need has been our goal.

​

One of the challenges of this design was that none of the four walls were right-angled, each corner was at a different angle, therefore being a fully accessible building with A.S. wheelchair turning spaces, ramps etc. consideration.

​

Another problem we've encountered was that while we were just about to receive our permit after a few FRIs, this project was passed on to another council planner who rejected most parts of the design, and I had to quickly negotiate with the person in charge and amend our design in time.
