parramatta job #10

Still going.....!!!

Here is version 10 of our stretched out Parramatta project.

I think I liked version 9 better. It looked more compact and ordered. But it was a bit smaller in FSR.

Anyhoo... this one is designed with the tower angled and the rear roof angled to ensure minimum of 3 hours of solar access to units behind. Some serious sun studies were done in ArchiCAD to make sure the design was right.

7 & 5 storey building

upper levels have lightweight materials to lighten up the facade
and horizontal openings plus operable sun screens/louvres

bottom 3 levels have a heavier/masonry feel
with fenestration that is vertical and heritage related

the bulk is pushed away from the other adjoining heritage site

tower is chamfered and the roof angled to allow solar access

serious sun study.... the middle ground floor adjacent unit
is the main concern. if we got sunlight to that then we got it to all of them
