Project Description
We splice six skinny plots into three supersites, then stack six plug-and-play homes on each, like LEGO bricks for grown-ups.
A universal core slashes build time and cost, yet the outer skin shape-shifts: brick pixels here, timber fins there, metal folds next door.
The street becomes a graphic novel instead of a photocopy, continuity on the inside, curated chaos on the outside.
Pragmatic utopia in action: efficiency that refuses to look efficient.

Clayton hacks the podium typology: zero-threshold NDIS homes stitch directly to the street, while a stack of light-wells lifts private dwellings into the treetops. One looping ramp, part corridor, part community promenade, makes accessibility the project’s main spatial event. Balconies bite into the facade, pocket gardens inhale daylight, and sliding glass dissolves the line between inside and Melbourne’s sky.The result: an equality diagram masquerading as an apartment block, every resident enters the same story, just on a different page.
