MARDON TERRACES

This urban intervention is apt to boost the community of an aging Hamilton suburb. Sixteen townhouses are arranged around a picturesque drive with gardens. Fostering social interaction through density, enabling street surveillance, and situated near wider urban amenities, this development stands to catalyse community bonds and activity.

Interior spaces are compact, but comfortable and cater to a diversity of tenants. Simple and elegant building forms enhance buildability while maintaining beauty in aesthetic and familiarity. A calming material palette of subdued whites and greys faces the street, giving way to an inner colour scheme that emphasises the materials’ robustness.
