Unique breezeway design for Sydney's Lunar
Construction of the $21 million residential development Lunar, 28 km south of Sydney, is slated to begin mid 2017.
If will feature 64 apartments, a basement carpark and a communal landscaped garden.
Ben Pomroy from Rothelowman says that the design for the new development was derived as a response to these natural surroundings and a desire to optimise the apartments’ long-distance views.
“Lunar sits on one of the highest points in the Sutherland Shire, with views north to the CBD and Botany Bay, our scheme had to take advantage of these opportunities, whilst developing a design that addressed and was respectful to the public domain,” he said.
“Our desire was to create a building that embraces the shire’s outdoor lifestyle with apartments that have both front and back yards..
“A place where residents could embrace the views to the north and the east, whilst also giving opportunity for interaction with the street.”
“Capitalising on the area’s temperate climate, the breezeway elevates the traditional corridor to a space where residents can socialise with their neighbours in a pleasant open-air setting.
“Liveability was a significant consideration in the evolution of Lunar’s design and the breezeway supports that.
"We have strived to create a building with the greatest possible access to daylight and fostered natural ventilation that is created with the layouts.”
