A project for two sisters and their community, this collection of fourteen apartments and townhouses embodies Breathe’s values of thoughtful, sustainable and connected design.
Referencing the site’s industrial past, a saw-tooth hit-and-miss brick screen echoes the former warehouse and provides privacy between neighbours. Ten one-bedroom townhouses are located at ground floor as build-to-rent homes — compact yet generous in amenity, designed to support long-term living in a well-connected urban context.
At the heart of the project are two bespoke homes for the sisters, a music studio and two additional apartments. To the rear of the site, a once gated and neglected lane has been returned to the public realm and landscaped, providing a space for residents and neighbours to gather.
Sustainability underpins every design decision — an all-electric development, carbon-neutral brickwork, 40% cement reduction in concrete and 9-star average NatHERS energy rating.
We acknowledge the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation, the Traditional Custodians of the land upon which Two Sisters stands. We recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and culture.
