LOCATION: PILBARA, WESTERN AUSTRALIA
During the refurbishment of the Asthma Foundation offices in West Perth, PAd. provided pro bono consultancy services to aid the development of a universal access compliant solution
Role:
The Pilbara is an unforgiving landscape where a thorough understanding of the environment is paramount. To enhance the liveability and ensure the requested environmentally conscious approach was adhered to for this 6 Unit development, PAd. employed several principles to the design to ensure the underlining environmental requirements were met.
Through employing lightweight construction to reduce thermal mass, cross flow ventilation planning for cooling winter breezes, a rectilinear floor plate and the provision of deep expansive balconies to aid in protection to glazed elements all contributed to this development achieving a 6.3 star energy rating.
A contemporary approach paying homage to the Queensland vernacular style.
