How These Townhouse-Style Apartments Integrate Biophilic Design Principles

Описание: Melbourne-based architecture firm DREAMER and Breathe have designed an apartment development in Brunswick, Australia, that encourages family living. Dubbed 388 Barkly Street, the development features two one-bedroom, four two-bedroom and six three-bedroom apartments set inside and above an old red brick warehouse.

DREAMER wanted to provide an alternative to the family home by offering all the amenities of a house in an apartment-style living. The apartments embrace bophilic design principles, so they are flooded with natural light, cross ventilation, views and access to greenery, and natural materials such as timber is used throughout.

The courtyards and incidental outdoor areas have been planted with native flora to encourage local insects and birds to engage. The apartments achieve an average natHERS rating of 7.5 stars, with a 39 kW solar array, future-proofed EV charging and plenty of bike storage.
