Tramway

Contemporary Exterior, Melbourne

The unusual shaped site in Beaumaris, triggered an innovative design response by Vibe Design; unique in both shape and form. Inspired by the client’s involvement with motorsport, Vibe created a modern facade, referencing the feel of the track. A sense of movement is created, as the zinc-clad box appears to have dropped in part to create a private entry with balcony over. A battened timber system was not only used to balance the façade, it also disguises the vehicle access, and partially screens the windows in the primary living area from passers by.
