Multiple Dwellings for Affordable Living.

This is an early image of my next project for affordable living apartments in Nollamara. There are many extra rules and regulations that must be followed in this council in order to gain approval and to add to the pressure the council is soon to ban this type of development on this lot and others in the lower density so it's urgent to have it submitted as soon as possible. Together with an experienced Town Planner, Grandesign has prepared a solution that is ready to be submitted.

Multiple Dwellings in Osborne Park

This client has a regular suburban lot with a single old house but because of the increased density from recent planning changes, and a new market opening up for apartment living in the suburbs, we have the opportunity to create eight apartments with two bedroom, two bathroom, two carport / store setup for more affordable living.

These images are not the finished ones but are enough to indicate the final product.

Apartments in Perth have generally been confined to central city locations either in Perth itself or in one of the regional city locations such as Fremantle overlooking water or in Joondalup. But with the rapid increase in land prices putting the option of buying a house or even a small unit out of the price range of many people, apartments are becoming an option and are ideally suited for young people with no children and no desire to look after a yard.
