Contemporary Colourblock Development featuring innovative use of colourblocking techniques, transforming an ex-industrial site into four tall townhouses, with one unit dedicated to the architect's office, completed in 2010 by Swefa Developments.

The Colourblock Development embodies a contemporary architectural style that stands out in its urban setting. The project creatively utilised colourblocking techniques, with blocks of tiles and paint wrapping walls and ceilings to define and enliven the space.

Designed as a multi-unit dwelling in an ex-industrial area, the development showcases the innovative approach of alsoCAN Architects in transforming a single-house site into 4 tall townhouses. 

The decision to keep one unit for the architect's office reflects the company's commitment to urban creatives, making this project not only a commercial success but also a personal statement.
