St Stephens

By Team Architects

Profile
St Stephens banner

A sophisticated andurbane 5-storey apartment building. It features natural self finishing
materials in grey tones, a pared back modern aesthetic somewhat understated yet dressy. Now 8 years on it appears quite timeless.

Bulk & Location restraints were resolved by citing the main building form angled to the main boundaries. This prevented awkward angled or faceted walls from impinging on the internal room layouts. The diagonal siting of the building also
reduces its effective bulk from the street while orientating to view axis.

The exterior features a selection of natural materials including grey quartz aggregate finish to the precast concrete structural walls, projecting bays and spandrels in light natural zinc, aluminium joinery and shutters finished in ‘natural steel’ coloured powder coat. Spacious apartment interiors open onto 6m wide fully covered terraces. High coved ceilings, a variety of interior finishing materials and finishes have created apartments with personality and interest.
