A triumph of small lot subdivision planning, born of a local icon

This small lot subdivision project began with the partial refurbishment of the commercial shopfront of an iconic local barber. The eclectically-designed shopfront was in good condition, but the area behind was significantly worn down.

The final design assimilated the existing shopfront structure with two 3-bedroom dwellings built on the remaining land behind. The finished product is an exceptional example of a small lot subdivision wherein we used 95% of the available land while creating a softened facade activation to the adjoining street and laneway.

About the
Professional

Design, Town Planning & Development
e+mc2 is a design and development firm born from an obsession with all things related to the building of buildings and the business of business.

Behind this unhealthy obsession is big e; a self-professed property nerd who has a passion for the small footprint ethos of designing your home to harness the space it utilises, not the space it wastes.

Rather than developing healthy hobbies such as football or friends, big e spends his weekends researching new building materials or techniques that can yield higher efficiency in the use of space.

In a quest to develop cost-efficient designs that are both thoughtful and thought-provoking, few things get him more excited than multipurpose objects or spaces.

The projects to date have ranged from compact apartment renovations to spacious stately homes and majestic beachside villas, all following the philosophy whereby function and form must meet in equilibrium.
