墨尔本 Dover Townhouses丨澳大利亚墨尔本丨Dood Studio

Dover Townhouses is a pair of contemporary homes located in Melbourne, Australia, designed in 2019 by Dood Studio.

Description

Located in a heritage zone in inner city Melbourne; a pair of brothers build a pair of contemporary townhouses so their young families could grow up side-by-side.

While being strikingly contemporary; the design lends its form and rhythm to the existing heritage streetscape.

The dwellings use a unique timber batten cladding which floats over the facade, doors and roof to create a simple gable form which mimics that of its neighbours.
