|||
The '''North Apartments''', located at 91 [[Goulburn Street]], [[Sydney]], [[Australia]], were designed by the late architect [[Harry Seidler]]. |
|||
Constructed between 2003–04, the building is oriented with a single façade to the North, facing Goulburn Street. |
|||
Each of the 49 apartments features a wave-shaped balcony, so as to accommodate outdoor furniture, at its widened part. The balconies are arranged in a vertically staggered pattern so as to maximise the spatial feeling. As a result, the design breaks away from the usual box-like structures associated with 'infill' development. |
|||
Colour is introduced into the [[façade]] by the use of integrally permanent coloured [[toughened glass]] on the balconies' end rails and dividing screens. There are a mixture of primary and neutral coloured accents all over the façade, giving the building a lively appearance. |
|||
The apartments are designed following a split-level planning system, which results in a ceiling height of 2.85 m over the living area and 2.7 m in the raised bedrooms. These raised bedrooms have no windows, and open onto the lounge area. The building contains commercial space on the ground floor, and an indoor lap pool. The [[Lobby (room)|foyer]] of the building features a wall hanging of [[Woven fabric|woven]] carpet, based on a wall mural in [[Rose Seidler House]], painted by Seidler in 1950. |
