151 Toorak Road features in INDESIGNLIVE.

Jan Henderson writes 'With a nod to the past and a design concept for the future, 151 Toorak Road by Bird de la Coeur Architects is both at home among its heritage neighbours in South Yarra, Melbourne and singular in form.  . . .  However, this building has sustainability at its core through its materiality and design and adaptability that is built in.'

Whilst it is now a commercial building its corner location and narrow site with windows on three sides also make it ideal for residential use. We have built in the potential for residential flexibility and set the floor-to-floor heights so that it can adapt comfortably. Like a warehouse, its designed as a flexible, sustainable shell that suits many types of occupation.
