Shop Top Housing Northern Rivers
Originally the building was used as a pub with accommodation above, but today has retail at the bottom and otherwise vacant rooms above used as storage during floods. The owner wanted a concept to see how many apartments could comfortably fit in the upper level. The design proposes 5 apartments, each one unique in configuration and features light wells for stack ventilation, french balconies and tall ceilings. The project will be a precedent for shop top housing in the region.
