Footscray – Old meets new. Connected and social, Footscray has an ‘anything goes’ attitude that lets creativity shine and draws communities closer. Its residents come from all over the globe (135 countries to be exact) to share a common love of local life.
More than just a place close to the city, Footscray has a rich history and culture of its own and hosts some of the city’s best festivals. For music lovers, the St Jerome’s Laneway Festival is a must. Big West Biennial Arts Festival, multicultural Emerge in the West and East Meets West Lunar New Year Festivals put Footscray in the spotlight.
Architecture adds to a narrative of Footscray. The series of terrace homes is an original design from DKO Architects, each with its own distinct personality, inspired by the residential and industrial landscape that characterises Melbourne’s best-loved inner western precinct.
The two, three and four-bedroom residences have been designed as separate elements with pitched, flat and angular rooflines to mirror the factories, warehouses and Victorian-era homes of Footscray. Each façade has something a little different and unique to identify it, while materials give the residences a sense of connectivity to each other and the streetscape.
The triple-level homes remain sensitive to the local residential scale and use materials inspired by the history of the neighbourhood. Exposed brick masonry defines the ground level component and extends to the balcony façade for the second level. Brickwork planters introduce a layer of privacy screening and greenery across a robust base that anchors the design.
