The project, located in Melbourne, pushes creativity and design with CLT as standard construction system to new frontiers. The unique layout sees a series of apartments that each pass through the building North to South and split on two levels. This format allows for frontage on both sides of the building and a simple system for natural cross building air flow. The project is designed around community integration in an urban environment while still enabling individual tenancy.
105 Punt Road is 8 stories tall with two concrete cores. Currently under development we believe this project represents a new dynamic for Cross Laminated Timber, using the Mass Timber system efficiently while adapting to a new refined set of modern design constraints.
It is still unclear who will be supplying the CLT for the project, but we imagine that in the near future as more local producers in NZ and AUS come online there will be a greater push for domestic product from relatively local managed forests.
