The Siding

Multi-Residential

Located at 84 Rutland Avenue in Lathlain, The Siding is a diverse mix of seven townhouses and apartments, situated in close proximity to Victoria Park train station. The project is the result of a collaborative effort with the award winning Green Swing team. It represents another step along a continuing journey to design and build more sustainable communities and neighbourhoods in inner city Perth.

Sid Thoo architect-project the siding 4 — The Siding is a 7-dwelling development consisting of a mix of grouped and multiple dwellings located adjacent to the Victoria Park train station.

Sid Thoo architect-project the siding 5 — The shared outdoor spaces include productive garden beds and waterwise vegetation, along with rainwater tanks.

Sid Thoo architect-project the siding 6 — The development was divided into three distinct housing blocks, which is similar to the bulk and scale of neighbouring dwellings.

Sid Thoo architect-project the siding 7 — The design of the shading awnings and eaves overhangs ensure adequate shade in summer while still allowing maximum solar gain during winter.
