Not All High Rise At Green Square

With their soaring ceilings, dramatic voids, flexible spaces, natural light-filled interiors, cross-flow ventilation and outdoor living options, The Zinc Terraces in the Green Square precinct are winning praise for their breakthrough design. The six three-storey Torrens Title terraces at 221-225 Queens Street Beaconsfield total 152sqm internally plus an additional 40sqm of external space. They have three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a top-level &#x27;parents retreat&#x27;, an internal courtyard, front and rear garage and a high level of finishes and inclusions. The Zinc Terraces also contain a practical space with a bathroom and kitchenette built above the garage known as a &#x27;Fonzie Flat&#x27; - a euphuism for the studio occupied by &#x27;The Fonz&#x27; above the Cunningham&#x27;s garage in &#x27;Happy Days&#x27;. MORE READING: Inside Green Square: Sydney&#x27;s $6b Mega Project &quot;We&#x27;ve taken the raw concept of a grand Victorian terrace and redesigned contemporary living spaces, integrating principles of sustainable designs as a commitment to responsible living for the future,&quot; said Gustavo Thiermann of Ink Architects. &quot;We&#x27;ve stacked three levels of living, sleeping, entertaining, and working zones to give residents the flexibility to seek out, and find, a variety of spaces.&quot; Peace and privacy: There is no-one living above or below you. Solid masonry walls separate each terrace, maximising lateral acoustic separation. Street presence: Unlike an apartment, The Zinc Terraces have a separate entity from the street, with a fence, mailbox and front yard, establishing a sense of connection with the neighbourhood. Diversity of space: Most Sydney apartments can be seen an understood in as little as one glance. These terraces, however, have interesting and flexible spaces to explore on every floor. Outdoor options: Most people who move from a house to an apartment bemoan the loss of a front and backyard. These terraces have both. Natural light: Skylights and an open void bring natural light to the vertical circulation spine. All spaces are open to the morning or afternoon sun. Solar access: Large retracting glass panels allow internal spaces to flow seamlessly to a sun drenched courtyard at ground level. Bedrooms enjoy the connection with extensive balconies that provide district views. Entertaining: The rear lane garage connects to the internal courtyard and can be transformed into covered entertaining space. Storage: Generous wardrobes and storage spaces have been cleverly integrated into the slick design.
