THE LOCAL PROJECT VISIT PARKLIFE
Located within Nightingale Village in Brunswick, Melbourne, ParkLife by Austin Maynard Architects is one of Australia’s most sustainable apartment buildings.
Grounded in an environmentally centric approach and defined by its contextual relevance, it is a compelling prototype for Australia’s most sustainable multi-residential project. As the practice Director Andrew Maynard explains, ParkLife channels the idea of “density done well” and there are several factors that support its standing as one of Australia’s most sustainable projects. The building, which Andrew refers to as a “sustainability machine”, has an average NatHERS rating of 9.1 stars, and every apartment features an energy recovery ventilator that helps to stabilise temperatures, resulting in lower running costs.
