11 ENDURING ARCHITECTURE. The Ark project sees Fender K atsalidis continue to shape Melbourne s urban l andscape and cater for the quintessential Melburnian lifestyle. The building responds to the existing Richmond streetscape and references the architectural language of its inner city surroundings while providing for the diverse integrative demands and emotive environmental considerations of the area. Rising away from the street front in asymmetrical, interlocking aspects, the building blends seamlessly with its surroundings yet has a distinctive and robust character. The unique timber roof-top feature imparts a striking visual identity to the project while optimising the building s fantastic city views. The use of timber lends a grounded quality to the building, contrasting natural materials with the sleek aesthetic of metal, glass and polished concrete to reflect its combined residential and retail function. The result is design integrity: a building which is empathetically designed to enrich the streetscape and provide a time proof haven in the midst of Richmond. ARK s unique personality reflects our passion for delivering environmentally appropriate, effortlessly appealing and enduring projects that combine premium design and lifestyle.
