The design response takes on a duality of form that wraps around itself on elevation.The white rectilinear form harmoniously juxtaposes with a strong, dark curvaceous body that drapes over the lower form.
Appointed like a boutique hotel, Society offers a sophisticated lobby with doorman, ground floor food and beverage precinct including a reception bar and the Suds launderette. The entire building is managed through an intranet from a residential concierge to an in-room music selection.

Residents are encouraged to linger in the sophisticated Society lobby bar, very much like a boutique hotel. Alternatively, residents can choose to work or catch up on the day’s digital social networking in the specifically designed private laptop pods.

The impressive lobby and courtyard bar leads out to a tranquil landscaped bamboo garden. Catch the elevator to the top floor where a glamorous dining room awaits to entertain guests, featuring a generous outdoor balcony complete with roof top spas for the ultimate roof deck, pool or dinner party. A residents gymnasium is also on level 12.

Era boasts a large central courtyard landscaped around a pool, BBQ facilities and lawn areas, and also offers a gym, library, meeting rooms and private cinema for all residents, commercial and residential.

Era has been carefully designed to suit the character of Richmond, presenting a highly contextual, finely grained, and interesting rejuvenation of a previously run down, post industrial Richmond site.

The goal is to create a highly connected, interwoven series of programs that generate a critical mass of activity, population and place making. Shops, secure parking and offices combine with cafés and restaurants to open out onto plazas and landscaping. Overlooking this are the private apartments. Careful planning has ensured the maximum number of apartments have city views and a sunny northerly aspect.

The architectural expression of Tooronga Village is governed by two archetypal elements; podium and tower. Each is informed by program, site and boundary conditions. The podium is a lifted folding ground plane that recalls an imagined landscape.It is set into the hillside and held up by dynamic sculptural web or tree like columns.

Users are able to access the development at multiple levels of ‘ground floor’ entry, continually challenging the notion of what lies above and below. The roof of the podium becomes a ground plane for the towers, restaurants, plazas and gardens.

The two apartment towers above form a more reserved backdrop to the public spaces below. The facades are a collection of snapshots of the city skyline they face. Rectilinear forms and frames break down the building faces into a collection of scaled elements rising out of this new urban-suburban village.
