Subtropical design and clever use of materials pay homage to RAAF Veterans through this vertically stacked retirement living project. Urban Strategies have worked closely with Melbourne based Phooey Architects to deliver a retirement living project for RAAF veterans. The project provides a contemporary take on traditional architecture and includes design elements such as a permeable street fronting solar screen, depicting in Morse Code, the names of service veterans involved in the capture of enemy vessels during World War II.
