A'Beckett Tower




"A’Beckett TowerThe A’Beckett Tower proposal will provide high quality residential apartment accommodation situated within the academic precinct of Melbourne CBD. The apartments will address the needs of professionals/academics with a desire to live and work in the city; while complimenting the level of eccentric design in this area of the city. The autumnal screen façade addressing A’Beckett street acts primarily as a shading and privacy device to the apartments; however it also maintains a level of articulation which the precinct demands."





Dad bought an apartment in Melbourne, apparently for investments later on, and hopefully her daughter gets a place for school there so that she can get a chance to stay in a almost studio like apartment. And thankfully, they've gotten the unit with window in both rooms, as there are some units without window in the second bedroom. Living without window is depressing cause there's no separation or the slightest indication of day and night.


And upon looking at those pictures of the apartment facade, it suddenly struck her mind - Folding Architecture, and that little folding thing Syafiq did.
