Blackwattle - Architecture Symposium 2020

Turner’s Director Dan Szwaj was proud to present the Blackwattle Apartments at the 2020 Architecture Symposium.

Blackwattle delivers a mixed use precinct in Glebe, including 99 affordable apartments. The project embodies our passion and commitment to designing a sustainable and affordable community where residents feel proud of where they live.

The design response is contextual; it is a building that interacts with the environment around it in order to define the building character and form. Ultimo is typified with large warehouse buildings, industrial facades, repetition in openings and roof forms. Glebe, on the other hand, is smaller in scale and has individual buildings that are ornate in detail, include patterned brickwork and decorative ironwork.
