About the Project

Footscray doesn’t need to be convinced of its own potential, the evidence is already there. Situated on Ford Street within a major urban renewal corridor, this upcoming two-tower development is positioned to bring a new scale of mixed-use design and office space to the area.

Boasting dual street frontage just metres from Barkly Street, the site is walking distance to Footscray Hospital, Victoria University, and the train station. With an estimated commencement in February 2027, the project taps into a location where the infrastructure is already in and the momentum is real.

Our Projects

Hilda & Electra Street Apartments

Located on Hilda Street and Electra Street, the project comprises 19 apartments on Hilda Street and 21 apartments on Electra Street. Designed with a focus on quality, functionality and long-term liveability, the developments create comfortable and well-considered homes within established residential neighbourhoods.

The project contributes to Homes Victoria’s broader commitment to delivering secure, high-quality housing, with considered architectural responses that balance resident needs, site context and the surrounding community.

Homage Ivanhoe

Homage is a collection of five residences in Ivanhoe’s Fairy Hills, drawing on the suburb’s history of grand riverside estates along the Yarra since the 1840s. Each home presents a monolithic, stone-faced façade echoing that classical heritage, wrapped around a fully modern interior.

Set among shaded, largely unchanged streets minutes from the village and city, materials such as oak herringbone flooring, natural stone, and custom joinery are chosen to age well over a lifetime. Homage stands as a modern interpretation of classical proportion, continuing Ivanhoe’s legacy rather than simply referencing it.

Mornington Peninsula Bespoke Residence

Positioned along the Mornington Peninsula coastline, this bespoke residence reflects thoughtful design, exceptional craftsmanship and a strong connection to its surroundings. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a home that balances refined living with everyday functionality, resulting in a residence that is both timeless and enduring.
