As an active, long standing member of Mornington Shire Council’s Design Advisory Panel, BKK has been advocating for better architectural design, urban design and planning controls within this region for many years. From the outset, we recognised that this project provided an opportunity to demonstrate how these ideas could be applied, and to set a benchmark for thoughtful development and high quality design that would successfully respect and maintain a sense of local character and nurture a connected community. Our scheme proposes to rezone and transform a former nursery site located on the Nepean Highway, at the gateway to the Mount Eliza township, into a residential community featuring 25 diverse row-housing-style homes.

Transformative Places, Holistic Benefits
The Mount Eliza Townhouses project is a placed-based design response whilst simultaneously being a people-centric design response. It brings together a sensitive reinterpretation of local planning principles and landscape character, as a community of homes that exist within the landscape and support residents to comfortably weather the changes life brings. Our design proposes to transform this underutilised commercially-zoned site, into a vibrant residential community, carefully embedded within the natural environment.
