An Architects Mixed Use Apartment For His Family of Four

Melbournebased architect Chris Megowan of Megowan Architectural initially designed his apartment for just his wife and himself, however, that changed when they found out they were having twins. What stayed the same was the desire to live and work in the same building, so his architecture practice s office sits below his apartment. This development isn t like most conventional buildings that stack apartments on top of each other, rather they intersect and have multiple levels individually, creating an almost Tetrislike arrangement. For his own apartment, Chris went with robust and hardwearing materials for the interior, avoiding having a museumlike home which you re worried to live in with a family.
