Bangalay Residences / A Vela Unvelum Architecture & Interiors

Bangalay Residences, nestled in the coastal suburb of Queenscliff, NSW, finds its place within a challenging environment—a narrow infill site bordered by towering four-story brick apartments, with additional units tucked at the rear. The site's constraints, alongside the commanding presence of a mature bangalay tree and the scale of neighboring buildings, demanded a design that not only maximized space but also seamlessly blended with its urban surroundings. Balancing internal planning needs with external urban conditions necessitated a careful interplay between volumetric spaces and the surrounding envelope.
